Routine Maintenance

Most liquid cleaners or graffiti gel can be used to clean your camera enclosure. Do not use abrasive cleaners
that can scratch the window and reduce visibility of the camera.

If the camera housing or dome is damaged or scratched, order a replacement housing from your camera
distributor.
To remove and replace the housing, follow Step 3 Open the Camera and Step 7 Replace Camera Dome.

Installation Kit Contents

• 1 CHQ8PD camera, including dome, gasket, local video connector
cable (RCA output jack)
• Weatherproof cap kit
• 2 #10 1" screws with washers
• 1 Security key
• 1 Drilling template

Step 1: Choose Camera Location

1. Determine the location for mounting the camera:
• choose a solid surface to minimize vibration
• choose a location away from access panels, hatches, or doors which may block the camera view
• choose a location away from heat sources
Cameras are usually installed with the cabling running inside the wall panels.
2. Use the supplied drilling guide template to mark the cable (7/8") and screw (5/32") holes on the panel.
3. Use a step-bit to drill the cable hole, and regular bits for the screw holes.
4. Connect the camera harness's RJ45 connector to an NX/HX16 recorder's POE HD CAM port (or a
PoE switch, if applicable).
5. Thread the camera harness from the recorder to the camera location through the panel cable hole.
Tip: RJ45 Protective Cover
The camera harness ships with a protective plastic cover placed over the RJ45 jack to prevent damage to
the connector and the locking tab during installation.
Leave the protective cover in place while routing the cable from the recorder to the camera location.
Remove the cover when you're ready to connect the harness to the camera pigtail.

Step 2: Install Weatherproof Cap and Connect Camera

Tip: Install Weatherproof Cap
We highly recommend installing the supplied
weatherproof cap.
