Precautions for Installing Near Salt Water
Salt environments are hard on camera paint and external appearances but the camera's functionality will not be
affected if the cameras are installed as described in this guide.
Follow these precautions to avoid camera issues when installing in a salt heavy environment:
l Use mounting accessories offered by Avigilon. All Avigilon accessories are tested to work with Avigilon
cameras in the rated environments.
l If you use a third-party accessory, you must ensure that the material is compatible with the finish of the
camera housing or galvanic corrosion may occur.
l Never pair steel mounting accessories with aluminum camera enclosures. Steel corrodes aluminum when
salt is introduced. The corrosion is an electrochemical reaction and will cause the corrosion to spread
across the entire camera body.
l Always insulate any camera surface that is in contact with another metal or conductive material. It is
recommended that you always isolate the mounting screws from the mounting surface and camera
housing with rubber or plastic shoulder washers.

Page 14
Removing the Dome Cover
Remove the dome cover by loosening the screws that fix the cover to the base. The Torx key included with the
dome camera can be used to loosen the screws.
NOTE: Be careful not to scratch or touch the dome bubble. The resulting marks or fingerprints may affect the
overall image quality. Keep the protective covers on the bubble until after the installation is complete.
Mounting the Dome Camera
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.
Perform the following steps to mount the dome camera to a ceiling or wall:
1. Determine where the cables will enter the camera. The camera has two cable entry holes: one on the side
and one on the bottom of the dome camera.
l Use the supplied 1/2” NPT closure plug to fill the unused cable entry hole.
l When installing outdoors, wrap the thread of the plug with the supplied Teflon sealing tape to
create a water tight seal.
2. If you are using the side cable entry hole, attach a conduit connector to the cable entry hole. Install the
conduit and its fitting as instructed by the manufacturer.
NOTE: Only use vandal resistant conduits. Vandal resistant conduits will protect the cables and
complement the dome camera’s vandal resistant design.
When installing the dome camera outdoors, ensure the conduit and its fitting are designed for outdoor use
and have a suitable IP rating. Always apply silicone sealant to seal the cable entry hole and prevent
excessive moisture from entering the dome.
3. Use the drill template to drill four mounting holes in the ceiling or wall. The mounting pattern is compatible
with 4” round outdoor boxes or 4” octagonal junction boxes.
When installing outdoors on a vertical surface, the side cable entry hole must face downwards.

minimum 1.2 kg (2.6 lbs).
Connecting Cables
Refer to the diagrams in the Overview section for the location of the different connectors.
To connect the cables required for proper operation, complete the following:
1. If external input or output devices are part of the installation (for example: door contacts, relays, etc.),
connect the devices to the I/O connector block.
2. If an external microphone or external video monitor needs to be connected to the camera, connect the
devices to the camera Audio/Video Connector.
3. Connect a network cable to the camera’s Ethernet port (RJ-45 connector).
oWrap the cable once around the interior base of the dome housing before you make the
connection. This will ensure the cable connector is not over-stressed and cause poor video
performance.
oThe Link LED will turn on once a network link has been established.
4. Connect power using one of the following methods:
oPower over Ethernet (PoE) Class 3 — If PoE is available, the LEDs will turn on.
oExternal Power — Connect an external 12 V DC or 24 V AC power source to the power connector
block.
5. Check that the Connection Status LED indicates the correct state. For more information, see LED
Indicators on page17.
Assigning an IP Address
The camera automatically obtains an IP address when it is connected to a network.
NOTE: If the camera cannot obtain an IP address from a DHCP server, it will use Zero Configuration Networking
(Zeroconf) to choose an IP address. When set using Zeroconf, the IP address is in the 169.254.0.0/16 subnet.
The IP address settings can be changed using one of the following methods:
l Camera's web browser interface: http://<camera IP address>/
l Network video management software application (for example, Avigilon Control Center™).
l ARP/Ping method. For more information, see Setting the IP Address Using the ARP/Ping Method on
page19.
