INSTALLATION

The surface-mount hardware included with the camera allows easy installation in almost any situation, including retro-fit applications. Provisions must be made for physical wire connections, but the camera assembly itself is simply screwed in place.

1.Drill a 3/4” diameter hole in mounting surface to accommodate wiring.

2.Mount the main bracket in the desired location using three 1-1/4” screws.

WIRING

The camera requires RG6 or RG59 coax cable to distribute the video signal to a monitor’s or modulator’s video input. Use the power supply provided for proper operation. No additional cable or wire is shipped with the 7400 Series cameras.

1.The camera supplies video through the yellow female RCA connector. If required, use an RCA-to-F adapter (not included) to connect RG6 or RG59 video cable to the camera’s video connector.

2.The camera receives power from the power supply through a female mini-jack. Connect power to the camera using one of the following two options:

a.If the power supply can be located near the camera, connect the power supply’s mini-plug directly to the camera’s mini-jack.

b.If the power supply cannot be located near the camera, cut the power supply wire a few inches back from the power supply’s mini-plug. Strip both ends of the wire and connect a length of 18 AWG 2-conductor wire between the mini-jack and the power supply’s wire. Solder the connections and insulate with electrical tape or use wire nuts.
