System Setup
Unpacking Components
The Spectrum 45™ camera is shipped in a rugged case or is installed on an integrated system.
Packaging is selected to protect the camera from damage during shipping or storage. Upon receiving
your system, check the case and contents for any damage that may have occurred during transport.
Should any of these components be missing or damaged, please notify your vendor. We suggest that
when the system is re-shipped or stored for any length of time, it should be re-packaged in its original
case or be put in a cardboard box encased in high-density foam. It is also strongly advised that the case
be placed in a cardboard box again for shipping purposes. This measure greatly reduces rough handling
and subsequent shipping damage.

The Spectrum 45 camera may come installed on an Eddyfi Technologies robotic vehicle using 3x SS M3
SHCS. The camera may be mounted in any orientation.
For custom mounting
, the rear end cap has three clearance holes for M3 screws and the tube has three
M3 tapped holes to be used for a custom-made mounting bracket

28 mm (Ø1.12 in) clearance for the connector and locking collar. The camera may be
mounted in any orientation.
Alternatively, the camera may be clamped around the stationary portion of the 44.5 mm (1.75 in) diameter
