with different IR frequencies. Use switches 1 and 2 to select the frequency to identify the camera as
camera 1, 2, or 3; then use the Camera Select buttons at the top of the remote to select the camera you
want to control.

Installation Guide for ConferenceSHOT 10 Enterprise-Class PTZ Conferencing Camera

Installation
This section covers siting the camera, installing the mount, and installing the camera.
Before You Install the Camera
All ConferenceSHOT cameras include a wall mount.
nChoose a camera mounting location that will optimize camera performance. Consider camera viewing
angles, lighting conditions, line-of-sight obstructions, and in-wall obstructions where the camera is to be
mounted.
nEnsure that the camera body can move freely and point away from the ceiling and lights. The camera
will not perform well if it is pointed toward a light source such as a light fixture or window.
nFollow the installation instructions included with the camera mount.
Note
Dome enclosures are not recommended for ConferenceSHOT 10 cameras.
Don’t Void Your Warranty!
Caution
This product is for indoor use. Do not install it outdoors or in a humid environment without the appropriate
protective enclosure. Do not allow it to come into contact with any liquid.
Use only the power supply included with this product. Using a different one will void the warranty, and
could create unsafe operating conditions or damage the product.
Do not install or operate this product if it has been dropped, damaged, or exposed to liquids. If any of these

Installation Guide for ConferenceSHOT 10 Enterprise-Class PTZ Conferencing Camera

Cabling Notes
For RJ-45 terminated cables, use Cat-5e or better cable and standard RJ-45 connectors (568B
termination). We recommend using high-quality connectors and crimping tools.
A DE-9F (DB-9F) adapter is supplied with the camera for making RS-232 connections to a third-party
control system such as AMX or Crestron.
Note
Use standard RJ-45 connectors and a good crimping tool. Do not use pass-through
RJ-45 connectors. Poorly crimped connectors can damage the connectors on the
product, cause intermittent connections, and degrade signal quality. Test cable pin-
outs and continuity before connecting them.
Intact – Contact fingers will make reliable
contact with the cable connector
Damaged – Some contact fingers are bent
and will NOT make reliable contact with the
cable connector
Pro Tip
Label all cables at both ends.

You can install the camera wall mount to a 2-gang wall box or directly to the drywall.
nIf you mount it to drywall, use the wall anchors provided with the wall mount.
nIf you mount it to a wall box, use the cover plate screws supplied with the wall box.
Note
Dome installation is not recommended.
About Ceiling-Mounted Cameras
