shorter screws may cause camera drop.
• You cannot use camera neck screws to attach
the mounting adapter to the camera unit.
Notes:
• Lead the cables out of the camera head.
• When separating the camera neck, remove the
panning lock screw and tilting lock screw.
Then, remove the three screws inside the cam-

1. Shrinking the cable-entry seal is a one-time procedure. Do not shrink the cable-entry seal
until it has been ascertained that the unit is functioning.
CONNECT THIS TO CLASS 2 POWER SUPPLY ONLY.
2. All interconnecting devices must be UL Listed.
CAUTIONS
3. Connect the video input jack of LCD moni-
tor and the monitor output jack (3.5 mm
{0.14"} diam. minijack) of camera with a 2-
pole cable.
Note:
Refer to the illustrations for the width
of plug to be inserted into the video
input jack.
4. Adjust the camera angle by performing 1) to 3).
1) While holding the camera head, loosen the panning lock screw. Panning becomes adjustable.
Then, move the camera head horizontally.
2) While holding the camera head, loosen the tilting lock screw. Tilting becomes adjustable. Then,
