Installation

5.1 Installation Tips and Warnings

Make sure to install the camera in a location that can support the camera weight. If mount-
ing the camera on a drywall surface, you must drill at least 2 of the mounting screws
through a wooden stud. See 5.3 Installation (Indoor/Outdoor), page 8 for complete installa-
tion instructions.
• Camera is rated for outdoor use. It is recommended to install the camera in
a sheltered area, such as under the eaves on a roof.
• It is recommended to install the camera as high up as possible to get the
best possible image.
• Camera is capable of seeing in low light conditions (0.05 Lux), but it cannot
see in total darkness. It is recommended to install the camera where there
is some ambient light (for example, street lighting or starlight, moonlight,
etc.) or leave some lighting on in the area where the camera is installed.
• To extend the length of the cable, see 5.2 Extension Cables, page 6.
• Mount the camera where the lens is away from direct and intense sunlight.
• Plan your cable wiring so that it does not interfere with power lines or tele-
phone lines.
• Ensure you adhere to local building codes.
• Ensure that the camera wiring is not exposed or easily cut.
• Mount the camera in an area that is visible but out of reach.
This camera is suitable for wall and ceiling mounting.

5.2 Extension Cables

• The included extension cable is 100ft (30m) long. If you are planning on ex-
tending the camera's video cabling beyond 100ft (30m), see 5.2.1 Connec-
tion Diagram for Extending the Cables Beyond 100ft (30m), page 7.
• Because this is a high-powered PTZ camera, the power cable cannot be
extended beyond 100ft (30m). You may connect the included power adapt-
er directly to the camera's power connector and plug the adapter into a
power outlet near the camera.
• The RS-485 wires on the camera cable are for service purposes only.
• You can extend the camera's video with a single cable run of up to 800ft
(244m). Video quality may decrease if your extension cable is too long. For
