Mounting and Aiming Video Analytics Cameras
When installing an Avigilon video analytics camera, follow the listed mounting and aiming recommendations to
maximize the camera's analytics capabilities:
l The camera should be installed above 274 cm (9').
l The camera should tilt downwards no more than 45 degrees.
l The camera image should be level with the horizon line.
l The camera should be mounted to a stable surface to minimize the physical movement of the camera
after installation.
For more details, see Designing a Site for Video Analytics. The document is available in the eDocs app and on
the Avigilon website.
Preparing the Camera for Mounting
Perform the following procedure if you will be flush mounting the camera. If you will be mounting the camera
using an adapter accessory, refer to the accessory's installation manual for the proper installation procedure.
1. Use the mounting template to drill four mounting holes into the mounting surface.
2. If required, also drill the cable entry hole into the mounting surface then pull the required cables through
the cable entry hole.
