Finalize Camera Mounting
Warning!
It is essential that the connections and the base of the camera are completely sealed from
!
water ingress. Any water getting into the connector is liable to cause corrosion to the
connector pins, leading to unreliable operation of the camera unit. This is especially
imperative for a camera mounted in inverted orientation.
1. To prevent water ingress, seal the threads of the securing bolts using PTFE tape (not
supplied). An additional gasket or suitable silicone sealant can be applied liberally to the
threads prior to final tightening to ensure a watertight seal between the base of the camera
and the mounting surface.
2. Use M8 x 20 mm stainless steel nuts, bolts, and washers to secure the base of the camera
to the mounting surface.
3. Tighten all bolts securely.
4. Secure all cabling and conduit.
Caution!
The upright unit can be mounted either with the camera ball up or down. So that the picture
!
from a camera installed with the camera ball down appears properly, rotate the camera tilt
axis 180°. For more information, see Configuring the Camera for Inverted Operation.
