HD820 QUICK START GUIDE
The HD820 camera can be installed directly
onto a wall or the ceiling. Be sure that the
structure is strong enough to support the
camera.
1. Remove the camera dome cover by
removing 3 dome screws and lifting.
2. Use the included mounting template to
pre-drill holes for the mounting screws
and, if passing the cable through the
ceiling or wall, drill a 7/8” hole.
3. If surface mounting the cable, unscrew
and remove the cable knockout on the
side of the dome.
4. Connect the camera cable from the ceiling
or wall to the dongle on the camera. If
using the waterproof cable connector,
attach it now. See instructions below.
5. A󰀩x the base of the camera to the wall with
the included self-tapping screws and wall
anchors. If wall mounting, orient camera so
cable knockout faces downward.
6. Adjust the camera to the desired angle.
• The HD820 features 3-axis camera
positioning: Tilt, Camera Rotation, and
Lens Rotation.
• For proper image orientation, rotate
the lens so the IR lights are positioned
directly above or below the lens.
7. Replace the dome cover. To install, align
screws to the holes. Tighten dome cover
screws just enough for a good seal.

• For outdoor installations, ensure the connection between your network cable
and the camera jack is housed within a wall or indoors or use the waterproof
cable connector.
• For outdoor installations, use silicone caulking to seal any holes in the wall or
ceiling to protect against leaks.
• If your installation is in a commercial building, consult local re codes. Plenum
rated cable may be required.

the RJ-45 plug.
