Instruction Manual (this document)
Before permanently fixing your C510R in the location which you wish to observe, fix it temporarily and
connect the necessary cables and check using your Video Monitor or TV to ensure you have a clear field
of view. Check also that the camera will not be pointing directly into a strong light source (check at
different times of the day to ensure the sun will not interfere with the image) or that there are any other
obstructions. Once this is complete, adjust the camera for focus and check that you have the correct field
of view. Once you are satisfied that the image is appropriate to your requirements, fix the stand to the
location correctly using the appropriate screws, and if necessary wall anchors. After mounting the
Camera Stand in the location the camera will be used, screw the C510R to the stand and tighten firmly.
Use the mounting hole in the top of the camera if mounting the C510R under a roof, ceiling or similar
surface to make sure that the picture shows correctly on your monitor.
