4. MOUNTING and WIRING CONNECTIONS
Run coaxial cable for video, 18 gauge wires for power and UTP (unshielded twisted pair) wire
for alarm output to the installation location prior to installing the camera. The coax cable must
be terminated with a male BNC connector. The power wires are to be terminated with a male
5.5mm power pigtail. The alarm terminal block will accept bare wire.
a. This camera must be mounted on a wall or other vertical surface. Proper image
cannot be attained with ceiling mounting.
b. Hold the camera on the wall while monitoring the image with a portable monitor or
meter.
c. Observe the image while rotating the camera. When the desired view is achieved,
mark the mounting holes on the wall.
d. Connect the power supply’s 5.5mm male power pigtail to the camera’s female power
connector.
e. Connect the camera’s female BNC video output connector to the video coaxial cable’s
male BNC connector.
f. Feed all wires up into the wall.
g. NOTE: The camera can pivot approximately 45
°
in any direction once the camera is
mounted. Ensure proper positioning prior to securing the camera.
h. Connect power supply’s AC plug to a suitable AC power outlet.
i. The alarm output is a Normally Open (N.O.) switch. When the PIR motion detector
senses movement the N.O. switch closes momentarily. When connecting the
camera’s alarm output to a DVR’s alarm input, be sure to use a N.O. input or set the
input to N.O. in the DVR’s menu. The alarm output can als be used in any security
system as a standard motion sensor.
