Connecting the Camera
3
NOTE
• It is recommended to connect the camera to your DVR and test the PTZ controls before permanent in-
stallation. For instructions on how to setup PTZ controls, see 5 Controlling the PTZ Camera with your
MPX DVR.
• When you first power up the camera and connect it to the DVR, it may take up to 2 minutes for the
camera image to appear.
1. Connect the BNC video connector on the camera cable to the included extension
cable.
2. Connect the female 12V DC power connector on the camera cable to the male power
connector on the included extension cable.
3. Connect the BNC cable on the extension cable to one of the Video Input ports on the
DVR. Make note of the port number where you connect the camera, as it will be used
when configuring the DVR to communicate with the camera.
4. Connect the power connector on the extension cable to the included power adapter.
Plug the power adapter into a power outlet.
CAUTION
• Make sure to disconnect the power adapter before installing the camera. The camera will begin
moving immediately when the power adapter is connected.
NOTE
RS-485 is for service purposes only — not required for controlling MPX PTZ cameras.

Installation

4.1 Installation Tips and Warnings
• Camera is rated for outdoor use. It is recommended to install the camera in a sheltered
area, such as under the eaves on a roof.
• Use the included wall mounting bracket for wall installation.
Otherwise, the camera image will be sideways. You can also refer to the included
installation diagram guide for wall mounting instructions.
• Camera is capable of seeing in low light conditions (0.1 Lux), but it cannot see in total
darkness.
NOTE
It is recommended to install the camera where there is some ambient light (for example, street lighting
or starlight, moonlight, etc.) or leave some lighting on in the area where the camera is installed.
• Mount the camera in a location that can support the camera weight.
• Mount the camera where the lens is away from direct and intense sunlight.
• Plan your cable wiring so that it does not interfere with power lines or telephone lines.
• Ensure you adhere to local building codes.
• Ensure that the camera wiring is not exposed or easily cut.
• Mount the camera in an area that is visible but out of reach.
NOTE
This camera is suitable for ceiling mounting. Wall mounting requires included wall mount.
4.2 Extension Cables
• The included extension cable is 60ft (18.2m) long. If you are planning on extending the
camera’s video cabling beyond 60ft (18.2m), see 4.2.2 Connection Diagram for Extend-
ing the Cables Beyond 60ft (18.2m).
• Because this is a high-powered PTZ camera, the power cable cannot be extended be-
yond 60ft (18.2m). You may connect the included power adapter directly to the cam-
era’s power connector and plug the adapter into a power outlet near the camera.
• The RS-485 wires on the camera cable are for service purposes only.
• You can extend the camera’s video with a single cable run of up to 800ft / 242m long
(not included). Video quality may decrease if your extension cable is too long. For this
setup, you must purchase a single run of RG59 coaxial extension cable.
It is recommended to use a video cable with the following specification: RG59U 95%
Braid 20AWG or better.
NOTE
RG59 coaxial cable should be available from your local building supply store.
#LX400075; r.34576/35919; en-US 4

Installation4
4.2.1 Cable Extension Options
Extend the cable run for your camera depending on the cable type used.
Additional extension cables sold separately. See table below:
Option Cable Type Max Cable Run Distance
1Lorex 60ft (18.2m) BNC / DC
Cable
(Included with camera)

(Video Only2)
800ft / 242m
NOTE
1. The extension cable must be a single stretch of cable between the DVR and camera. You cannot
connect multiple extension cables to each other.
2. For cable runs above 300ft / 92m (option 3), you must connect the power adapter directly to the cam-
era, rather than at the end of the extension cable.
3. Indicators that your cable run may be too long:
• Video is permanently black & white (even during day time)
• Video is unclear, soft, or distorted
4. For more information on extension cables, visit www.lorextechnology.com/support
4.2.2 Connection Diagram for Extending the Cables Beyond 60ft (18.2m)
1. Connect the BNC video connector on the camera cable to a single BNC extension
cable up to 800ft / 242m long (not included).
2. Connect the female 12V DC power connector on the camera cable to the included
power adapter. Connect the power adapter to a power outlet.
CAUTION
• Make sure to disconnect the power adapter before installing the camera. The camera will begin
moving immediately when the power adapter is connected.
3. Connect the BNC extension cable to one of the Video Input ports on the DVR. Make
note of the port number where you connect the camera, as it will be used when
configuring the DVR to communicate with the camera.

4.3 Installation (Indoor/Outdoor)
The camera includes all necessary components for ceiling mounting and wall mounting.
For full instructions on each type of mounting, see 4.3.1 Wall Mounting or 4.3.2 Ceiling
Mounting.
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 dome camera base. This will keep
the dome camera base flush to the ceiling when mounted.
4.3.1 Wall Mounting
CAUTION
Make sure to install in a location that can support the combined weight of the wall mounting bracket and
the camera.
To wall mount the camera:
1. Use the Allen key (S3.0) included with the wall mounting bracket kit to loosen the hex
lock on the bottom of the wall mounting bracket. Once loose, remove the back plate of
the mounting bracket.
2. Use the Allen key included with the camera mounting kit to loosen the dome camera
cover screws (x3). Remove the dome camera cover.
#LX400075; r.34576/35919; en-US 6

Installation4
3. Insert the camera cable through the hole in the wall mounting bracket.
4. Align the 3 mounting holes on the dome camera base with the 3 corresponding
mounting holes on the wall mounting bracket.
NOTE
Ensure that the cable notch on the dome camera base is aligned with the cable notch on the wall
mounting bracket.
1: Mounting Holes
5. Use the Hex Bolt M4x10 (x3) screws included with the wall mounting bracket kit to
secure the position of the dome camera base.
#LX400075; r.34576/35919; en-US 7

Installation4
6. Holding the flat side of the back plate against the mounting surface, mark holes for the
mounting screws ST4 (x4) and the camera cable. Remove the back plate and drill
where marked.
NOTE
You do not need to mark holes for the camera cable if you plan to run it along the wall / ceiling.
1: Mounting screw ST4 (x4) holes, 2: Camera cable hole
7. Attach the back plate to the mounting surface using the mounting screws ST4 (x4)
included with the wall mounting bracket kit.
NOTE
Use the drywall anchors included with the wall mounting bracket kit if installing on a drywall surface.
#LX400075; r.34576/35919; en-US 8

Installation4
8. Connect the camera cables as shown in the 3 Connecting the Camera section, then
feed the cables through the cable hole in the back plate (attached to the mounting
surface).
CAUTION
If you run the cables along the mounting surface, you must run the cable through the side notch
on the wall mounting bracket. The camera cable will hang alongside the wall mounting bracket —
see image below for reference:
9. Lower the wall mounting bracket onto the back plate. Ensure that the 2 metal flaps on
the back plate lock into the 2 grooves in the wall mounting plate.
#LX400075; r.34576/35919; en-US 9
