Cable hole

Installing the Camera on a Surface

This section details the procedures of installing the camera on a flat surface such as a hard or dropped ceiling and straight or tilted walls. Before installation, make sure the wall or the ceiling can bear more than the weight of the camera.

Step 1: Drill the Holes

Before drilling the holes on the ceiling or wall, note the direction which side of the camera the connectors are located on. This influences the camera placement and where you should drill the hole where the cables will pass through or how the cables will go along the ceiling or wall.

1. Attach the supplied drill template on the surface according to the preferred camera

orientation.

2. Determine how the cables will be routed: pass through the surface or along the surface.

 If the cables will pass through the surface, drill the cable hole and the three (3)

screw holes on the surface.

 If the cables will be routed along the surface, just drill the three (3) screw holes on

the surface.

3. Detach the drill template from the surface and insert the plastic plugs into the screw holes.

Step 2: Open the Dome Cover

NOTE: To avoid scratches or fingerprints on the dome cover, it is recommended to leave the

protective plastic on the dome cover until the camera is completely installed. However, the plastic has been removed on some of the pictures in this documentation to show clarity of the procedures being described.

1. If the cables will pass through the surface, remove the threaded plug covering the bottom

hole of the camera, and attach the plug to the side hole to close it. The cables will be routed to pass this hole from the surface.

2. With the included hex screwdriver, loosen the three (3) screws securing the dome cover.

3. Carefully lift to open the dome cover and place it on the side of the camera.

NOTE: Do not abruptly lift the dome cover; it is attached to the camera with a spring wire.

4. Remove the Styrofoam protecting the camera.
