2. Unless the unit is specifically marked as a NEMA Type 3, 3R, 3S, 4, 4X, 6, or 6P enclosure, it is
designed for indoor use only and must not be installed where exposed to rain and moisture.
3. Use only installation methods and materials capable of supporting four times the maximum
specified load.
4. Use stainless steel hardware to fasten the enclosure to outdoor surfaces.
5. To prevent damage from water leakage when installing an enclosure outdoors, apply sealant
around the bolt holes between the enclosure and mounting surface.
CAUTION
Heater elements could be hot! When camera power is on, use caution
when adjusting the camera.

radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However there is no guarantee that the
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

WELCOME
Thank you for purchasing Pelco’s Camclosure® integrated camera system with LowLight™, DSS
(digital slow shutter) technology. Your new ICS100 Series surface mount dome system includes a
high-resolution, low light, color camera with auto iris and varifocal lens.
The LowLight color camera has extended DSS settings to enhance the low light performance of the
camera by automatically adjusting the number of fields of integration. This slows the picture frame
rate and increases the camera’s sensitivity in low light conditions.
Prior to installation and operation of your new system thoroughly familiarize yourself
with the information in this manual.
