Q26 Camera Manual: Installation
2.3 Mounting the Camera with the On-Wall Set
2.3.1 Mounting Instructions
On-Wall sets available in 0° and 10° inclinations allow fast and simple installation of the
Q26 on a wall or room ceiling. When using the set outdoors (IP65), ensure that the screw
holes on the rear of the camera housing are sealed with the included foam rubber washers.
It is not possible to install the on-wall set directly above an on-wall or flush-mounted outlet.
Installation using the 10° On-Wall Set is often the right choice if a Q26 is to be used as a
panorama camera installed at a greater than usual height (3 m or higher). Tilting the lens
in the direction of the center of activity in the room maximizes image quality. Consider the
desired camera position carefully during installation!
If discreet appearance of the Q26 is of particular importance, the In-Ceiling Set for ceiling
installation is the best possible choice (see Section 2.6).
The network connection and drill holes must be prepared correctly before installing the
On-Wall Set (both indoors and outdoors):
• Network connection : You can use any one of the four openings in the On-Wall set to
guide the cabling into the camera. The network cable must be fed through the open-
ing without a connector. An additional connector to connect to the camera cable is
required. When preparing for installation, keep in mind that the camera must later
be positioned in the correct orientation, according to its purpose (OBEN / TOP arrow
pointing upwards for wall installation, or in the direction of the longer wall for ceiling
installation in rectangular rooms).
• Preparing the drill holes : Use the drilling template for the Q26 On-Wall Set (available
for downloading from
www.mobotix.com
) to mark the position for drilling the anchor
holes with regard to the camera position.
