Mounting and Installing
The camera mounts onto the underside of a flat, vertical or horizontal surface using
screws. The surface must have sufficient strength to hold the camera. Materials such as
hardwood, brick or masonry are good options, and we've included all the gear you'll need to
mount it there (except the tools - sorry, you'll still need your own drill). You can mount the
camera onto a metal surface, but you'll need to supply your own mounting hardware.
To mount the camera:
•
Using the small hex key (supplied), undo the two locking screws on the sides of the
PRO-CAM dome.
•
Remove the top of the dome.
•
Attach the base plate of the dome to the
wall/ceiling in the position you'd like
using the supplied screws. If mounting
to brickwork, concrete or other masonry
surface, use the included wall plugs.
•
Aim the camera in the direction you'd
like. It can help to move a monitor or
television out to the camera's location to
ensure you get it aimed and positioned
properly.
•
Once the camera is aimed, re-attach
the dome cover. Ensure that the black,
protective plastic isn't obscuring the camera's vision.
Positioning your Cables
•
When running your cable, try to avoid bending it at sharp angles.
•
Don't put your cable near live electrical wiring. AC electricity generates radio "noise"
which can interfere with the signal from your camera.
Weatherproofing
•
The PRO-CAM is built to be weather resistant. It'll stand up to getting wet occasionally,
but it's not intended to be underwater all the time. When mounting the camera, ensure
that it's not in a location where water is likely to pool or build up over time.
•
Long term exposure to direct sunlight will adversely affect the camera. Over time,
the infrared and ultraviolet radiation will eventually begin to degrade the integrity of
the plastic cover, reducing transparency and making it brittle (and, therefore, more
vulerable to vandalism or accidental damage). Basically, put it in the shade!
