Installing the Camera

ATTENTION - Test all connections and ensure the camera is working

correctly prior to permanent installation by temporarily connecting the
camera(s) and cable(s) to the viewing / recording solution.

Before installing the camera:

• Decide whether to run the
cables through the wall /
ceiling (drilling required) or
along the wall / ceiling.

• If you run the cables along
the wall / ceiling, you must
run the cable through the
cable notch on the base. This
will keep the camera base
flush to the wall / ceiling
when mounted.

To install the camera:

1. Use the camera base to mark holes in the wall
or ceiling.

the Camera.’

3. Mount the camera to the wall or ceiling using
the included mounting screws.

4. Loosen the camera stand screws using the
