• Carefully plan the camera position and cable route.
• Select a dust-free location providing a clear view
of the area you want to monitor, and that is not in a
strong light source such as direct sunlight.
• Do not install the camera in a location exposed to
high humidity or rain.
• Select a location for the camera that has an ambient
temperature between -4°F (-20°C) and 122°F (50°C).
• Plan the cable's route so it is not close to power or
telephone lines, transformers, microwave ovens, or
other electrical equipment that could interfere with
the system.
Use the wall mount bracket to mark
the locations for the two mounting screw
holes.
(Optional) To run the video cable
behind the mounting surface, drill a third
hole at least 14 mm in diameter.
• If you plan to install the camera in a location with
harsh conditions, consult with a professional installer
and consider using a camera cover or housing (not
included).
• Before permanently mounting the camera, fi rst setup
and hold the camera in the desired location and
check its performance on the monitor.
• To illuminate the camera's viewing area, we
recommend installing a 100-watt incandescent lamp
or a small incandescent fl ood lamp.
To mount the camera, loosen the
screw from the base of the camera's neck,
and insert camera onto the arm of the
wall mount bracket. Secure the camera by
tightening the screw.
NOTE:
If mounting to drywall, drill the drywall anchor
holes just large enough to insert the anchors
fi rmly, then follow the steps above.
