							4. Precautions before receiver installations  
•When mounting 3 to 4 connected receiver side units to the rack, use the following
bracket (locally procured).
– Rack mount bracket: For WJ-PR204/WJ-PR201: BY-HCA10A
For WJ-PR204E/WJ-PR201E: BY-HCA10CE
• Available racks – EIA standard rack or equivalent (third party)EIA19 type
• Rack mounting screws
– M5  ´ 12 mm {15/32 inches} screws
5. Precautions before camera installations 
• Use the screws with the specifications shown on page 25 when mounting the camera side unit to a ceiling or wall. Screws are included with camera side unit.
Use screws that are appropriate for the material of the ceiling or wall.
• When mounting the camera side unit to a ceiling or wall (see page 25), do not drive the screws into a soft material. Drive the screws into a secure, 25 mm
(1 inch) thick area of the ceiling or wall, such as a crossbeam, otherwise the
camera side unit may fall. If there is no crossbeam, place a board on the other
side of the ceiling or wall to make sure the camera side unit is securely mounted.
• When mounting a camera side unit on a concrete or mortar ceiling or wall, use a drill and anchors (locally procured, body diameter 4 mm {3/16 inches}) and
make holes using the following procedure.
i.
Mark points where you are going to make holes (2 places) according to the
position of the camera side unit.
ii.
Make holes in the areas that you marked with an electric drill.
• Mortar ceilings break easily when drilling. Be careful of pieces of mortar which may become loose and fall.
iii.
Insert the anchors  (locally procured) into the holes and push them inside with
a hammer.
• Mount the camera side unit to a secure area and make sure that the anchors and
screws are secured.

							6. Screw tightening• The screws and bolts must be tightened with an appropriate tightening torqueaccording to the material and strength of the installation area.
• Do not use an impact driver. Use of an impact driver may damage the screws or
cause tightening excessively.
• When a screw is tightened, make the screw at a right angle to the surface. After
tightening the screws or bolts, perform checks to ensure that the tightening is
sufficient enough so that there is no movement or looseness.
7. Coaxial cable connections • Disconnect the coaxial cable from all devices and measure the insulationresistance of the coaxial cable (new or existing) before making connections.
Insulation resistance value: 1 M W or more for DC 500 V
• Confirm the length of the coaxial cable (see page 30, page 32).
• We recommend RG-6/U coaxial cable.
• The performance of the coaxial cable may be affected if it is relayed.
• Use only the following recommended BNC plug when connecting coaxial cables
to the BNC connectors of the unit.
– Applicable plug: MIL-C39012C, MIL-C39012/16F, or BS CECC2212: 1981 (Suffixes attached to the standards may be updated.)
– Tip dimensions inside the recommended BNC plug
IMPORTANT
• Use a suitable plug. Using a non-specified plug may cause a badconnection or cause damage to the BNC connector.

							8. Mounting and connections• Do not mount camera side units above or below other camera side units. Thiscan cause transmission interference. When mounting several camera side units
in the same area, mount them side by side each other.
• When connecting the coaxial cable to the unit, make sure that no other devices are connected to the coaxial cable. Connecting the coaxial cable to the unit when
there are other devices connected (such as an analog CCTV camera), may
cause damage to the connected device.
• When another device such as lightning arresters is connected to the coaxial cable, it may give impact to transmission quality.Do not connect other devices to
the coaxial cable.
9. Sulfurization caused by rubber products Do not store or install any rubber products (such as gaskets or rubber feet) that
contain sulfer near or in the same container as this product. Sulfuric compounds in
the rubber product may cause sulfuric corrosion of this product’s electrical
components or terminals, leading to malfunction.
10. Shielded (STP) LAN cables must be used with this unit to ensure compliance with CE standards. (WJ-PR204E/WJ-PR201E/WJ-PC200E)
11. Make sure to remove this product if it will no longer be used.20Operating Instructions
