Quasar CM-4251 Series User and Installation Guide
b) In the marked locations, drill each hole using a drill-bit of a slightly smaller diameter
than the supplied screw anchors (molly-plug anchor). You want to achieve a snug
insertion so that the plug expansion holds firm after the screws are screwed in.
c) Fully insert the supplied anchors into drilled holes. You may need to tap them flush
with the wall using a finishing hammer.
• For installing on a 4S recessed electrical box:
a) Have a qualified installer (check your local electrical codes) rough-in the 4S recessed
electrical box and run the wires and power (if not PoE) through the wall/conduits to
the box location.
b) Ensure that the box is sufficiently sturdy (attach to the wall stud, ceiling joist, or
reinforced surface as needed) to securely hold the weight of the camera.
• For bracket, pole and pendant installations:
a) Thread the power and Ethernet cables and any other wires (such as a relay output,
alarm input, audio in, or audio out) through the wire entry.
b) If you are not wiring from within the wall, you can run the wires through the cable
entry hole on the side of the dome.
c) If necessary, you may need to unscrew the disk from the cable entry hole and screw
it into the alternate unused conduit cable entry hole in order to seal it.
Tip:
Even if you are not using alarm inputs and audio input/output at the time of
installation, you may want to consider pre-wiring these connections for future use.
Note:
The power cable is not required if using PoE.
3. Thread the wires through the base plate and screw it to the predrilled wall, ceiling,
CM Series Mini-Dome Recessed Mount, CM Series Mini Mini-Dome Corner Mount, or 4S
electrical box. Check that the installation is not flimsy, will not wobble, and is flush with the
mounting surface.
Tip:
Use shims for shoring up mounts on uneven surfaces.
