Installing the Camera on a Surface
This section describes the procedures in installing the camera directly on a flat surface, such
as the ceiling or the wall. For simplicity, most of the camera images used in the succeeding
sections were taken using the camera model with heat sink; same procedures apply to the
model without heat sink unless specified.
Step 1: Unpack the Camera
NOTE: To avoid scratches or leaving fingerprints on the dome cover, it is recommended to
retain the plastic covering the dome cover until the camera is completely installed.
1. Slide the mounting plate counter-clockwise to detach it from the camera.
2. Remove the silicon bag.

Step 2: Attach the Mounting Plate
NOTE: Before installation, consider the camera viewing angle and logo placement. The arrow
on the drill template and mounting plate align with the direction of the camera logo. Rotate the
drill template as needed.
1. Using the drill template, mark the holes on the surface. If necessary, drill the three (3)
screw holes and insert the plastic plugs.
2. Determine how the cable will be routed:
a. The cable will pass through a hole on the surface: In this case, drill the cable
hole based on the drill template.
b. The cable will go along the surface: Skip this step.
3. Attach the mounting plate on the surface using the three (3) supplied screws. Note that the
direction of the arrow on the mounting plate aligns with the camera logo.
NOTE: Make sure the screw is flat on the plate.
This arrow aligns with
the camera logo.
Rotate the template,
as needed.

Step 3: Connect the Cable
1. If the cable will pass through the hole on the surface, route the network cable through
the hole. If the cable will go along the surface, remove the cable exit tab on the camera
and route the cable along the surface.

2. Connect the network cable to the Ethernet port of the camera.
Step 4: Attach the Fixing Bracket
This step is required only for FCS-3053, FCS-3063 camera models with cables going along
the surface. Otherwise, skip this step.
1. Route the cable to pass through the gap on the camera.
