1) Locate the position in which you would like to place your camera and using the base of the
camera, mark the 4 installation holes with a marker onto the mounting surface. These holes will
be used to drill the holes needed to mount your camera.
2) Using a drill bit that is the same diameter or slightly smaller diameter than the included
drywall wall anchors, drill the 4 holes and insert the wall anchors into the holes.
Note: The wall anchors should be in the same bag as the screws and a designed to secure the
screws onto the mounting surface.
3) Attach the power cable and BNC cabling to the camera. (If you are running the cables
through a mounting surface, use a 1” paddle bit to bore a hole for the cables.)
4) Place the base of the camera on the wall anchors lining the holes to the mounting surface.
Then, using a Phillips head screwdriver, secure the screws and base of the camera to the
mounting surface.
Note: To adjust the camera, you can loosen the adjustment screws near the base of the
camera. Adjust the position as desired and tighten when complete.

To connect your camera to your DVR, please follow the steps provided below:
Step 1: Connect a BNC (coaxial) cable to the video out connection of your camera.
Step 2: Connect the male end of the DC power connector of the BNC (coaxial) cable to the
female end of the power connector of the camera.
Step 3: Connect the BNC (coaxial) cable to a video out channel on the back of your DVR.
