Installing Cable-Safe Mounting Bracket
Decide if the camera is to be wall or ceiling mounted and if cable will be
fed through mounting surface hidden directly behind the bracket or fed
through the side of the bracket so cable is exposed. Mark area where
you will drill your hole. The Cable-Safe Mounting Bracket has three
Adjusting Points. 1) Rotates Bracket 360° relative to mounting surface, 2)
Adjusts bracket hinge 180° and 3) Rotates camera body 360° to
level image.
Step 1: Select the position for the camera and drill your hole for the
cable. Feed cable through mounting surface. Mount bracket to surface.
Step 2: Aim camera at target and using Adjusting Points 1 and 2 in
tandem position camera. Tighten Ring and Thumb Screw.
Step 3: Rotate camera body using Adjusting Point 3 to the proper view
angle making sure the Camera Shield is always on top and parallel to
the ground so the image is level in the Live View Screen. See “Camera
Orientation” Info box. Tighten screw.
Step 4: Attach proper length of cable and run from camera to DVR
location. Note: Power cable ends are different. Be sure the correct
power connector end matches “To Camera” or “To DVR”. Tip - Connect
cable at camera end before running cable to verify orientation is correct.
Also, see Information box on “Longer Cable Runs”.
Step 5: Check camera orientation via the Live View screen.
Adjust as required.
