Installing the Camera on the Ceiling
Using the supplied ceiling brackets, wire rope, screws 
and the attachment materials (not supplied), you can 
attach the camera to the ceiling.
When you install the camera, always install it on a level 
ceiling. If you have to install it on an inclined ceiling, 
make sure that the inclination is within ±15 degrees, so 
that the pan/tilt performance is guaranteed.
• When you attach the camera to the ceiling, entrust the 
installation to an experienced contractor or installer.
• Attach the camera to the ceiling firmly, after making 
sure the ceiling and the attachment materials (not 
including the supplied accessories) are strong enough 
to bear a weight of 60 kg. If the ceiling is not strong 
enough, the camera may fall and cause serious injury.
• Be sure to attach the supplied wire rope to prevent the 
camera from falling.
• Check periodically, at least once a year, to ensure that 
the connection has not loosened. If conditions warrant, 
make this periodic check more frequently.
Before installation
After deciding the shooting direction, make the required 
holes for the ceiling bracket (B) and connecting cables 
on the ceiling. For the dimensions of the ceiling bracket 
(B), see page 73.
Notes
• The connecting cables cannot be passed through the 
ceiling bracket (A). A hole for the wiring is required 
in the ceiling at the back of the camera where it is 
attached to the ceiling.
• The ceiling bracket cannot be attached to the junction 
box.
• Do not attach any object other than the camera to the 
ceiling brackets.
