Installation
The installation tasks are explained using 4 steps.
Step1
Make sure all items are prepared before
beginning installation.
Step2
Mount the brackets to a ceiling or wall.
Step3
Connect cables, and then attach the
camera to the mount bracket.
Step4
Open sub cover, secure camera, close
after image direction adjustment.
IMPORTANT:
Procure 4 screws (M4) to secure the
●
A
attachment plate (accessory) to a ceiling or a wall.
When mounting the camera on a concrete ceiling, use an AY plug bolt (M4) for securing.
●
(Recommended tightening torque: 1.6 N·m {1.18 lbf·ft})
Select screws according to the material of the ceiling or wall that the camera will be mount-
●
ed to. Do not use wood screws and nails.
If a ceiling board such as plaster board is too weak to support the total weight, the area
●
shall be sufficiently reinforced.
Step1 Preparations
There are 6 methods to install the camera to a ceiling or wall as described below. Prepare the
required parts for each installation method before starting the installation. The following are the
requirements for the various installation methods.

(accessory), and align the upwards direction of
the image as necessary.
Rotating the image rotation gear clockwise
also rotates the PC image clockwise. Rotating
the image rotation gear counterclockwise also
rotates the PC image counterclockwise.
Adjustable range of the PC image
-45° to +45°
The default position of the image rotation
●
gear is 0°.
Note:
When Double Panorama or Panorama
●
is selected for the Image capture
mode, you can rotate the image at 90°
intervals by using preset position set-
tings. To make further fine adjustments
to the image angle, adjust the image
rotation gear. Refer to 11.1 and 11.5.4
of the Operating Instructions for more
information.
Note:
Take care of the following points when
using monitor out.
Select “9M Fisheye” or “4M Fisheye”
●
for “Image capture mode”.
Locally procure the ø3.5 mm monaural
●
mini plug
⇔
RCA pin jack conversion
cable.
Select the [Setup]→[Basic] tab, and
●
then select On (NTSC) or On (PAL) for
[Monitor out].

When mounting on a standard tripod stand
(locally procured), attach the desktop cover
to the camera before mounting on the
standard tripod stand.
1
Secure the
H
safety wire lug (accessory) to the camera with the
I
wire lug fixing screw
(accessory). Secure the safety wire lug as shown in the following illustrations.
2
Attach the safety wire (accessory) to the wire mounting hole of the safety wire lug. (The cam-
era is not shown in the following illustrations.)
3
Rotate the desktop cover in the direction of
the arrow to secure the camera. Process
the wiring by passing the cables through the
cable access hole in the desktop cover.
Make sure that the attachment position
marker on the desktop cover will be set to
the “LOCK” position.
■
When using the attachment plate
1
Insert a thin slotted head screwdriver, etc.
into the sub cover groove of the camera,
rotate the slotted head screwdriver as
shown in the illustration below, and then
remove the sub cover.
■
When installing the camera on a desktop or standard tripod stand (locally procured)
When installing the camera on a desktop or standard tripod stand (locally procured), attach the
J
desktop cover (accessory) to the camera. The
A
attachment plate (accessory) is not used
when installing the camera on a desktop or standard tripod stand (locally procured).
■
When mounting the camera on the WV-Q105A or the mounting bracket (locally pro-
cured)
Refer to the operating instructions included with the WV-Q105A or the mounting bracket (locally
procured) for the procedure on installing the camera using the respective bracket. The following
are descriptions of

Note:
When installing the camera directly on
●
the ceiling or wall with cables
exposed, cut out a portion of the
enclosure to open a cable access
hole.
Note:
After the cables have been connected
●
to the camera, align the direction of
the Panasonic logo on the camera
with “ TOP” of the
A
attachment
plate (accessory). Align the OPEN
mark on the side of the camera with
the protruding part of the attachment
plate, insert 3 attachment mounting
screws into the attachment plate,
rotate the camera approximately 15 °,
and move the LOCK mark to the pro-
truding part of the attachment plate to
temporarily secure the camera.
After connecting the cables, use a
●
G
cable tie (accessory) for wiring pro-
cessing as necessary.
* Wiring and the sub cover are not shown in
some illustrations from this point.
IMPORTANT:
Because the sub cover is attached to
●
the camera with the sub cover sheet,
do not pull the sub cover with exces-
sive force. Failure to observe this may
damage the sub cover.
To prevent injury and protect cables,
●
smooth opened cable access holes of
the enclosure with a file or other tool.
To prevent filings or other substances
●
entering inside the camera, open the
sub cover when using a file or other
tool to smooth the cable access
holes.
IMPORTANT:
Because the bottom side of the cam-
●
era may become hot, make sure to
use the camera with the
J
desktop
cover (accessory) attached.
The specified operating temperatures
●
for the camera are -10 °C to +40 °C
{14 °F to 104 °F} when it is installed
on a desktop or standard tripod stand.
Use a standard tripod stand with a tri-
●
pod head of ø75 mm or less.
When mounting on a standard tripod
●
stand, take care because knocking
over the tripod or damaged screws
may cause the camera to fall.
Use a standard tripod stand that is
●
capable of supporting a load more
than the weight of the camera (440
g
{0.97 lbs}).
IMPORTANT:
Make sure to attach the safety wire lug so
●
that the wire mounting hole faces outward.
When it is attached facing inward, it may
touch the camera mount bracket.
Use the
●
I
wire lug fixing screw (accesso-
ry) to attach the
H
safety wire lug (acces-
sory). When using different length screws,
it may damage the camera or cause the
camera to fall.
(Recommended tightening torque:
0.39 N·m {0.29 lbf·ft})
IMPORTANT:
Disconnect either the 12 V DC power
●
source or PoE power source to pre-
vent power from being supplied while
mounting the camera.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure to tighten the camera fixing
●
screw. Failure to observe this may cause
camera trouble due to camera falling.
(Recommended tightening torque:
0.78 N·m {0.58 lbf·ft})
IMPORTANT:
Ensure that the SD memory card slot
●
cover's fixing screw is firmly secured.
Make sure that the sub cover is
●
securely fixed.
After the installation is completed,
●
clean the lens surface with a soft
cloth, etc.
After the installation is complete, if the
●
image is out of focus, turn off the
camera, and then turn it on again. If
the image is still out of focus, select
the [Image/Position] tab from
[Setup]→[Image/Audio], and then re-
adjust the back focus from [Setup>>]
of [Back focus].
