Precaution for installation

In order to prevent injury, the product must be securely mounted to a ceiling according to Installation Guide. This product is designed to be used indoors. This product is not operable outdoors.

• Consult the dealer about the installation area to select a strong ceiling area. Make sure that the installation area is strong enough to hold the total weight of the camera assembly (approx. 1.9 kg {4.2 lbs.}) before installation.

• The installation area shall have 180 mm {7-1/8 inches} or more space behind the ceiling.
  

• The thickness of the ceiling board for installation can range between 9 mm {3/8 inches} and 40 mm {1-9/16 inches}.

• Do not place this product in the following places.

  • Locations where a chemical agent is used such as a swimming pool
  • Locations subject to moisture or oil smoke such as a kitchen
  • Locations that have a specific environment that is subject to an inflammable atmosphere or solvents
  • Locations where a radiation, an X-ray, a strong radio wave or a strong magnetic field is generated
  • Locations near coasts directly subjected to sea breezes, or locations subject to corrosive gases such as from hot springs, volcanic regions, etc.
  • Locations where the temperature is not within –10 °C – +50 °C {14 °F – 122 °F}.
  • Locations subject to vibrations, such as on vehicles, marine vessels, or above product lines (This product is not designed for on-vehicle use.)
  • Locations where it may get wet from rain or water splash (including under the eaves, etc.)
  • Locations subject to moisture or dust
  • Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in temperature (In case of installing the product in such locations, the front cover may become foggy or condensation may be caused on the cover.)

•  The screws and bolts must be tightened with an appropriate tightening torque according to the material and strength of the installation area. After tightening the screws or bolts, perform visual check to ensure tightening is enough and there is no backlash.

• The pull-out strength of the installation area shall be 196 N {44 lbf} or more per 1 screw

Parts and functions

• If a tiepin type microphone is used, mount the microphone on the rubber-made microphone stand. Unless the microphone is used, cut the rubber with a nipper or conduct another treatment.

Installations

Be sure to read “Precautions” and “Precaution for installation” before installation. The Installation Guide of the network camera shall be read as well.

1. Remove the decorative cover.
   ➀ Loosen the fixing screw (unremovable) to be used for cover fall prevention.
   ➁ Unhook the decorative cover from the hooks (3 positions) of the camera mounting plate and remove the decorative cover by turning it counterclockwise.
   ➂ Take the inner cover out.
   

2. Remove the camera mounting plate.
   Remove the screws (M4, 3 positions) and remove the camera mounting plate by turning it counterclockwise.
   Remove the tab of the camera mounting plate (a) from the hole of the mounting base (b) (2 positions).
   

3. Put Template A (accessory) against the ceiling and make a hole.
   ➀ Make 4 holes of 12 mm {1/2 inches} in diameter.
   ➁ Remove the center part from the template.
   ➂ Make a hole of 160 mm {6-5/16 inches} in diameter.
   

• The hole shape is shown below.

  4. Install two anchor bolts (M10 recommended) into the concrete ceiling.
     ➀ Determine the anchor bolt length by use of Template B (accessory).
     ➁ Position the nut by use of Template B (accessory). (The distance between the bottom surfaces of the ceiling board and nut shall be 136 mm {5-3/8 inches}.)
     
     Note: If there is already an anchor bolt installed, it can be used as an anchor bolt for the safety wire. Make sure that the distance between the anchor bolt for the mounting base and the anchor bolt for the safety wire is 1 m {3.28 feet} or less before use.

  5. Mount the safety wire angle (accessory) on the anchor bolt for the safety wire and connect the safety wire (accessory) to the angle.
     ➀ Disconnect the safety wire from the safety wire angle.
     ➁ Engage the face marked ❶ with the anchor bolt.
     ➂ Bend the face marked ❷.
     ➃ Connect the safety wire to the safety wire angle again.
     
     Note: To use the anchor bolt that was already installed, the use of 2 spacer nuts is helpful.
     

  6. Connect the mounting base to another tip of the safety wire.
     
     

  7. Insert the mounting base into the hole made in Step 3.
     
     

  8. Secure the mounting base to the ceiling board with the ceiling board fixing screws (4 positions).
     ➀ Engage the top of the mounting base with the anchor bolt for the mounting base.
     ➁ Secure the mounting base by turning the ceiling board fixing screws clockwise.
     Turning the ceiling board fixing screws clockwise provides ceiling board tightening between the bottom of the mounting base and ceiling board fixing bracket resulting in mounting base securing.
     (Recommended tightening torque: 0.78 N·m {0.58 lbf·ft}
     ➂ Secure the top of the mounting base with double nuts.
     Important : When securing this bracket on the ceiling, make sure that the four ceiling board fixing brackets are open as shown in the figure.
     

  9. Prepare the cables.
     Run the cables from the cable inlet.
     Important : The cables shall be run from the opposite side of the mark, FRONT.
     Failure to observe this makes the cables unconnectable since the camera faces the opposite side.
     

  10. Install the inner cover.
      Slide the covers located on the both lateral sides of the camera and put the inner cover on the camera until the hooks inside the inner cover are held in the holes of the camera (until a click is heard).
      Important: Put the inner cover down on the camera until the outside cover of the camera cannot be seen from the opening (from which the camera lens is visible) of the inner cover. If this integration is not successfully performed, the inner cover may be removed or the hidden part at the top of the screen may become larger in the WIDE mode.
      
      How to remove the inner cover
      Press the inner cover from the front and rear sides inward (at the same vertical position as the hooks) to bend the cover and remove the cover from the camera.
      

  11. Mount the camera on the camera mounting plate.
      ➀ Put the camera onto the camera mounting plate with aligning the lock plate of the camera with the guide of the camera mounting plate and aligning the center of the camera mounting plate with the center of the screw for tripod mounting, and turn the camera clockwise.
      ➁ Secure the camera with 1 piece of the camera fixing screw (supplied with the camera).
      (Recommended tightening torque: 0.68 N·m {0.58 lbf·ft})
      
      Important: Be sure to mount the camera with holding the stationary portion of the camera. Camera mounting with holding the rotating portion of the camera may cause trouble.

  12. Connect the safety wire to the camera.
      ➀ Connect the safety wire locked on the mounting base to the camera.
      Make sure that the apical ring of the safety wire is engaged with the safety wire hook of the camera by pulling the safety wire after connection.

  13. Connect the cables to the camera.****  

14. Mount the camera mounting plate on the mounting base.
    ➀ Align the marks (Ⓐ to Ⓐ and Ⓑ to Ⓑ) between the camera mounting plate and mounting base.
    ➁ Mount the camera mounting plate on the mounting base with aligning of the camera mounting plate with “START ” of the mounting base.
    ➂ Turn the camera mounting plate until of the camera mounting base aligns with “END ” of the mounting base.
    ➃ Tighten the 3 screws that were removed in Step 2.
    (Recommended tightening torque:
    1.6 N·m {1.18 lbf·ft})
    
    Important : Do not let the cables be caught during installation work.

15. Mount the decorative cover.
    ➀ Mount the decorative cover on the camera mounting plate with engaging the projections of the decorative cover with the hooks for the decorative cover.
    ➁ Turn the decorative cover clockwise while pressing the projections upward and the cover is locked.
    Important: The mark, “FRONT”, shall be aligned with the i-PRO logo.
    

16. Tighten the fixing screw to be used for cover fall prevention.
    (Recommended tightening torque:
    1.6 N·m {1.18 lbf·ft})

17. Remove the protection sheet from the dome cover.
    Remove the cover film from the dome cover after the installation is completed.
    Note: When the camera lens is pointed in the horizontal direction, the inner cover interferes with the camera’s view, and consequently about upper half of the monitor screen is hidden in the WIDE mode.
