3.2 Mounting Positions

CAUTION!

The upright unit can be mounted either with the camera ball up or down. To get the picture the correct way for installation with the camera ball down, rotate the camera tilt axis 180°. For more information, see Section 5.6 Configuring the Camera for Inverted Operation, page 36.

If the camera is mounted ball down, it is essential that the connector and base area of the camera are completely sealed from water ingress. Any water getting into the connector is liable to cause corrosion to the connector pins, leading to unreliable operation of the camera unit. To prevent water penetrating the composite cable connector threads, seal the 25 mm thread at final installation using PTFE tape. Alternately, a suitable sealant may be liberally applied to the thread prior to final tightening.

MIC Series 612 cameras are designed to be mounted upright (straight up, 90°) or inverted (straight down, 90°). See the figure below for the correct ways to mount the camera.
