Installing the Camera

ATTENTION - Ensure the camera is working correctly prior to

permanent installation by temporarily connecting the camera(s) and
cable(s) to the NVR.

NOTE - This camera may only be mounted to a ceiling. The image

will appear sideways if mounted to a wall.

Before installing the camera:

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

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

To install the camera:

1. Use the included mounting template to mark
holes for the mounting screws.

2. Connect the Ethernet cable to the camera
as shown in the section ‘Connecting the

the ceiling, make sure to pass the cable
through the cable notch as shown above.

3. Loosen the 3 cover screws and then lift the
cover away from the camera.

4. Mount the camera to the ceiling using the
included mounting screws.
