Installing the Cameras Cable Extension Options

ATTENTION - Test each camera prior to selecting a permanent mounting

location by temporarily connecting the camera(s) and cables to the DVR.

1. Set the camera in the desired mounting position and mark holes for screws through the camera base.

2. Drill the holes, then feed the cable through the mounting surface or cable notch. NOTE: Insert the included drywall anchors if installing the camera in drywall.
