1.6 Precautions on installation
1. Basic requirements for installation
zFollow local regulations about installation safety request.
zCheck out if accessories are complete. Optional accessories are
required for different installation sites. Please contact your local
distributors for proper installation accessories, so that the camera
could be installed safely without causing danger.
2. Check if the installation location is of sufficient height.
3. Check if the installation location is strong enough for supporting
cameras. Make sure installation spots (ceiling or wall) is of
sufficient strength to support the camera and bracket without
immediate danger of falling.
4. Cable standards
Coaxial cable for image signal:
Select proper cable length for your installation distance. Recommended
spec. is as follows:
zRG59/U: 750ft (230 meters)
zRG6/U: 1000ft (305 meters)
zRG11/U: 1500ft (457 meters)
RS485 cable
Please comply with RS485 wiring standards and select proper RS485
cable. Improper cable may result in RS485 communication
transmission error, which may cause speed dome cameras to react
incorrectly. Please pay much attention to this prior to installation.
When thinner or lower anti-interference RS485 cable is used for
connecting the camera, the maximum transmission distance may be
shortened and vice versa.
Details will be given in the follow-up sections.
5. Setting of Camera Position Code
Setup your camera ID address and communication protocol prior to
installation. In order to make a new setting valid, please shut down the
power before re-setting.
6. Self Test of Camera
The camera is available with the following self test. Carry them out
prior to installation. After connecting power, speed dome camera will

1-9
turn 90 degrees down vertically, then start horizontal scanning. This will
last for 20-30 seconds. Speed dome camera will then stop at the Preset
Position 1. On completion of these, the speed dome camera is in normal
condition.
7. Please keep the original packaging
After unpacking the camera, take good care of the original packaging. In
case any problem occurred, it can be used to re-pack cameras for
returning to the local distributor or manufacturer for repair.
8. Remove protection materials before supplying power to the camera,
so as to prevent it from faulty operation or causing mechanical
errors. See the following illustration.
