Installation Kit Contents
• 1 CHW Series wedge camera and cable
• 3 #10 3/4” Phillips screws
• 1 security key
• 1 Quick Installation Guide
• 1 Drilling guide template
1. Choose Camera Location
1. Determine the location for mounting the camera. Select a flat
location to minimize possible moisture leakage into the vehicle.
Cameras must be installed with the cabling running inside the wall
panels.
2. Use the supplied drilling guide template to mark the cable (11/16”)
and screw (5/32”) holes on the panel.
3. Use a step-bit to drill the cable hole, and regular bits for the screw
holes.
2. Connect the Camera
1. Connect the blue camera cable to the blue extension cable
through the panel cable hole. See Figure 1.
2. Connect the blue extension cable’s RJ45 connector into the Seon
Power over Ethernet (POE) supply.
3. Open the Camera
1. Using the security key supplied with the camera, loosen the four
captive screws on the housing. See Figure 2.
2. Lift the housing off of the base.
4. Install the Camera
Use the three #10×3/4" mounting screws supplied with the camera to
attach the camera to a wall or ceiling. See Figure 3.
The mounting gaskets on the camera base seal the screw and cable
holes when mounted on a flat surface.
5. Connect Local Video Out
1. Connect an RCA cable to the Local Video Out RCA jack, shown in
Figure 2.
2. Connect the RCA cable to a video monitor to see the camera’s line
of view while adjusting the camera’s rotation, pan, and tilt
positions.
NOTE: After plugging in to the RCA local video out jack, the camera
takes 5 seconds to display the analog video.
CAUTION: Vehicle Leakage Risk
For outdoor installations, if a flat surface is not available,
carefully seal the mounting holes under the base of the
camera after installation. Do NOT apply silicone or other
sealants around the base of the camera.
CAUTION: Seon POE Connection
The CHW camera extension cable’s RJ45 connector must be
plugged into a Seon POE-enabled RJ45 socket. Connecting
other POE devices to the Seon CHW HD camera will void
the warranty and damage the POE, the camera, or both.
Seon is not responsible for any damage caused by product
misuse.
Figure 1
CAUTION: Ventilation Blockage Risk
The camera is designed to vent for proper operation. Do
NOT apply silicone or other sealants around the base of the
camera.
WARNING: Seon POE Equipment only
The CHW camera is designed for use with Seon POE
injectors. Plugging it into other devices may damage the
camera, the device, or both.

6. Aim the Camera
To get the required video image, adjust the camera‘s rotation, pan, and
tilt settings using the adjustment controls shown in Figure 4 and
described in the following steps:
1. Rotation: depending on how the camera is mounted, turn the
camera lens until the silver triangle on the lens face is pointed
straight up to ensure the camera shows a level view.
2. Pan: grip the camera pan adjustment U-Bracket sides and twist it
to find the required view.
3. Tilt: loosen the tilt adjustment screws on the U Bracket until the
camera can tilt. Tighten the tilt screws after adjustments are
complete. Do not adjust tilt after tightening screws.
Do not adjust any other screws.

For configuration switch locations, see Figure 5.
8. Replace Camera Housing
1. Fit the housing onto the base. See Figure 6.
2. Use the security key to tighten the four captive locking screws.
