Mounting the Camera
The camera is for indoor or outdoor mounting on a wall, ceiling or under a lintel. First disconnect
base from camera by removing the allen screw holding the securing plate, using the supplied allen
key. Secure the base with suitable screws using the four screw holes in the base. Adjust the eyeball
camera and cover to ensure that the correct view is achieved and refit the securing plate using the
allen screw. The camera is IP65 rated and suitable for outdoor use.
Powering the Camera
The SEE870 requires a 12V DC 500mA regulated power supply minimum when IRs are on, and
power consumption is rated at 4.2 watts. It should be noted that 500mA provides extra headroom
that is required when the camera is first powered up. The camera is provided with a fly lead with a
mini power 2.1mm DC socket. The camera is polarity sensitive so connections must be correctly
made.
Connecting the camera to control equipment
The dome camera comes with a fly lead for power, TVI/AHD/CVI/CVBS selected BNC video
output plus a second analogue (CVBS) video output on a separate BNC lead. Connect the HD
camera to control equipment via a female BNC-BNC lead. When using a co-ax type cable such as
RG59 or similar, the outer braid of the co-ax provides the “0V GROUND” connection and the inner
core provides the “Video” connection. The separate analogue (CVBS) output is primarily available
for setup purposes but can be used for viewing via an analogue monitor. Note that you can use both
analogue outputs together but the menu can only be viewed on one channel.
