Installation Tips

• Do not face the camera towards any light sources.
• Do not point the camera towards a glass window. Or, it may result in poor image performance because of the window glare by infrared LEDs, ambient lights or status lights.
• Do not place the camera in a shaded area and point it towards a well-lit area. Or, it may result in poor image performance. For better image quality, please make sure that the lighting condition for both the camera and the capture object is the same.
• For better image quality, it’s recommended to clean the lens with a soft cloth from time to time.
• Make sure the power ports are not exposed to water or moisture or blocked by dirt or other elements.
• The camera comes with waterproof design so it can work properly under conditions like rain and snow. However, it doesn’t mean the camera can work underwater.
• Do not install the camera at places where rain and snow may hit the lens directly.
• The camera may work in extreme cold conditions as low as -25°C. Because when it is powered on, the camera will produce heat. You may power on the camera indoors for a few minutes before installing it outdoors.

To separate mounting plate from the dome camera, hold and press on the camera top and turn anticlockwise.

Drill holes according to the mounting hole template and screw the mounting plate to the mounting holes on the ceiling.

NOTE: Use the drywall anchors included in the package if needed.

Mount the camera to the mounting plate and turn the camera clockwise to lock it tightly. If the camera is not locked properly, the camera may fall when you turn it anticlockwise to adjust the surveillance angle.

NOTE: Run the cable through the cable notch on the mount base.

Once the camera is installed, you may rotate the camera body manually to adjust the camera’s surveillance angle.
