HD3S Stop Arm Camera Quick Installation Guide
Installation Kit Contents
1. Choose Camera Location
2. Connect the Camera
TIP: Seal the Camera Mounting Holes
For outdoor installations, if a flat surface is not avail
-
able, carefully seal the mounting holes under the base
of the camera after installation. Do NOT apply silicone
or other sealants around the base of the camera.
CAUTION: Cable Compatibility
This camera requires a special Analog High Definition
(AHD) cable - as indicated by a blue band in front of the
connectors. A standard cable may appear to work on a
small analog screen, but the image will be significantly
degraded during subsequent playback.
1. Select a flat location to minimize possible moisture
leakage into the vehicle. Cameras must be installed
with the cabling running inside the wall panels.
2. Use the supplied drilling guide template to mark the
cable (7/8”) and screw (5/32”) holes on the panel.
3. Use a step-bit to drill the cable hole, and regular
bits for the screw holes.
Specifications
1. Connect the camera cable to the
extension cable through the panel cable
hole. See Figure 1. Ensure the extension
cable has a blue band in front of the

(Analog High Definition)-compatible.
2. Connect the extension cable’s 2×3
Micro-Fit connector into a digital video
recorder (DVR).
3. Open the Camera
1. Using the security key supplied with the camera, loosen
