After the Micro-SD card slot is in the open position open it and place the Micro-SD card inside. Close the Micro-SD card slot and move it to the LOCK position as displayed on the Micro-SD card slot.

NOTE: The Micro SD-Card is mandatory for local recording. Please make sure the Micro SD-Card is CLASS10 rated. Supported are Micro SD-Cards from 8GB to 256GB .

Installation without mounting bracket

Step 1: Find the desired installation location for the camera. Position the camera where a power socket is insufficient proximity. Turn the camera ON and use the live view image from the app to position the camera where everything to monitor is well in view.

Step 2:
Use the included hex wrench to open the dome cover by unfastening three inner hex screws. (see below picture).

1.  Antenna
2.  U-shaped side exit
3.  Rotational Bracket
4. LED Ring
5. Ceiling or Wall
6. Plastic Anchor
7.  Dome Pedestal
8. Installation Screw
9.  Dome Cover
10.  Inner Hex Wrench

Take out the mounting map sticker and stick it on the ceiling or the wall.

Step 4:
Use the mounting map sticker, to mark the position of the drilling points. There are three holes for the screws and a big hole for the ethernet network port and the camera power connector.

Step 5:
Drill through the 3 small marked points and install the plastic anchors on the 3 small holes. Then choose one of the option bellow:

•  If the ethernet network port and camera power connector need to exit from the back of the camera through the installation surface, drill a hole according to the size of the bigger hole on the mounting map sticker. (For the big hole ideally use a SDS-max 20mm drill)
•  If the Ethernet Network port and Camera Power connector need to exit from the side of the camera, the cable must go through the U-shape side exit on dome pedestal. NOTE:
  If due to special circumstances, such as a reinforced concrete wall, it’s not possible to drill a hole of 20mm diameter, you have the option to cut off the thick Ethernet Network port – see “Chapter 2. Product Appearance”, and seal it with a proper sealing tape. With this option only a 12mm diameter drill is needed.
  Alert: If you decide to cut off the Ethernet Port, you will lose the possibility to connect the camera by Ethernet cable to a router or NVR. Additionally, you lose your right of return.

Step 6:
Adjust the dome camera according to the mounting map sticker and line up the three screw holes in the dome pedestal to the three plastic anchors holes. Fix the three screws in the three plastic anchors firmly.

Step 7:
Adjust the dome camera lens by moving the camera rotation bracket, and check the position of the camera with the live image of the camera on your mobile device. The camera rotation bracket can be moved manually by 355 degrees left to right and 64 degrees up or down. To prevent that the LEDs on the LED ring get blocked by the metal housing of the dome camera it is important to rotate the LED ring horizontal-ly by 355 degrees and adjust the lens image to the desired position.

Note: When it rotates to 64° vertically, please pay attention to the image rotation direction to avoid the outer cover blocking IR light and influencing IR effect.
Step 8:
Use three Inner hex wrench screws to fix the Dome housing on the pedestal.

Step 9:
Connect the Camera Power connector to the included power supply cable.Then connect the power supply cable to the power line socket. Optional: If you want to install your camera via Ethernet cable, connect your camera to the router using an Ethernet cable.

Installation with the mounting bracket (optional)

The VIO-DMB1 mounting bracket is an optional accessory purchased separately from the camera. If you desire to install the camera with the mounting bracket please refer to the manual inside the mounting bracket box.
