Connecting the Camera

1. Connect the video output and power input connections on the camera tothe corresponding connections on the supplied video & power cable.
2. Connect the supplied power splitter to the power input on the video & power cable (repeat this step if multiple cameras are included).
3. Connect the supplied power adapter to the other end of the power splitter then connect the power adapter to a spare wall socket.
4. Connect the video output on the video & power cable to an available camera input on your DVR. Twist the connection to lock it in place.

For single camera packs, connect the supplied power adapter directly to the power input on the video & power cable.

Mounting the Camera

The camera can be mounted onto a flat vertical or horizontal surface and must be of sufficient strength to hold the camera.

Step 1: Press the button (1) to release the dome enclosure and the dome camera from the mounting bracket.


Step 2: You will see a black cable (2) connected to the camera, which in turn is connected to the camera bracket's black cable.
Rotate the seal cap (3) clockwise and gently pull apart the connection to disconnect. Remove the dome camera from the camera bracket

Step 3: Position the mounting bracket in the location you want to mount the dome camera to. Using a pencil or magic marker, mark the mounting holes (4) and hole (5) for the camera's cable.
Use a hole saw that you can attach to a drill to make a hole for the cable. A large drill bit can also be used.

Step 4: Using the appropriate screws for the surface you are mounting to, secure the bracket in place. If mounting to a wooden surface, screw the bracket directly to the surface. If mounting to a masonry surface (brick or concrete), you'll need to use the supplied wall plugs.

Step 5: Connect the Video & Power Cable to the corresponding connections on the camera's cable. Reconnect the black cable on the camera to the black cable connected to the bracket. Rotate the seal cap anti-clockwise to tighten.

Sit the dome camera onto the camera bracket (as shown above right), then place the dome enclosure into the camera bracket and lock it in place.

The camera can be rotated left or right (rotate the camera bracket left or right as well) or up and down. Check the image on your DVR and make adjustments as necessary.

Camera Location Tips

1. Take into consideration what you want to monitor and where you'll get the best view of it.
2. How you're going to connect the camera to your monitoring system; remember that cables and connections should be kept out of the weather.
3. How to keep the camera out of harm's way. We recommended mounting your camera at an elevated position.
4. Place your camera as close to the area of interest as practicable. The best position is from about 13ft/4m above looking slightly down, keeping in mind the details you are looking for.
5. Although the sky looks nice when you look at the live view from your camera, it is an unlikely direction for an offender to approach. Make sure your camera has minimal sky in it as the light in daylight can make the foreground of the image darker.
6. Think about the most likely way a potential offender may approach your home, use your camera to give you the best coverage of these areas.
7. The camera's casing is resistant to different weather conditions and tampering. It would take an overwhelming event to damage the housing.
8. The camera is weather and water-resistant but, prolonged exposure to adverse weather conditions such as sunlight and excessive moisture can damage the internal components.
9. Run cables inside a wall cavity or other protected enclosure, and ensure that all wiring and connectors are insulated and protected from moisture.
10. Don't put your cable near live electrical wiring. AC electricity generates radio noise, which can interfere with the signal from your camera.
