Installation Procedures

This section provides step-by-step procedures in installing the camera on a corner wall using the
accessory set (SMAX-0004) and how to waterproof the cables.

Before installation, prepare the following tools and accessories which are not included in the
camera package thus must be purchased separately:

 Corner Mount with Mounting Bracket (SMAX-0004)
 Flexible Conduit (Trade size = 1/2”)
 Ethernet Cable
 Screwdriver

Step 1: Attach the Corner Mount

1. Align the Corner Mount to the corner wall and mark the location of the eight (8) screw holes.

NOTE:

 The illustration above shows only the screw holes on one side of the wall.

Remember to mark the screw holes on the other side of the wall, too.

 Due to different corner surfaces and shapes, it is recommended to use the

actual Corner Mount to mark the holes for drilling.

2. Drill the eight (8) screw holes.
