Installation:

For best results, mount the All Sky Cam above the roofline, away from bright lights and any nearby obstacles. Please
orient the camera so that the side with an engraved 'N' points north. This allows easy understanding when viewing the screen by
orienting north up, east to the left, west to the right, and south to the bottom. The 'N' side is also the side with the two large set screws.
The All Sky Camera may be easily mounted with any number of methods. The preferred mounting is a standard satellite TV 1-
5/8" (40mm) J-pipe mount, av ailable from your local satellite TV installer, Radio Shack, or other s upplier. Some models i nclude poles
up to 38" long, allowing it to r each far above a roofline or fencepost. Any of the poles, masts, wall mounts, roof mounts, eave mounts,
and tripods intended for satellite TV or off-air TV antenna applications are good choices for mounting the All Sky Cam.
An altern ative way to mo unt is to emplo y a sturd y L br acket purchas ed from a hard ware stor e, scre wed i nto a hor izontal
surface with wood screws. F or temporary mounting, it is also possible to scre w a long wood screw through one of the 1/4- 20 holes in
the side of the ASC and into a vertical surface. Or, removing the two screws allows mounting on a photo or video tripod.

Connection:

After establish ing a mou nting for the camera, pass the camera' s wires throu gh the po le (if applic able) and conn ect it to the
supplied extension cable. Then cable connections must then be wrapped with the included Coax-Seal weather stripping to prevent rain
or dew from shorting out the power and video signals. See the Coax-Seal envelope for instructions. The extension cable can then be
routed through the pole and into the building inside.
To connect the All Sk y Cam to a te levision set, look on the back of the television for a yellow video input connector. It ma y
also be l abelled as "C omposite", "Vide o In", or "Vid eo". T hen s et the T V's input se lector to t hat input (see the T V's user ma nual fo r
