Note
Above-the-wall assembly:
When installing an above-the-wall assembly instead of using a wall
outlet, you can break out one of the four cable openings in the base of
the mount to properly guide the cable into the mount.
Mounting the camera outdoors:
When using a wall outlet for an outdoors installation, you should
use silicone sealant to prevent water from entering the wall outlet and
the cabling by sealing off the mount's base against the wall. You
should break out the lower cable opening in the mount's base to pre-
vent condensation from accumulating. Make sure not to seal off this
opening.
When using an above-the-wall assembly, make sure that you install
the cable from the bottom-most cable opening in order to prevent
rainwater from entering the mount. When using an above-the-wall
assembly, sealing off the SecureFlex mount and the wall is not absolu-
tely necessary. Make sure that condensation can exit the mount
despite the above-the-wall assembly. Make sure not to seal off this
opening.
Wall thickness:
Make sure that the wall is at least five centimeters (2") thick if you
intend to use the supplied dowels and screws.
