DISASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
Prepare the mounting surface:
•
Depending on the type of installation, additional mounting accessories may
need to be purchased.
•
It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that the mounting surface is
suitable for the chosen installation method.
•
Based on installation location and surface type, supplied screws and
anchors may not be adequate. Mounting hardware is site-specific and may
need to be supplied by the installer.
•
Use silicone sealer around the chosen conduit hole to maintain IP66 rating
when installing outdoors.
SURFACE MOUNTING
Prepare the mounting surface
1.
Use the supplied security Torx key to loosen three screws securing the
dome bubble housing to camera module. Gently pull the dome bubble away
from the main camera module.

Depending on the type of installation and mounting surface, complete
drilling 2-3 holes in the back box in preparation for the mounting.
Prepare the mounting surface
3.
Attach the supplied mounting template to the mounting surface.
4.
Drill holes, as marked on the template and insert supplied anchors into the
holes. The number and positioning of holes must match the ones pre-drilled
on the back box in Step 2.
5.
Drill the conduit hole for the camera cable, as marked on the template, if
using the top conduit hole to route cables. Skip this step if using the side
conduit hole.
If routing the cable through the side cable exit, remove the cable exit plug.
If mounting on a wall, make sure the opening is pointing down, to create a
drip loop.
