7.3 Installing the Unit onto a Solid Wall
1. Refer to steps 1 to 6 above. Replace fasteners and wall
anchors from the hardware kit with customer-supplied
components as desired. The through-hole size for the
wall mounts is sized for a #8 screw (approximately
0.175” diameter).
2. Use the base as a template to mark the hole location of
the other two mounting holes. Remove the base from
the wall and drill the remaining two mounting holes
(3/16” drill bit).
3. Insert wall anchors into the holes in the wall, then place
the Height Strip base back onto the mounting screw
in the wall. Align the base with the 5-foot mark as in
Step 5 of the previous section. Tighten the remaining
mounting screws to secure the Height Strip base to the
wall.
4. Knockouts are provided at the top and bottom of the unit
for cable entry and conduit fittings.
5. Remove the desired knockout by pushing it into the base
with a screw driver, then bending it back and forth until
it snaps off.
6. Insert an appropriate conduit fitting into the hole, then
run the customer-supplied power and video cables into
the conduit fitting.
7. Refer to Step 14 of the previous section when connecting
video and power cables to the camera.
8. Follow steps 15 – 18 of the previous section to complete
the installation.
7.4 Installing the Unit using the Accessory
Wall Bracket (MT-HS)
Note:
cable entry can only be accomplished via the
knockouts at the top or bottom of the Height Strip
when using the MT-HS wall bracket.
1. Refer to
Figure 8
and
Figure 9
when installing this
accessory.
2. Measure from the floor to the 5-foot mark on the
mounting surface. Make a mark at 5 feet.
3. The side of the MT-HS with the rubber pads and notches,
see
Figure 9
, near the center through-holes is the side
that gets screwed to the wall. Always use the
lower
of the two center through-holes as your 5-foot mark
reference. The Height Strip can be mounted facing
either left or right of the accessory bracket by spinning
the bracket 180°.
4. Orient the bracket as appropriate for your installation.
Line up the notch of the lower through hole with the
5-foot mark.
5. Use the MT-HS bracket as a template to mark the
mounting hole locations.
6. Drill 3/16” holes in the mounting surface if using the
anchors and screws from the Height Strip’s hardware kit.
Drill an appropriate size hole if using other fasteners.
7. Insert wall anchors into the holes and secure the MT-HS
to the mounting location using the screws.
Ensure the M4
screw head is
on THIS side
of the Bracket
once the cover
is secured.
