3.0 Installation
The Vega 2050 series is supplied ready-to-fit; it can be powered via PoE (RJ-45 or direct wiring), providing a plug and play
experience. Easy connection points are provided on two circuit boards in the housing chamber. It is important to ensure that
the housing is not opened or re-sealed under damp or wet conditions; as moisture may settle inside the housing chamber. This
section details the physical installation and mounting of the housing assembly.
3.1 Wall Bracket (Standard fitting):
•Use the three mounting holes to fix the bracket to the wall (Fig 1); the bracket can be removed from the housing body
to aid fixing, by removing the Pivot Ball (shown below). The upper-left and bottom holes are elongated to aid levelling
during fixing.
•Two cable entry points are provided (fig 2); at the rear of the baseplate (25mm ᴓhole), for cables passed through the
wall, and at the front; located at the bottom of the wall arm cover (20mm threaded for conduit). A screw cap is
supplied for this access point, in the event it is not used.

3.2 Removing the bracket to aid wall fixing:
•Remove the 4 Allen bolts securing the Pivot Ball to the housing body, using the 5mmm Allen wrench (Fig 3). Lifting the
Pivot Ball and bracket arm away from the housing body reveals 2 cable entry glands for access into the housing
enclosure (Fig 4); one of which is a split-gland; to allow a pre-made RJ45 cable to enter the housing. Ensure that the
rubber O-rings remain on the screws.
•Ensure that any unused Glands are closed off, to avoid damp air entering the housing.
•The wall bracket arm can now be attached to the mounting surface.
•The cable(s) can be passed through the bracket arm by removing the front cover of the arm.

•Remove the wall bracket front cover (Fig 5). Using the medium Allen wrench provided (3mm), unscrew the 4 fixing
bolts) and pull the cover away from the bracket arm.
•The cable access hole and locking ring assembly are now visible (Fig 6).
•Pass the cable(s) into the arm and through the cable access hole (16mm ᴓ), into the Pivot ball assembly (Fig 7):

•Offer the housing body up to the Pivot Ball and pass the cable(s) through the gland(s), ensuring unused glands are
closed off to prevent damp air ingress.
•Attach the housing body to the Pivot Ball assembly and refit, using the 4 Allen bolts. Ensure the rubber O-ring seals are
still fitted on each bolt. Tighten the locking ring using the optional wrench bar (Fig 8).
•Upon re-fitting the housing body to the bracket arm; position the housing and tighten the locking ring with the wrench
bar, and tightening one of the grub screws using the supplied Allen wrench (2.5mm) This fixes the ring in place and
ensures the housing remains firmly in position (Fig 9)

3.3 PED mount: fitting instructions
The PED mount is an alternative mounting system, designed to replace the standard wall bracket assembly. The PED is designed
to mount the VEGA™ housing to poles and towers using a 4” PCD fitting. The PED attaches to the housing Pivot Ball in the same
way as the wall bracket; with the same cable access. Removal is the same process as described in section 3.2, Fig 3.
•To tighten the lock ring in the PED, first remove the PED column cover, by removing the Allen screw as shown in Fig 10
below. Tighten using the optional wrench bar (Fig 11).
•Fix, pass the cable(s) through; attach the housing body; position the housing and tighten the lock ring as described in
section 3.2, figs 8 & 9.

4.0 Making the connections
4.1 Removing the housing cover
•First, loosen the front bezel Allen bolts by 3 turns. This will allow the housing cover to be removed easily (fig 8):
•Next, loosen the 3 Allen bolts securing the Housing cover (Fig 9). Be aware that silicon O-rings are fitted on the inside of
the screw holes. These must remain in place, to provide an effective weather-seal.

•Gently pull the housing cover backwards and upwards, noting that an earthing strap connects the housing cover to the
base. Ensure that the earthing strap remains connected at all times (Fig 10). Take care to ensure that the earth
strap is not trapped when refitting the housing cover.
•Ensure that the integral weather seal and O-rings are not disturbed, removed or damaged in any way (Fig 11). Moisture
ingress may occur if the seal is compromised, warranty cover will be void in this case.
