NOTE: Megapixel lenses are designed and tested to deliver optimal image quality to megapixel cameras. A standard definition lens installed on 
a megapixel camera will limit the resolution of the camera and create poor image quality.

1. Install the lens.

a.

Remove the cover from the lens mount.

b.

Screw the lens onto the lens mount. Be careful to prevent dust from entering the space between the lens and the imager. If necessary, 
use clean, compressed air to remove any foreign matter (refer to the instructions shipped with the lens). Make sure the lens does not 
touch the camera imager when installed.

c.

Connect the auto iris lens to the 4-pin connector located on the side of the camera. Refer to Figure 4 for the pin connections for the 
auto iris lens connector.

2. Use a standard screw to mount the camera in the desired location. The maximum thread depth is 0.25 inches (6.4 mm). The camera can be 

mounted from either the top or bottom, depending on the type of camera mount used in your installation.

NOTE: When installed inside an enclosure, mount the camera in an inverted position to allow easy access to the service port. Use the 
camera software to reconfigure the camera orientation for normal operation.

3. Connect the power wiring using one of the following options:

•

Plug the network cable into the RJ-45 network port on the back of the camera.

•

If the network has no PoE, connect a 24 VAC Class 2 power supply to the 24 VAC power connector.

Refer to Wiring on page 13 for more information.
