4.2.3
Connecting MetCam to the Tilt Mount
MetCam connects to the tilt mount via 4 X 10-
32 UNF ↓10 MAX to the standoff threads encircled in the drawing below:
After connection to the tilt mount, the tilt angle should be set. This is performed by "eye-balling" MetCam so that its field of
view is centered on the monitored area. Since MetCam has a FOV of ~ 25 degrees, in the vertical dimension, accurate
aiming is not required. Once MetCam is connected electrically and starts streaming video, a fine alignment correction can
be done.
4.2.4
Installing the Sun/Rain shield
The Sun/Rain protective shield (optional item) should be mounted after connecting MetCam to the tilt mount. It does not
interfere with wiring or with aiming MetCam
4.2.5
Installing the Wi-Fi Antenna
MetCam can be ordered with an optional Wi-Fi adapter. This adapter provides intrinsically safe output. The antenna
(included with the Wi-Fi option) can be connected directly to the adapter or, can be situated at a different location with the
use of an extending cable (not included).
4.3
Wiring MetCam
Make sure the wires are not live before attempting any wiring operations.
4.3.1
Gland
The cable gland must be properly selected to suit the final application of the equipment and/or to maintain the protection
method marked thereon. Gland must provide adequate ingress protection of IP54 as a minimum, or an IP66 when it is
necessary for the final application of the equipment.
