Preparations
When installing the camera on a wall or a ceiling, there are four methods as specified below.
(

Pages 20 and 21).
• Using the two-gang junction box
• Installing the camera directly on the ceiling or wall
• Using the optional ceiling mount bracket WV-Q168 (for embedded installation on a ceiling)
• Using the optional ceiling mount bracket WV-Q105*
1
(for direct mounting on a ceiling)
Important:
• Procure 4 screws (M4) to secure the camera to a wall or a ceiling according to the material of
the installation area. In this case, wood screws and nails should not be used. For mounting a
camera on a concrete wall, use an anchor bolt (for M4) or an AY plug bolt (M4) for securing.
(Recommended tightening torque: 1.6 N·m {1.18 lbf·ft})
• Required pull-out capacity of a single screw/bolt is 196 N {44 lbf} or more.
• If a ceiling board such as plaster board is too weak to support the total weight, the area shall
be sufficiently reinforced or the optional ceiling mount bracket for the camera, WV-Q105, must
be used.
The mounting conditions of the camera are described as follows:
