}Make sure that all equipment is powered off

}Ensure the wall is strong enough to hold three
times the weight of the camera and the mount.
}If the mounting surface is cement, use the
included expansion screws to install the
camera. If mounting to a wood surface, use

Wiring Advisory
We recommend installing with RG-59 or RG-6
cabling with two-wire power (either regular or
siamese). This provides better performance over
distance than using traditional category cable
with baluns.
For more details on the cameras or cables, see the
product page at SnapAV.com.
