Tighten the thumb bolt. First Alert cameras can be either ceiling or wall mounted by simply reversing the camera stand mounting. See “Camera Orientation” Info box. Holes are provided on both the top and bottom of the camera housing to accommodate most mounting requirements. Run cable from camera to DVR location. See Information box below on “Longer Cable Runs”.
