Figure 2-1 Fix the Mounting Base
Note:
Please apply water-proof measures between the ceiling
surface and mounting base and around the cables.
For cement wall mounting, you need to use the expansion
screw to fix the mounting base. The mounting hole of the
expansion pipe on the wall should align with the mounting
hole on the mounting base.
For wooden wall mounting, you can just use the
self-tapping screw to fix the mounting base.
The wall must be strong enough to withstand more than 3
times of the weight of the camera and the bracket.
2. Fix the mounting bracket with the camera to the mounting
base.
