Installing the Camera

Installing the camera on a desk

Place the camera on a flat surface.
If you have to place the camera on an inclined
surface, make sure that the inclination is less
than ±15 degrees to guarantee pan/tilt
performance, and take measures to prevent it
from falling.
Notes
• Do not grasp the camera head when carrying
the camera.
• Do not turn the camera head by hand. Doing so
may result in a camera malfunction.

attaching a tripod on the bottom of the camera.
The tripod must be set up on a flat surface and its

Installing the camera on the
ceiling
Using the supplied ceiling bracket (A)/(B), wire
rope, and screws, you can attach the camera to
the ceiling. When you install the camera, always
install it on a level ceiling. If you have to install it
on a sloping or uneven ceiling, make sure that
the place where you install it is within ±15
degrees of the horizontal.
CAUTION
• Entrust installation to an experienced
contractor or installer when installing the
camera on ceilings or other high locations.
• When installing the camera in a high location,
be sure that the location and installation
components (excluding the supplied
accessories) are strong enough to support the
camera and the mounting bracket, and install
the camera securely. If the components are not
strong enough, the camera may fall and cause
serious injury.
• Always install the supplied wire rope to prevent
the camera from falling.
• If you install the camera in a high location,
check periodically, at least once a year, to
ensure that the connection has not loosened. If
conditions warrant, make this periodic check
more frequently.
