 Installing the camera on the ceiling or wall

Make sure the flexible stand is firmly mounted on a beam of wood (25 mm [1 inch] and 
greater) etc. When there is no beam, apply a board on the other side of the ceiling or wall 
to make sure the camera does not drop.

When mounting on a mortar or concrete surface

Prepare anchors for 4 mm (3/16 inch) diameter screws for mounting. 
Mortar ceilings or walls break easily when drilling. Be careful of pieces 
of mortar which may become loose and fall.
1.  Place the flexible stand on the ceiling or wall where you plan to mount the 

flexible stand and mark the points where you are going to make holes.

2.  Make holes with an electric drill. Insert anchors (locally procured) 

into the holes and push them inside the holes with a hammer.

3.  Mount the flexible stand using the screws.

Drill for concrete (in case of tile, 

use a drill for tile)

 IMPORTANT

  

Do not connect 2 wires or more directly to a terminal. When it is necessary to connect 2 

or more wires, use a splitter.

  

Input and output of the external I/O terminal 2 and 3 can be switched by configuring the 

setting. The default of EXT I/O terminal 2 is "ALARM IN 2" and of EXT I/O terminal 3 is 

"ALARM IN 3". It is possible to determine whether or not to receive input from EXT I/O 

terminal 2 and 3 (ALARM IN2, 3) by selecting "Off", "Alarm input", "Alarm output" or "AUX 

output" for "Terminal alarm 2" or "Terminal alarm 3" on the [Alarm] tab on the "Alarm setup" 

page. Refer to the Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM) for further information.

  

The default of EXT I/O terminals is "Off". When "Off" is selected, it is possible to connect 

external devices as well as the input setting.

  

When using the EXT I/O terminals as the output terminals, ensure they do not cause 

signal collision with external signals.
