■

The camera and decorative cover should be prepared
as shown below when mounting the camera on a ceil-
ing or wall with its cables (power, video output, RS485,
alarm in, alarm out) exiting from the side. 
The camera mounting base needs to be removed in
order to prepare the camera. See steps 1 and 2 below
for information about how to remove the camera mount-
ing base. 

■

• Select an installation location that is strong enough

to withstand the total weight of the camera. Installing
the camera at a location that is too weak can cause
it to fall. 

• Remove the protective sheet after the installation

work is complete.

• If you are using an optional bracket to install the

camera, install the bracket in accordance with the
instructions that come with it. 

1. Remove the fixing screw (M3 

×

6) that secures the

camera to the mounting base. 
Put the screw in a place where it will not become
lost.

2. Rotate the camera base unit in the direction indicat-

ed by the arrow and remove it. 

3. Using the camera mounting base as a template,

mark the locations of the four mounting holes on the
ceiling. 
If you are using the top cable exit configuration,
mark the location of the cable hole on the ceiling
and drill the hole. 

4. Affix the camera mounting base onto the ceiling. 

Use screws (M4) at the locations you marked above
to secure the mounting base to the ceiling. 
If you do not plan to install the camera right away,
affix the dust protection sheet that comes with the
camera to the mounting base to keep dust off of it.

After loosening 
the screw, press 
upwards on the 
camera and then 
remove it.
