1.The mounting surface must withstand five times the camera weight.

2.Do not let the cables get caught in improper places or the electric line cover can be damaged. This may cause a short or fire.

3.For the installation process, remove the dome cover from the camera module by loosening the three (3) screws on the dome. Use the wrench provided with the camera.

4.Using the mounting template sheet or the camera itself, mark and drill the necessary holes in the wall or ceiling.

STEP 2 – CABLING THE CAMERA TO EXTERNAL DEVICES

Pass the wires through the mount bracket and make all necessary connections.

1.NETWORK CONNECTIONS – If you are using a PoE Switch, connect the camera using an Ethernet cable for both data and power.

2.NETWORK CONNECTIONS – If you are using a non-PoE switch, connect the camera to the switch using an Ethernet cable for data transmission and use a power adapter to power the camera.
