l Installation instructions sheet
If you are installing the camera with the pendant wall mount, ensure the package includes the following:
l Pendant wall mount (IRPTZ-MNT-WALL1)
l Mounting template sticker
If you are installing the camera with the NPT mount, ensure the package includes the following:
l NPT mount (IRPTZ-MNT-NPTA1)
l Lock nut
l Thread sealing tape
Ensure the dome cover package contains the following:
l Clear or smoked dome bubble and cover (H4AMH-DO-COVR1 or H4AMH-DO-COVR1-SMOKE)
If you are installing the camera with the optional IR illuminator, ensure the package includes the following:
l Optional IR illuminator ring (H4AMH-AD-IRIL1)
Installation Steps
Complete the following sections to install the device.
(Optional) Installing the Pendant Wall Mount
Use the procedure below to install the pendant wall mount (IRPTZ-MNT-WALL1) for use with the H4 Multisensor
pendant mount adapter (H4AMH-AD-PEND1).
Pendant Mount Installation 15
CAUTION — The dome camera must be mounted as instructed below or problems with moisture may
arise and will not be covered by the dome camera warranty.
1. Determine where the cable will enter the pendant wall mount.
l If the cable will be pulled from inside the mounting surface, use the cable entry hole at the rear of
the pendant wall mount.
l If the cable will be coming out of an external conduit pipe, use the 3/4” NPT pipe entry hole on the
bottom of the pendant wall mount.
2. Use the provided mounting template to drill four mounting holes into the mounting surface.
l If you are using the rear cable entry hole, also drill the cable entry hole into the mounting surface.
3. Pull the required cables through the preferred cable entry hole on the pendant wall mount.
l If you are using the pipe entry hole, pull the cables through the pipe conduit then the wall mount.
Next, apply thread seal tape to the pipe conduit and screw it into the pipe entry hole.
4. Fasten the pendant wall mount to the mounting surface.
5. Tighten the wall mount screws to secure the wall mount to the wall.
(Optional) Installing the Pendant Wall Mount 16
6. Connect the safety lanyard from the mount to the anchor on the pendant adapter.
7. Pull the cables through the pendant wall mount.
(Optional) Installing the Pendant Wall Mount 17
(Optional) Installing the NPT Mount Adapter
CAUTION — The dome camera must be mounted as instructed below or problems with moisture may
arise and will not be covered by the dome camera warranty.
If you are installing the H4 Multisensor camera with an NPT adapter (IRPTZ-MNT-NPTA1), the dome camera must
be mounted on a 1-1/2” NPT female threaded wall or ceiling mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is not
included in the camera package.
1.1. Wrap the thread of the NPT adapter with the supplied thread-sealing tape to create a water tight seal
around the camera connection. There should be three to five turns around the entire threaded surface.
When applying the thread-sealing tape, wrap the tape clockwise.
This will ensure the tape does not unravel when installing the mating parts together.
Tip: Always apply thread-sealing tape to threaded mounts to help prevent the threads from binding.
(Optional) Installing the N PT Mount Adapter 18
2. Loosely thread the lock nut onto the NPT adapter, then secure the NPT adapter into the wall or ceiling
mounting bracket.
3. Connect the safety lanyard from the mount to the anchor on the pendant adapter.
4. Pull the cables through the mounting bracket and adapter.
(Optional) Installing the N PT Mount Adapter 19
Installing the Pendant Mounting Adapter
Use the following procedure to mount the pendant adapter (H4AMH-AD-PEND1) into a pendant wall mount
(IRPTZ-MNT-WALL1) or NPT mount (IRPTZ-MNT-NPTA1).
1. Connect the pendant adapter to the mount. In one smooth motion, raise the adapter into the mount (a)
and then turn clockwise to lock the adapter in place (b).
2. Use a screwdriver to tighten the 3 setscrews at the top of the mount to secure the pendant adapter to the
mount (c).
