surface or cable notch.

mounting the camera onto drywall.
3. Mount the camera stand to the mounting surface using the

Installing the Camera
Cable Notch
C883DA_QSG_EN_R1
A. ROTATING THE ARM: Loosen the adjustment ring by turning it
counter-clockwise. Rotate the arm of the camera up to 180° in either
direction, then tighten the adjustment ring. Make sure to adjust with
caution, multiple full turns could damage the internal wiring.
B. BENDING THE ARM: Use a Phillips head screwdriver (not included)
to loosen the adjustment screw. Bend the arm of the camera up to
90°, then tighten the screw.
C. LEVELING THE CAMERA: Use the screwdriver to loosen the
adjustment screw. Rotate the camera until it is level with the viewing
area, then tighten the screw.
ATTENTION:
Test your camera prior to selecting a permanent mounting location by
temporarily connecting the camera and cable to your recorder.
Before Installing the Camera
• Decide whether to run the cables through
the wall / ceiling (drilling required) or along
the wall / ceiling.
• If you run the cables along the wall /
ceiling, you must run the cable through the
cable notch on the base. This will keep the
camera base ush to the surface when
mounted.
