Positioning the Camera

The camera module position can be adjusted along the horizontal, vertical, and diagonal (for 

azimuth) axes. When adjusting the position, ensure that the picture displayed on the monitor 

is level. After the covert liner is removed, position the camera by performing the following 

steps:

1.

For horizontal (pan) adjustment, loosen the thumbscrew at the platform base and rotate 

the camera (left or right) to the desired position. The camera can be rotated up to 360º 

between stops. If it hits the stop before achieving the desired position, rotate it in the 

opposite direction. Retighten the thumbscrew to secure the camera.

2.

For vertical adjustment (tilt), loosen the thumbscrew at the tilt wheel and position the 

camera (up or down) to the desired position. The camera can be tilted up to 110º 

between stops. Retighten the thumbscrew to secure the camera. 

3.

To compensate for angled ceilings or sidewall mounts, push the camera inward toward 

its base and rotate it until the image on the monitor is horizontal. The camera can be 

rotated up to 300º between stops.

WARNING! 

To prevent damage to the camera module do not rotate the camera past its stops.

CAUTION! 

The CCD image sensors are highly sensitive and require special care for proper performance 

and extended lifetime. Do not expose it to direct sunlight or bright spotlights in operating and 

non-operation conditions. Avoid bright lights in the field of view of the camera.
