plate of the enclosure. Slide the rear plate away from the enclosure until it stops, exposing the

camera mounting sled and the wiring connections.

2. For installing an IP camera, pass an Ethernet cable (CAT5E or better and marked with CL3 Outdoor)
through the gland fitting on the rear of the enclosure. Please refer to the camera manual for other
types of cameras for installation.

IMPORTANT:

Optional bonding connection for 24V model

(EHS8000-2-H)

12

You may need to remove the RJ-45 connector, and use a crimping tool to connect the Ethernet wires

to an RJ-45 connector inside the enclosure. Use an Ethernet cable of the width of 5-6.5mm. Follow

the T568B pinout show below and make sure both ends of the Ethernet cable match (Straight

Through Cable).

13

3. Insert the stripped wires from the 24VAC in line into the power input on the electric board as shown
below and tighten in place.

14

4. Connect the 24 VAC out on the board to the power connector provided with your camera.

5. If you are not using the second cable gland fitting, insert a plug or a piece of cable into the hole or

remove the fitting completely and replace with a hole plug. When complete, tighten up the gland

fitting nuts.

15

6. Attach your camera and lens to the camera mounting sled using (1) ¼-inch flat washer, (1) ¼-inch

lock washer, and (1) ¼-20 screw of the appropriate length (supplied). By using various combinations

of the (1) thin plastic spacer and (2) thick plastic spacers, you can adjust the height of your camera

and lens from .15”-.87” to get them close to the center of the viewing window, if needed. Once the

camera height is finalized, adjust the position of the camera/lens assembly on the camera mounting

sled so that the lens sits as close as possible to the viewing window when it is inside the enclosure.

16

7. Connect the Ethernet cable and power plug to the camera.

8. Push on the rear mounting plate and slide the camera mounting sled all the way back into the

enclosure. Reinstall the (6) M5 x 18 mm screws into the rear plate and tighten the screws using the

wrench. Screws should be tightened to 4 N-m (35.4 lbf-in).

camera mounting sled and the pcb connections.

2. For installing an IP camera, pass an Ethernet cable (CAT5E or better and marked with CL3 outdoor)
through the gland fitting on the rear of the enclosure. Please refer to the camera manual for other
types of cameras for installation. Pass the Mains wiring through the other gland fitting. For safety
reasons, please do not run high voltage wires with low voltage wires through the same gland and
wires shall comply to the following:

a. Only use specific suitable high voltage wires according to ANSI/NFPA 70 National Electrical

Code (NEC) permanent wiring connection. For supply connections, use wire suitable for at

least 85º C and 12 to 14 AWG.
b. High voltage wires must be covered by 0.4 mm thick UL recognized tubing.
c. RJ-45 cable must be covered by 0.4 mm thick UL recognized tubing.

18

You may need to remove the RJ-45 connector, and use a crimping tool to connect the Ethernet wires

to an RJ-45 connector inside the enclosure. Use an Ethernet cable of the width of 5-6.5mm. Follow

the T568B pinout shown below and make sure both ends of the Ethernet cable match (Straight

Through Cable).

19

3. Insert the stripped power wires (220-240 VAC) from the mains into the power input on the enclosure

as shown below and tighten in place. Use a suitable wire ring terminal (not supplied) to attach the

Earth ground line onto the inside of the rear mounting plate of the enclosure. If there are any other

wires connected to the earth ground screw, please make sure that the incoming earth ground must

be the first wire to contact the enclosure.

4. Connect the 12V DC and Ground to the plug for your camera as shown. Insure the + and ground
match up with your camera input.

5. When done, tighten up the gland fitting nuts.

20

of the (1) thin plastic spacer and (2) thick plastic spacers, you can adjust the height of your camera

and lens from .15”-.87” to get them close to the center of the viewing window, if needed. Once the

camera height is finalized, adjust the position of the camera/lens assembly on the camera mounting

sled so that the lens sits as close as possible to the viewing window when it is inside the enclosure.

21

7. Connect the Ethernet cable and power plug to the camera.

8. Push on the rear mounting plate and slide the camera mounting sled all the way back into the

enclosure. Reinstall the (6) M5 x 18 mm screws into the rear plate and tighten the screws using the

wrench. Screws should be tightened to 4 N-m (35.4 lbf-in).

22

Installation: PoE Models (EHS8000-P-H)

1. Using the supplied T25 Torx wrench, remove the (6) M5 x 18 mm screws from the rear mounting

plate of the enclosure. Slide the rear plate away from the enclosure until it stops, exposing the

camera mounting sled and the pcb connections.

2. For installing an IP camera, pass an Ethernet cable (CAT5E or better and marked with CL3 outdoor)
through the gland fitting on the rear of the enclosure. Please refer to the camera manual for other
types of cameras for installation.

IMPORTANT:

Optional bonding connection for PoE model

(EHS8000-P-H), but the product was tested

with one port and without the bonding

connection per KN32.

23

You may need to remove the RJ-45 connector, and use a crimping tool to connect the Ethernet wires

to an RJ-45 connector inside the enclosure. Use an Ethernet cable of the width of 5-6.5mm. Follow

the T568B pinout shown below and make sure both ends of the Ethernet cable match (Straight

Through Cable).

24

3. Insert the newly crimped RJ45 connector to the POE input port as shown below.

4. If you are not using the second cable gland fitting, insert a plug or a piece of cable into the hole or

remove the fitting completely and replace with a hole plug. When done, tighten up the gland fitting

nuts.

25

5. Attach your camera and lens to the camera mounting sled using (1) ¼-inch flat washer, (1) ¼-inch

lock washer, and (1) ¼-20 screw of the appropriate length (supplied). By using various combinations

of the (1) thin plastic spacer and (2) thick plastic spacers, you can adjust the height of your camera

and lens from .15”-.87” to get them close to the center of the viewing window, if needed. Once the

camera height is finalized, adjust the position of the camera/lens assembly on the camera mounting

sled so that the lens sits as close as possible to the viewing window when it is inside the enclosure.

26

6. Connect the supplied Ethernet patch cable from POE output to the camera POE input. Please use

POE (IEEE802.3af) enabled cameras. There will be a risk of damage to the camera if a non-

compliant POE camera is used.

7. Push on the rear mounting plate and slide the camera mounting sled all the way back into the

enclosure. Reinstall the (6) M5 x 18 mm screws into the rear plate and tighten the screws using the

wrench. Screws should be tightened to 4 N-m (35.4 lbf-in).

27

Installing the Sun Shield

1. Set the sun shield on top of the enclosure with the extended surface towards the front of the

enclosure. Align the slots in the sun shield with the 4 threaded mounting holes in the front and rear of
the enclosure.

2. Install (1) M5 x 12 mm screw into each of the 4 mounting slots on the sun shield and thread the

screws into the enclosure. Adjust the position of the sun shield forwards or backwards as needed and
then tighten the screws using a Philips screwdriver.

28

Installing the EMS8000 Mount

1. Install the EMS8000 wall mount flush against a flat surface. Drill mounting holes and a cable routing

hole (if needed) on the mounting surface using the mounting flange of the wall mount as a template.

Install the mount using four screws (not supplied) of appropriate type and size for the surface being

mounted to. The mount and enclosure must be installed above ground level of more than 3 meters

(9.84 feet).

2. Lift the enclosure up to the installation position and mount the enclosure onto the installed wall

bracket. Line up the mounting slots in the center of the wall mount bracket with the threaded holes in

the bottom mounting bracket of the enclosure. Secure the connection by installing the supplied (3)

M8 x 20 mm socket screws through the tilt bracket and into the bottom mount bracket on the

enclosure. Use the supplied 6 mm hex key wrench or a socket to tighten the 3 screws. Due to the
weight of the enclosure, it is best to have two people mounting the enclosure.

29

3. To adjust the position of the enclosure, use the supplied 5 mm hex key wrench or a socket to loosen

the pan and tilt adjustment screws. Pan adjustment is done by loosening the 3 screws on the

underside of the wall mount bracket. Tilt adjustment is done by loosening the 4 screws on each side

of the tilt bracket. Position the enclosure as needed and retighten all adjustment screws.
