• Secure cabling so that it is not exposed or easily cut.
• Point the camera where there is the least amount of obstructions (i.e. tree branches)
• Take into consideration what you want to monitor and where is the best coverage area.
• Place your camera close to the area of interest.
• The best position is 10 ft (3 m) above ground, angled 15° down.

Mounting Your Camera

Test your camera prior to selecting a permanent mounting location, see page 9.

1. Use the mounting template to drill holes for screws, then insert the drywall anchors. Drill a hole for the camera’s cable if you plan to run it through the mounting surface.
2. Use the Allen key to loosen the camera’s adjustment screw, then remove the dome cover from the camera base.
3. Use the screws to mount the camera base to the surface. If you are running cables along a wall/ceiling, make sure to pass the cable through the cable notch.
4. Feed the camera’s cable through the camera base, then connect the cables (see page 9).
5. Angle your dome camera, then use the Allen key to tighten the dome cover firmly onto the camera base.
6. Remove the vinyl film from the camera lens once your installation is complete.

Connecting Your Camera

Connect your camera directly to your recorder using the camera’s Ethernet extension cable.

Weather-resistant Cap

To use the weather-resistant cap: Twist the cap securely onto your camera’s Ethernet connector.

The pre-attached weather-resistant cap covers both the camera’s Ethernet connector and the Ethernet extension plug to provide protection from weather, dust, dirt and other environmental contaminants. If exposed to regular precipitation, seal the cap with silicone and electrical tape for additional sealing.

Cable Extension Options

For different UL CMR approved cable lengths, visit lorex.com and search for the specified cable type in the table.
