Installing the Camera on a Surface
This section details the procedures of installing the camera on a flat surface such as a hard or
dropped ceiling and straight or tilted walls. Before installation, make sure the wall or the ceiling
can bear more than the weight of the camera.
Step 1: Drill the Holes
Before drilling the holes on the ceiling or wall, note the direction which side of the camera the
connectors are located on. This influences the camera placement and where you should drill the
hole where the cables will pass through or how the cables will go along the ceiling or wall.
1. Attach the supplied drill template on the surface according to the preferred camera
orientation.
2. Determine how the cables will be routed: pass through the surface or along the surface.
If the cables will pass through the surface, drill the cable hole and the three (3)
screw holes on the surface.
If the cables will be routed along the surface, just drill the three (3) screw holes on
the surface.
3. Detach the drill template from the surface and insert the plastic plugs into the screw holes.

Step 2: Open the Dome Cover
NOTE: To avoid scratches or fingerprints on the dome cover, it is recommended to leave the
protective plastic on the dome cover until the camera is completely installed. However, the plastic
has been removed on some of the pictures in this documentation to show clarity of the
procedures being described.
1. If the cables will pass through the surface, remove the threaded plug covering the bottom
hole of the camera, and attach the plug to the side hole to close it. The cables will be routed
to pass this hole from the surface.
2. With the included hex screwdriver, loosen the three (3) screws securing the dome cover.
3. Carefully lift to open the dome cover and place it on the side of the camera.
NOTE: Do not abruptly lift the dome cover; it is attached to the camera with a spring wire.
4. Remove the Styrofoam protecting the camera.

Step 3: Prepare for Waterproof and Connect the Cable
The camera comes with two (2) grommets used for waterproof installation:
Cable Grommet: For use with an Exterior-grade Ethernet cable. Exterior-grade
Ethernet cables are already waterproof. See Waterproof Solution with Bare Cable on
page 16.
Conduit Grommet: For use with a flexible conduit. This solution is recommended when
an exterior-grade Ethernet cable is not available or other cables, such as power adapter,
DI/DO devices, etc., will be connected to the camera. See Waterproof Solution with
Conduit on page 19.
Determine the type of waterproof solution that is applicable to your installation requirements and
prepare the necessary accessories or purchase extra materials.

For use with an Exterior-grade Ethernet
cable (not included in the package).
For use with 1/2” flexible conduit (not
included in the package)

Waterproof Solution with Bare Cable
This section describes the procedures in using the included cable grommet and an exterior-grade
Ethernet cable.
1. Disassemble the cable grommet as shown below:
2. Insert the clamping nut into the Ethernet cable.
3. Insert the compression sealing insert.

5. If the cable will be routed along the surface, pull the network cable through the side
conduit hole.
If the cable will pass through the surface, pull the network cable through the bottom
conduit hole.

6. Insert the compression sealing insert into the cable grommet body and then attach the
clamping nut to complete the cable solution. Same procedures apply to cable passing the
surface or along the surface.
NOTE: Make sure the clamping nut is tightly attached to the cable grommet body and the
sealing insert is squeezed tightly.
7. Connect the network cable to the Ethernet port of the camera.
8. In case a memory card will be used for local recording, see How to Insert the Memory Card
on page 38 and follow the procedures to install a memory card. Otherwise, skip this step.
9. Proceed with Step 4: Install the Camera to the Surface on page 24.

19
Waterproof Solution with Conduit
This section describes the procedures to waterproof the cabling connections using the bundled
conduit grommet and flexible conduit. This is the recommended solution if an exterior-grade
Ethernet cable is not available or when other cables, such as power adapter, DI/DO devices, etc.,
will be connected to the camera.
If other connectors will be connected or a memory card will be installed, the camera module must
be removed from the housing first. See How to Remove the Camera Module on page 32.
1. Prepare the following materials for waterproof installation:
Conduit Grommet
(included in the camera package)
Flexible Conduit
1/2" Trade size
(not included in the package)
For use with 1/2” flexible conduit
Network Cable
CAT 5 or CAT 6
(not included in the package)

2. Disassemble the bundled conduit grommet as shown below:
NOTE: In this installation, the conduit grommet body can be securely attached to the mount kit;
therefore the use of lock nut is not necessary. Please set the lock nut aside.
3. Pull the network cable through the flex conduit.
If connecting other input/output devices or an external power adapter, pull the cables through
the flex conduit without connectors. The terminal blocks will be attached once the cables
pass through the camera hole later.
4. Insert the clamping nut through the flex conduit.
