Installation -
Disassemble the camera
Before installing your camera, you have to read the following cautions.
1. The mounting surface must bear five times the weight of your camera.
2. Do not let the cables get caught in improper places or the electric line cover to be damaged.
This may cause a breakdown or fire.
3. For the installation process, remove the dome cover from the camera by loosening the screws
on the side of the dome. Remove the camera module protective foam.
4. Install the moisture absorber at the top of the camera's cover.
a. Remove the moisture absorber from the packaging.
b. Cut the card and folder along the dotted line.
c. Place the moisture absorber on the base of the camera, according to the diagram below.
NOTE:
The camera will generate enough heat to dry moisture
during operation. In most cases it will not need the moisture
absorber for more than the first day. In cases where the
camera can experience a moisture issue, users must keep
the moisture absorber in the camera. The moisture absorber
has an approximately 6-month life cycle, varying depending
on the environment.
WARNING:
It is highly recommended that you install the moisture
absorber when mounting the camera. The moisture
absorber prevents moisture from being captured
inside the camera's housing, which may cause image
performance issues and damage the camera.

aligning the four (4) bolts to the four (4) guide
points in the base guide.

NOTE:
Lens modules must be installed before
connecting the camera to a power source.
WARNING:
The camera must be installed with four (4)
lens modules. Installing only three (3) lens
modules can compromise the camera's
operations. When upgrading a firmware for
a camera with only three (3) lens modules
installed, the camera will fail to install the
firmware correctly.
NOTE:
When installing the camera, align the sensor
module's direction as shown in the diagram on
the left and fix the dome cover
carefully. Image distortion may
occur if the modules are not
installed correctly.
NOTE:
Do not tilt the lens angle more than 60°, for it
can cause a critical image distortion and focus
issues.
