3. Thread the wires through the base plate and screw it to the predrilled wall, ceiling,
CM Series Mini-Dome Recessed Mount, CM Series Mini-Dome Corner Mount, or 4S electrical
box. Check that the installation is not flimsy, will not wobble, and is flush with the mounting
surface.
Tip:
Use shims for shoring up mounts on uneven surfaces.
4. Snap the camera module back on the base plate with the wiring threaded through the gap at
the module base and then screw in the module-fastening screw.
5. Plug the Cat 5 cable into the camera’s Ethernet port and, if needed, plug the power terminal
block into the power terminals.
6. If applicable, wire the Alarm In, Alarm Out, Audio In, and Audio Out terminal blocks to
external devices.
