SECTION 6
Installation of the bare PTV16C wireless videocam in
plastic box housing, and in Desktop Rover cover.
The PTV16C can be operated as a bare unit when your installation demands the lightest
weight possible. As an alternative, and to increase durability and esthetic appearance,
the PTV16C can be installed into the included rectangular plastic box. The same installa-
tion procedure is followed for installation into the camera cover for the Desktop Rover.
Take care when installing or removing the camera - do not bend the circuit boards or use
excessive force to fit this small camera into the plastic housing.
Follow these steps to INSTALL:
1. Turn the plastic cover upside down on your table (open side up).
2. Note of the position of the holes for the lens, antenna, indicator LED, and switch.
3. Feed the antenna wire (item 6 in Fig 4.0) through the smallest hole in the plastic cover
as in Fig 6.0.
4. Insert and slide the PTV16C - lens first - into the plastic housing. Try for an approxi-
mate fit at this stage - it won't look perfect until the next step so don't worry. It may
take a few trials - DO NOT bend the circuit boards of the PTV16C. Read ahead to the
next steps and then come back to this step when you know what you need to do.
5. To lock the camera in place, you will need to push the indicator LED (item 2 in Fig 4.0)
forwards with a small flat head screwdriver, or the end of a pen with the ballpoint
retracted. (see Fig 6.1). The LED will pop through the round hole in the plastic case,
and the camera will be locked in place.
6. The copper ground plane (item 4 in Fig 4.0) has a self adhesive backing. If this is a
permanent installation, you can remove the paper backing from the ground plane, and
stick it to the inside of the plastic housing. If you want to remove the camera later, you
can leave the paper backing in place - it will not affect the operation of the camera.
7. Insert a 9V, and you are ready to go! Use a pen to flip the on/off switch.
Follow these steps to DE-INSTALL:
1. Peel the ground plane (item 4 in Fig 4.0) from the plastic cover. This step is only
needed if the copper ground plane has been stuck to the inside of the plastic case.
2. From the outside of the plastic cover, push the LED inwards with the tip of a pen -
unlocking the camera from the plastic case. The camera may then be removed from
the plastic case - carefully slide it out.
Special Notes for De-Installing:
The sliding cover of the plastic box housing will lock in place the first time it is attached
to the box. If you need to remove the camera from this housing, you will need to use a
thin flathead screwdriver to pry the cover off. If you think you will be moving the camera
from one case to another, you can trim the two tiny plastic locking tabs from the side of
the cover with a pair of nail clippers, or a utility knife. This will allow the sliding cover to
be removed easily.
