SECTION 2: INSTALLING YOUR SYSTEM
2.2.2 Mounting
1. Using the camera mounting bracket assembly plate as a template, mark the location for the mounting screws on the mounting
surface.
2. Drill holes into the mounting surface for the mounting screws, wall inserts, or other attachment hardware as needed.
3. If you are routing the video/power drop cable through the mounting surface, drill a ¾" hole near the mounting bracket for the
drop cable.
4. Attach the mounting bracket to the mounting surface using appropriate fasteners.
5. Attach the camera to the mounting bracket.
6. Loosen the directional adjustment screw and point the camera at your surveillance target, then tighten the screw to hold it in
place. (Note: This adjustment may need correction when video from the camera is observed.)
7. Route the camera drop cable through the hole drilled for it in the mounting surface, if used. If the camera is installed where
moisture may accumulate on it, leave a "drip loop" in the cable so that beads of water that collects on the cable flow away
from the camera and the drop cable connectors.
8. Attach a video/power extension cable to the camera drop cable (see diagram below). Note: When connecting the video
cables, fully rotate the lock ring to hold them together.
Extension
If the connectors might be exposed to moisture or other contaminants, seal them with electrical tape or other material.
9. Route the other end of the video/power extension cable to the DVR backpanel.
10. Repeat this procedure for all the cameras you are installing.
