NOTICE
When using this housing in aggressive environments (e.g. where it is exposed to high humidity,
salt water, or other corrosive elements), corrosion of the housing and/or camera can occur.
To prevent this, seal all external stainless steel screws and fittings with a silicone grease
compound. This will help to extend the lifespan of the housing and the camera. This is especially
important for the wall mount.
WARNING
Incorrect electrical connections can damage the camera and lead to injuries when
using the housing and camera.
1. Disconnect the camera from the main power supply before opening the
housing.
2. Electrical connections should only be made by a qualified electrician.

Preparing the Housing
In order to install a camera inside the housing, you have to remove the camera mounting platform
(see Fig. 9) from the housing. The steps required vary slightly depending on the camera model.
Fig. 9: Removing the Camera Mounting Platform
1. Slightly loosen the four screws (circled in red in Fig. 9) that hold the platform in place. Don’t
remove the screws completely.
2. Slide the camera mounting platform along the screws in order to line up the screws with the
holes in the platform (in the direction of the arrow in Fig. 9).
3. Lift off the camera mounting platform.
The screws remain in place, still attached to the housing body.
Now you can mount a camera on the camera mounting platform.
To Prepare the Housing for Small Cameras:

By default, the camera mounting platform sits on four spacers (see Fig. 10). You have to remove
these before you can install a large camera (e.g. a Basler aviator) on the mounting platform.
1. Remove the four screws (circled in red in Fig. 9) that hold the platform in place.
2. Lift off the camera mounting platform.
3. Remove the spacers that support the camera mounting platform.
4. Return the screws to their original position.
Don’t tighten them fully. Screwing them in loosely is sufficient.
Now you can mount a camera on the camera mounting platform.
