Installation
XX151-02-00 Rev 1206 Surveyor4A Fixed-Position Camera Dome
Mounting the Unit
The Surveyor4A is intended for in-ceiling installation. It can be installed in either a dropped ceiling or a hard
ceiling. Installation is done with a 4 x 4 electrical box, which is included. All mounting hardware is provided.
The ceiling material must provide suitable strength to support the weight of the Surveyor4A dome (3.0 lb,
1.4 kg). Be sure the area around the selected location is clear of obstacles (such as steel beams, headers,
pipes, electrical wiring, etc.) that would interfere with mounting. Video and power cables must be routed to the
location. Refer to Coaxial Cable Recommendation in the reference section.
1. Cut a 4.37 x 4.12 in. (111 x 105 mm) hole in the ceiling at the desired location. Refer to Figure 1 for
mounting dimensions. Remove the tile from a dropped ceiling if necessary. Make sure all necessary
cables are routed to the location.
2. The electrical box has several knockout holes. Choose the convenient hole(s) for the cabling
requirements. Install a suitable strain relief or conduit fitting and route the cables through the connector
and into the box.
3. Compress the mounting bracket flush to the electrical box and insert the box into the hole in the ceiling.
The right-angle brackets on the bottom of the electrical box will be outside the hole. Refer to Figure 2.
4. Tighten the screws in the top of the electrical box. This expands the bracket that is on the box and
squeezes the box into the ceiling for a secure fit. Refer to Figure 2.
5. Remove the nut and flat washer from the camera/lens assembly. Rotate the tilt bracket for easy access to
the camera mounting hole and insert the screw on the assembly through the hole in the camera mounting
bracket. Secure the assembly with the previously removed self-locking nut/flat washer. Refer to Figure 3.
To ensure that the camera view is correct, the camera/lens assembly must be installed correctly so that
the markings on the camera face up and the pan bracket is arranged so that it is on the left when looking
into the lens.
6. Connect the mini-connector on the cable from the enclosure to the mating connector on the printed circuit
board on the camera. Refer to Figure 3.
