Introduction
Welcome
These are no ordinary cameras. Thanks to careful development and rigorous
testing, these cameras are equipped to survive in harsh environments and provide
enhanced features. Two main models are available to offer optical only or optical
plus thermal imaging abilities.
The numerous benefits of both camera types include:
• Flat toughened glass window – scratch resistant, maintenance-free and optically
correct,
• Integral Wiper – to clean away rain and deposits caused by wind, sea spray and
road traffic,
• Hard anodised aluminium castings, with optional powder coating to prevent
corrosion in the harshest of marine environments,
• M4 marine grade stainless steel case fastenings,
• Optional washer system,
• Optional infra-red LED illumination system,
• Day/night switching by external contact closure (optional alarm interface),
• Multiple native control protocols: Coaxial and RS485,
• Optional RS485 alarm interfaces.

Installation
Camera mounting
The camera is designed to be mounted upright or hanging. By nature of its rugged construction the camera is
a heavy item and thus requires a substantial and stable
mounting. The camera is supplied with a mount adaptor to
allow fixing to industry standard brackets, towers or columns.
The mount adaptor has two cable entry points:
• A pass-through hole in the end plate to allow the com
posite cable to enter unseen from a column, tube or
bracket type mounting, plus
• A conduit thread (M25) in the side wall to permit com
posite cable entry via a flexible conduit attached to the adaptor.
To mount the camera
1 Thread the composite cable through the appropri-
ate entry hole into the mount adaptor before it is
fixed to the column or bracket.
2 To avoid placing strain upon the electrical connections,
arrange the composite cable such that approximately
25~35mm of the weatherproof connector protrudes
out from the smaller plate that will connect to the
camera.
3 Secure the mount adaptor to
the supporting structure us
ing M8 bolts, washers and
Nyloc® type nuts.
IMPORTANT: Always use
Nyloc nuts in order to significantly reduce the possibility of bolts
working loose during operation due to
vibration.

4 Offer the camera to the mount adaptor and clip the
lanyard onto the lug of the mount adaptor. In
addition to being an essential safety device during
operation, the lanyard is useful as a temporary
hanging point when the camera is being
mounted in the inverted position.
5 Carefully note the orientation notch
es of cable connector and camera
socket. Align the notches accordingly
and insert the connector onto the socket
of the camera base. Twist the connector’s
retaining ring until it locks into place.
6 Remove the four hex head bolts from
the camera base and push the connector
back into the mount adaptor.
7 Align the four holes of the mount adaptors with those on the camera base and
insert the four hex head bolts.
8 Tighten the bolts to approximately 1.6Kg/m. Do not over tighten bolts.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the lanyard is connected to the appropriate lug
on the mount adaptor when the camera mounting is complete. Also, double check all bolts for correct positioning and appropriate tightness.
