Important Safety Information
• Read and keep these instructions.
• Heed all warnings.
• Follow all instructions.
• Do not use this apparatus near water.
• Clean only with dry cloth.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus.
Precautions
• Please ensure that your installation area can support the weight of the
camera.
• Do not install the camera in extreme temperature conditions. Only use
the camera where temperatures are between -13°F and 122°F (-25°C
and 50°C). Be especially careful to provide ventilation when operating
under high temperatures.
• Do not aim the camera towards an extreme light source to prevent
damaging the CCD.
• Do not touch the camera bezel (front glass plate).
• Do not drop the camera or subject it to physical shock.
• Do not expose the camera to radioactivity.
• Do not use a strong or abrasive detergent when cleaning the camera.
Caution The light emitted from the near-infrared light emitting
diodes (LEDs) provides illumination over a wide area.
This light is not considered a risk to the unshielded
human eye. However, as with any light source, it is
recommended that normal precautions be taken to
avoid unnecessary exposure. For example, avoid
staring into the beam or viewing directly with optical
instruments at close range.
Note IR LEDs could be warm after prolonged use.

Before You Begin
Unpack Everything
Check that the items received match those listed on the order form and
packing slip. The HCD95534 packing box should include, in addition to this
User Guide:
• One HCD95534 camera
• Four mounting screws
• One video test cable
• One allen wrench
• One adapter plate for 4S mounting box
If any parts are missing or damaged, contact the dealer you purchased the
camera from or call Honeywell Customer Service (see the back of this
manual).
Note A Phillips screwdriver and a flathead screwdriver may assist your
installation.
Installation
The HCD95534 camera is designed for installation on a wall or ceiling. The
HCD95534 is weather sealed for indoor or outdoor locations.
Attaching the Camera
1. Position the camera to the desired mounting location on a wall or ceiling.
Be sure the location is solid on a flat, smooth surface (for example, a
crossbeam).
2. Using the supplied mounting template, mark the four screw holes for
installation.
3. Using four screws appropriate to your installation, mount the camera at
the marked holes.
The mounting bracket can be separated from the camera housing for
easier installation. This is done by unscrewing and removing the thumb
screw on the bracket. Replace and tighten the thumb screw after
installation is complete.

Document 800-01802 Rev B 9
02/09
Note To ensure a waterproof installation, the notch in the camera base
that the power and video connections exit through should be facing
down.
If the power and video connections exit the top of the base (wall
mounted only), water may pool in the camera base. To minimize
moisture entering the base, apply appropriate sealant around the
notches and any other gaps between the camera base and the
mounting surface.
Positioning the Camera
Caution Do not swivel and position the camera without the
mounting bracket firmly in place.
Loosen the thumb screws and move the camera into position. Swivel the
camera to capture the desired field of view. Tighten the thumb screws to set
the position.
Lens Setup
Adjusting the Zoom and Focus of the Lens
The zoom and focus adjustment is located on the underside front end of the
camera housing. Use a flathead screwdriver to adjust the zoom and/or focus.
