Installation

• If you attach the camera in the height such as the wall or the ceiling, etc., entrust the installation to an experienced contractor or installer.
• If you install the camera on the ceiling, ensure that the ceiling is strong enough to withstand the weight of the camera plus the Mounting Adaptor and then install the camera securely. If the ceiling is not strong enough, the camera may fall and cause serious injury.
• To prevent the camera from falling, make sure to attach the fall-prevention rope (sold separately).
• If you attach the camera to the ceiling, check periodically, at least once a year, to ensure that the connection has not loosened. If conditions warrant, make this periodic check more frequently.
• Do not install the camera in a location that is exposed to sunlight.

Deciding the Installation Location of the Camera

Unit: mm (inches)

After deciding the direction in which the camera will shoot, make the required hole for the connecting cables using the supplied template ( - a ). Then decide the two mounting hole positions to install the camera ( - b ).

Mounting screws
The camera has two ø 4.5 mm ( inch) mounting holes. The required mounting screws differ depending on the installation location and its material. (Mounting screws are not supplied.)

Steel wall or ceiling: Use M4 bolts and nuts. (Hexagon head bolt should not be used.)

Wooden wall or ceiling: Use M4 tapping screws. The panel thickness must be 15 mm ( inch) or more.

Concrete wall: Use anchors, bolts and plugs suitable for concrete walls. (Head shape of M4 bolt: Pan head screw or hexagon head bolt should not be used.)

Junction box: Use screws to match the holes on the junction box. (Head shape of screw: ø 7 mm ( inch) Height 4 mm ( inch) or less)

The required mounting screws differ depending on the installation location and its material. If you do not secure the camera with the appropriate mounting screws, the camera may fall off.

Connecting the I/O Cable

Connect the wires of the I/O cable as illustrated in .

Wiring diagram for the I/O cable

Installing the Camera

1. Remove the dome case.
   Insert a flat-blade driver in the slit of the dome case outside (-a) and turn the dome case in the counterclockwise direction.
   Remove the dome case.
2. Attach the fall-prevention rope (sold separately) (-b) to the ceiling or wall and the camera.
3. Connect the network cable.
4. Insert the I/O cable.
5. Install the camera.
   Align the two screw holes on the camera with the fixed screw positions on the ceiling or wall using the supplied template. Then, tighten the screws (sold separately).

Note:
Install the camera in an environment warmer than 0°C (32°F).

Adjusting the Camera Direction and Coverage

1. Loosen the camera head fixing screw (-a) by turning it two or three times.
2. Adjust the camera to turn the lens in the desired direction.
3. Tighten the camera head fixing screw. (Recommended torque: 0.6 N∙m)

Notes:

• Adjusting the camera head angle without first loosening the camera head fixing screw may damage internal parts.
• Lens rotation direction is ±175°. If you turn the lens beyond the movable range of rotation, the wiring inside the camera may be damaged.

Attaching the Dome Case

1. Attach the dome case to the camera unit aligning the projecting mark (-a) of the dome cover with the recessed mark (-b) of the camera unit ().
   Turn the dome case in the clockwise direction until it is locked ().
2. Remove the protecting film on the dome cover.

Connection

Connection to the electrical power network
Connect the network connector of the camera to a PoE* supported device (such as a hub) using the network cable (straight, not supplied).
The electrical power is supplied through the network cable. For details, refer to the instruction manuals of the PoE* supported devices.
(* PoE: The acronym for Power over Ethernet. IEEE802.3af standard compliant devices.)

Note:
Do not turn off the camera immediately after turning it on. Wait for at least five minutes before turning off the camera.
