Preparations
When installing the camera, there are 4 methods as specified below.
• Using the two-gang junction box (
☞
pages 19)
• Installing the camera directly on the ceiling or wall (
☞
page 20)
• Using the optional ceiling mount bracket WV-Q105*
1
(for direct mounting on a ceiling)
(
☞
page 21)
IMPORTANT:
• Procure 4 screws (M4) to secure the camera attachment (accessory) to a ceiling or a wall
according to the material of the installation area. In this case, wood screws and nails should not
be used. For mounting a camera on a concrete wall, use an anchor bolt (M4) or an AY plug bolt
(M4) for securing. (Recommended tightening torque: 1.6 N·m {1.18 lbf·ft})
• Mount the camera attachment (accessory) in consideration of the camera angle in accordance
with the instructions (
☞
pages 19 to 21).
• Required pull-out capacity of a single screw/bolt is 196 N {44 lbf} or more.
• If a ceiling board such as plaster board is too weak to support the total weight, the area shall
be sufficiently reinforced or the optional ceiling mount bracket for the camera, WV-Q105*

,
must be used.
