Chapter 2 Installation Type Guide
Three main kinds of installation are available for the QT-220EX:
1) In-ceiling Mount,
2) Surface Mount,
3) Bracket Mount.
There are 4 options for the bracket mount:
1) Wall Mount,
2) Corner Mount,
3) Pole Mount,
4) Pendant Mount.
NOTE: Installation site should be able to withstand at least 4 times the weight of
the dome.
Bracket mount dome has an Indoor type and an Outdoor type. Comparing to the indoor
type, the Outdoor type has extra sun-shield housing, temperature sensor and heater.
Also, the Outdoor type conforms to IP66 standard. (Refer to appendix IV)
WARNING: DO NOT install an indoor dome in an outdoor environment.
