7. INSTALLATION
Notes
• Installations should be performed by qualified service personnel only in accordance with the National Electrical Code or applicable local codes.
• Do not touch any component other than the pc board, the lens or the DIP SW, as this will damage the camera.
7.1. Connecting Low Voltage Power & Video Signal
The wiring harness has a BNC connector to accept video coax and two stripped leads to accept the low voltage power. For mounting to a single gang electrical box, run power and video lines through a knockout into the box (not provided). When mounting directly to a wall or ceiling,run power and video lines to the desired location using 3/4-inch conduit.
Note
Before proceeding to disconnect the power at its source, be sure that the unit is of the proper voltage type for the line power.
7.1.1. Connecting Low Voltage Power
Connect the line and neutral wires.
1. 12 VDC Applications: Connect the 12 volt plus wire to the red lead.
Connect the neutral/ common wire to the black lead.
2. 24 VAC Applications: Camera operation is not affected by the polarity of the 24 VAC wires. However, in
multiple camera systems, consistent wiring configurations will help maintain roll-free switching.
7.1.2. Connecting Video Cable
Route and connect video cable to BNC connector.
7.2. Mounting
Refer to Figure 1.
1. Using the rubber base gasket as a template, mark the mounting hole locations on the mounting surface.
The unit is intended to be mounted with four #10 screws or four M5 screws (not supplied) through the four outer holes in the base casting. To attach the unit to a single electrical box, use the two #6-32 screws supplied.
2. Install the appropriate anchors or threaded fasteners.
3. Install a 3/4-inch threaded service conduit coupling into the back conduit hole, using pipe sealant on the
threads. If conduit is to enter from the side, use a 2-mm Allen wrench to loosen the set screw from the conduit hole plug. Remove the plug and reinstall it in the conduit hole on the back of the unit.
4. If mounting this unit outdoors, apply a generous bead of silicone sealant around the back of the base
casting, surrounding all holes. Apply the rubber base gasket to the back of the base casting and apply another generous bead of sealant to the outer edge around the exposed surface of the gasket.
5. Place the unit into position on the wall or ceiling. Install the mounting screws securely. If sealant is used,
make sure that the sealant between the wall or ceiling and the gasket forms a complete seal. Add more sealant if needed. Make all final service connections and secure the conduit.

8. ADJUSTMENT
Note
Do not touch any component other than the pc board, the lens or the DIP SW, as this will damage the camera.
1. Switch on the camera power after completing camera connections.Power is supplied to the camera.
2. Normally, set the Shutter speed switch to OFF position.Flickering of the picture may interfere with the view
under fluorescent lamp in the area with power frequency of 50 Hz. In such cases, set the switch to ON position, and the image free from flickering can be obtained.
Note
If the Shutter speed switch of the Mode setting switch is set to the ON position, sensitivity is reduced compared to operation in the OFF position. When using the camera in a dark location, or where light flicker is not an annoyance, set the switch to the OFF position.
3. Connect the monitor to the Monitor output terminal to permit a picture to be viewed on the monitor.
4. Adjust the camera angle.
Camera angle can be adjusted for up to 130º(± 65º) for horizontal rotation, for up to 140º(± 70º) for vertical rotation, and for up to 180º(± 90º) for picture tilting.
5. Adjust the angle of view with the Zoom ring and adjust the focus with the Focus ring for the best possible
picture reproduction. After lens adjustment completion, tighten both the Zoom ring fixing screw and the Focus ring fixing screw.
Notes
• Since the Iris control is factory-preset to an optimum position for general use, avoid tampering with it in normal conditions. Turning the control unnecessarily could cause reduced picture quality or equipment failure. When the Iris control needs to be readjusted to match a specific subject, first set both the Control switch and the Backlight compensation switch of the Mode setting switch to the OFF position, then adjust the control to an optimum level. After adjustment, place a hand over the lens for several seconds and then release to check the lens for correct iris operation.
• If the focus is adjusted for a subject under good lighting conditions, the subject may go out of focus when conditions become dark. To avoid this, adjust the lens focus after setting the Control switch of the Mode setting switch to the ON position. Be sure to switch it back to the OFF position after completing lens adjustment.
6. Attach the dome cover assembly to the camera after completing all necessary adjustments.
