4 Device Installation
This section details installing the Multi-Sensor camera to a wall or to a ceiling. Note that the wall or
ceiling must be capable of supporting a minimum of three (3) times the weight of the camera and a
bracket (if used).
Warning
: DO NOT connect the camera to the power supply during installation.
Warning
: For units intended to be installed outdoors: All wiring connecting to the unit must be routed
separately inside a different permanently earthed metal conduits (not supplied).
Warning
: Install external interconnecting cables in accordance to NEC, ANSI/NFPA70 (for US
application) and Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, CSA C22.1 (for CAN application) and in
accordance to local country codes for all other countries. Branch circuit protection incorporating a 20
A, 2-pole Listed Circuit Breaker or Branch Rated Fuses are required as part of the building installation.
A readily accessible 2-pole disconnect device with a contact separation of at least 3 mm must be
incorporated.
Warning:
DO NOT remove the protective film from the dome until the installation is complete to
protect the dome from distortions from fingerprints, oil, grease or other contaminants.
Note
: Dahua recommends attaching a “drip loop” (flex or hard conduit) during installation to ensure
condensation does not form in the mount or the conduit.
4.1 Installing the Camera
1.
Remove the camera, the mounting template, multi-purpose tool, and the hardware package from
the box.
2.
Remove the bottom cover from the camera to access the analog output port and the camera
menu control buttons.
3.
Connect an analog TV monitor to the CVBS Output port. This optional step assists with
positioning and configuring the camera to produce the desired video scene.
4.
Apply the mounting template to the mounting medium. Pre-drill the four perimeter holes for the
expansion bolts, using a drill bit that is no wider than the expansion bolt.
5.
Drill the center hole to route the cable from the camera through the installation medium.
6.
Insert an expansion bolt into each pre-drilled perimeter hole.
7.
Route the cables from the back of the camera through the installation medium and align the four
holes on the base of the camera with the expansion bolts.
8.
Insert a bolt into the expansion bolts and tighten with the Multi-purpose tool. Repeat this
procedure with the other three (3) expansion bolts.
9.
Adjust the sunshield, if necessary. Loosen the screw on the top of the camera and slide the
sunshield back and forth to the desired location, then tighten the screw.
10. Connect the external cables from the camera to the appropriate cables for video, power, alarm
I/O, and audio.
11. Press the Reset button for five (5) seconds to reset camera and to send video along the analog
connection, if connected.
