Installations
Be sure to read “Precautions” and “Precautions for installation” before
installation.
Refer to the operating instructions of the camera for details on the camera
installation (including the camera mounting, cable connection and adjustment).
Step1 Make a hole of 160 mm {6-5/16 inches} diameter using a specialized tool, etc.
Make a mounting hole in the ceiling using the template (accessory).
IMPORTANT:
- Make a hole precisely. When the opened hole is bigger or deformed too much, the ceiling mount bracket cannot be stuck on the ceiling board securely.
Step2 Fix the ceiling mount bracket onto the ceiling board.
Loosen the fixing screws by rotating them counterclockwise until the length between the clamp plates becomes wider than the thickness of the ceiling board. Insert the ceiling mount bracket into the ceiling board, and clamp and secure the ceiling board by rotating the fixing screws clockwise.
- The “i-PRO” logo on the camera and the decorative cover should be located on the side of this triangle mark.
IMPORTANT:
- When the ceiling board is plasterboard, make sure that no crack was made on the ceiling board by clamping.
Step3 Connect the cables to the camera.
Remove the enclosure from the camera body and connect the cables from above the ceiling board first.
Step4 Fix the camera body to the ceiling mount bracket.
The triangle mark of the ceiling mount bracket and the direction marker (FRONT↓) of the camera body should be located on the same sides.
< When directly attaching to the ceiling mount bracket >
Fixing screws (M4 x 8 mm: accessory)
Recommended tightening torque: 1.6 N·m {1.18 lbf·ft}
< When using the attachment plate >
Align the attachment fixing screws on the bottom side of the camera with the holes of the attachment plate, and temporarily attach the camera by rotating it about 15° clockwise. Next, secure the camera with the camera fixing screw.
From here on explanations use illustrations for < When using the attachment plate >.
Step5 Adjust the angle of view of the camera and attach the enclosure.
Adjust the PAN, TILT, etc. of the camera, and then adjust the angle of view. When the adjustment is completed, attach the enclosure to the camera.
- If the AF (Auto Focus) button on the side of the camera body must be pressed after installing the camera, use the AF button push tool (accessory).
IMPORTANT:
- After complete installation, remove the protection film from the dome cover.
- Attaching the enclosure may cause slight defocusing. In this case, execute the auto focus function from the setup menu.
- If there are fingerprints or dirt on the dome cover, wipe the dome cover with a soft, dry cloth.
Step6 Attach the decorative cover
Align the bracket with the 3 guides of the decorative cover, pull out both the
spring hooks and attach the hooks to the decorative cover.
Make sure that the cover is attached to the ceiling with no space between
them.
- Match the “i-PRO” logos on the cover and on the camera.
