Mounting the Camera (VN-H657BU)

TOP

With the FRONT mark ( big-arrow-u ) facing the shooting direction, secure the ceiling mount section to the ceiling.

Ensure that the connection cables are not caught in between and secure the ceiling mount section to the ceiling with 3 screws.

VN-H657_cameraMount-7
Note

Use M4 fixing screws and bolts.

Use Φ4.1 wooden screws.

The length of the screws should be 25 mm (1inch) and above.

Place and install the product horizontally. The camera will not operate properly if it is slanted.

The screw head should be 5 mm and below. If the ceiling structure is metal, image noise may occur.

Do not use screws for which the screw head is embedded after fastening. (e.g. flat countersunk head screws). Otherwise, the insulating resin part may be damaged, thus preventing proper insulation.

Memo

Always use three screws and mount securely.

Tighten the screws again during maintenance just to be safe.

The plastic parts on the ceiling fixing holes of the ceiling mount section act as an insulation between the ceiling mount section and the ceiling structure. If the ceiling structure is metal and insulation is not provided between the camera and the ceiling structure, image noise may occur. Be sure to provide insulation.

Remove the tape, lens cap, and packing sheet from the lens section of the camera.
