6.11 Connecting Cameras
CAUTION
Cameras differ in terms of installation or mounting instructions. Please see the documentation that came
with your camera(s) for specific installation instructions.
Test the cameras before permanent installation. Plan where you will route the wiring for
the camera and where you will aim the camera.
Installation Tips
• Mount the camera where the lens is away from direct and intense sunlight.
• Plan your cable wiring so that it does not interfere with power lines or telephone lines.
• Ensure that the camera wiring is not exposed or easily cut.
• Mount the camera in an area that is visible, but out of reach.
• Avoid pointing the camera at a glass window to see outside, as this may result in a poor
image caused by glare from indoor / outdoor lighting conditions.
• Adjust the camera angle so that it covers an area with high traffic.
• In "high-risk" locations, have multiple cameras point in the same area. This provides
camera redundancy if a vandal attempts to damage the camera.
6.11.1 Installing Cameras
1. Mount the camera(s) to the desired mounting surface according to the instructions that
came with the camera(s). Choose a firm mounting surface.
Note
If you wish to mount cameras to drywall, it is recommended to use drywall anchors (not included).
2. Adjust the camera stand to ensure that the camera has a satisfactory view of the area
you would like to monitor. Stand configuration depends on the mounting surface you
have chosen (see below for suggested stand configurations).
