Installing the pan-tilt head
When installing the pan-tilt head, check the “Pan-tilt head mounting conditions” (page 20),
and be sure to follow the instructions below.
In order to prevent accidents caused by the pan-tilt head dropping out or falling off, be
absolutely sure to install a drop prevention underneath support plate separately from the
pan-tilt head.
Do not install the unit on its side because it will not be able to operate or perform as
originally designed.
p
The installation surface must have a withdrawal strength of at least 340 N (35 kgf) for
each anchor used.
p
After fashioning the anchors or hangers, install the pan-tilt head, and take measures to
prevent it from dropping.
p
After the pan-tilt head has been installed, mount the camera onto the pan-tilt head.
p
Embed the anchors to the depth recommended by the manufacturer of the anchors.
p
Use M6 bolts or nuts for the pan-tilt head mounting holes (4 locations) to install the
pan-tilt head.
p
Use the M8 bolt or nut for the underneath support plate hole (1 location) to install the
underneath support plate.
p
When mounting onto anchors with external threads, check that the anchor bolts
protrude at least 7 mm (9/32˝) from the nuts used to mount the pan-tilt head and
underneath support plate. (Fig. 1)
p
When mounting onto anchors with internal threads, check that the bolts engage with
the female anchors to a depth at least two times the bolt diameter. (Fig. 2)
p
Be absolutely sure to use the flat washers and spring washers for the hexagon head
bolts and nuts.

For tightening, use a torque wrench with which the torque can be specified.
p
Avoid installation on plaster board or wooden surfaces since these surfaces are not
strong enough.
p
Install the pan-tilt head so as to ensure that none of the components mounted on the
pan-tilt head or cables will come into contact with any objects in the vicinity when the
pan-tilt head rotates.
Contact between the unit and an object in the vicinity may trigger the safe mode
function.
For further details, refer to “Concerning the safe modes” (page 33).
