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.

Cable notch

Connect the BNC and power
connectors to the camera.

Connect the BNC connector to
the video input of the monitor /
DVR, and connect the included
power connector to a power
adapter. See Setup Diagram
below for details.

BNC to RCA Adapter

Attach the included BNC to RCA adapter to connect the
extension cable to RCA inputs (i.e. for a TV connection).

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. Rotate the camera base counterclockwise to separate

it from the ball camera and dome cover.

2. Feed the BNC / power cable through the camera base.

If you are running the cables against a wall or ceiling,
make sure to pass the cable through the cable notch as
shown above.

3. Connect the video and power cable as shown in the

next section ‘Connecting The Camera‘.

4. Mount the camera base to the wall or ceiling using the

included screws.

5. Position the dome cover over the camera and screw it

clockwise halfway onto the camera base.

6. Move the ball camera to the desired position. While

holding the ball camera firmly in place, screw the dome
cover the rest of the way to secure it to the camera base.
Holding the camera prevents it from moving while
installing the dome cover.

Cable Extension Options

Extend the cable run for your camera up to 300ft. or more
depending on the cable type used. See table below:

Notes:

1. For optimal performance, consider using option 2 or 3. It is best to use the same cable type for the entire distance.

2. Cable run recommendation based on typical camera power
consumption (up to 500mA). For specialty cameras with higher
current consumption, maximum cable run may be reduced.
Consider providing power to the camera at the camera side,
rather then at the end of the extension cable.

3. Indicators that your cable run may be too long:

• Video is permanently black & white (even during day time)

• Video is distorted
