5.1
Indoor Installation
Read the instructions provided in this chapter thoroughly before installing the CM-3211/4221-00,
CM-3211/4221-10, or CM-3211/4221-10-I. Following are additional considerations for indoor
installation:
There must be a fuse or circuit breaker at the starting point of the electrical wiring
infrastructure.
For indoor installations, such as industrial applications, the camera must be protected from
hostile external elements (e.g. corrosive environment, metallic dust, extreme temperatures,
soot, moisture, over spray, etc.).
Do not place the camera on or near radiators and heat sources.
All electrical work must be performed in accordance with local regulatory requirements.
5.2
Outdoor Installation
Read the instructions provided in this chapter thoroughly before installing the CM-3211/4221-01,
CM-3211/4221-11, or CM-3211/4221-11-I camera. Following are additional considerations for
outdoor installation:
For outside wiring installation, always use weatherproof equipment, such as boxes,
receptacles, connectors, etc.
For electrical wiring, use the properly rated sheathed cables for conditions to which the
cable will be exposed (for example, moisture, heat, UV, physical requirements, etc.).
Plan ahead to determine where to install infrastructure weatherproof equipment. Whenever
possible, ground components to an outdoor ground.
Use best security practices to design and maintain secured camera access, communications
infrastructure, tamper-proof outdoor boxes, etc.
All electrical work must be performed in accordance with local regulatory requirements.
