Camera Installation
Caution
⚫
The installation ceiling or wall must be thick enough to sustain at least 3x weight of the camera.
⚫
If you want to set the camera angle completely horizontally (0-10
° from horizontal
) you must mount
the camera on a vertical surface. If mounted horizontally and angled horizontally the light from the
ring of IR LED
’s will reflect off the cowl and blind the camera at night.
⚫
Avoid siting the camera in locations exposed to extreme weather if possible. Very strong sunlight,
driving rain, howling gales etc. all provide hazards to the operation and life span of the camera.
⚫
Do not install the camera in a location with extremely high temperature.
⚫
Leave the electrostatic adsorption film on the surface of the lens window until installation is
completed, to avoid damage during handling/installation, but don
’t forget to take it off before
operation.

⚫
Unscrew the mounting bracket /camera pedestal at the base of the camera. This can now be used
as a template to draw the marks onto the mounting surface before drilling the holes. Remember to
thread the cable back through it before tightening the screws
⚫
If installing on a brick, concrete or other masonry surface you should drill holes for raw plugs then
install bracket and screw through the bracket holes into the raw plugged holes (as shown above).
⚫
If mounting onto a wooden surface, do not use raw plugs. Screw the bracket directly to the
wooden surface with the self-tapping screw.
