Preparations

When installing the camera on a ceiling or a wall, there are 3 methods as specified below.

• Using a two-gang junction box (pages 18 and 19)

Installing the camera directly on the ceiling or wall SW458M (page 19)

Using the supplied mount bracket SW458 (pages 20 to 23)

IMPORTANT:

• Procure 4 screws (M4) to secure the camera attachment (accessory) or the mount bracket (accessory) SW458 to a ceiling or a wall according to the material of the installation area. Do not use wood screws and nails.

For mounting a camera on a concrete ceiling, use an anchor bolt (M4) or an AY plug bolt (M4) for securing. (Recommended tightening torque M4: 1.6 N·m {1.18 lbf·ft})

Mount the camera attachment (accessory) in consideration of the camera angle in accordance with the instructions (pages 18 and 19).

Required pull-out capacity of a single screw/bolt is 196 N {44 lbf} or more.

If a ceiling board such as plaster board is too weak to support the total weight, the area shall be sufficiently reinforced.
