 w  Engage the attachment mounting screw of 
the camera with the camera mounting hole 
of  the  camera  attachment  and  rotate  the 
camera  in  the  direction  of  the  arrow  to  the 
"LOCK"  position  to  secure  the  camera  to 
the  camera  attachment  without  any  back-
lash. 
  e  Connect  the  power  cord  and  the  video 
output  cable  at  the  side  of  the  mounting 
base. (+ page 28)
    Apply  waterproof  treatment  to  the  con-
nected section. (+ page 26)
  r  Accommodate  the  connected  cables 
inside  the  cable  guide  of  the  mounting 
base. 
Important:
	 •	 To	 prevent	 the	cables	 from	being	 caught	
when  the  cover  is  attached,  keep  the 
cables inside the cable guide.

direction,  but  the  image  azimuth  is 
reversed.  In  such  a  case,  turn  the  panning 
table  to  the  180  °  side  to  correct  the  azi-
muth image.
	 •	 When	 used	at	an	 angle	 that	is	close	 to	hor -
izontal,  it  must  be  noted  that  the  shadow 
of the dome cover may be projected.

Waterproof treatment for the cable joint sections
Adequate waterproof treatment is required for the cables when the camera with exposed cables is 
installed  by  means  of  the  mounting  base  or  it  is  installed  under  the  eaves.  The  camera  body  is 
waterproof, but the cable ends are not waterproof. 
Be sure to use the supplied butyl tape at the connection parts of the power cord and video output 
cable  to  apply  waterproof  treatment  in  the  following  procedure.  Failure  to  observe  this  may  cause 
water leakage resulting in malfunction.

Stretch  the  tape  by  approx.  twice  (see  the  illustration  below)  and  wind  it  around  the  cable.  Insuffi-
cient tape stretch causes insufficient waterproofing. Note:
	 •	 To	 install	this	product	 outdoors,	 be	sure	 to	waterproof	 the	cables.	 The	camera	 body	is	water -
proof (IEC IP66 or equivalent) only when installation specified in this document and appropriate 
waterproofing are properly performed. The bracket is not waterproof. 
	 •	 The	cable	shall	be	wound	with	butyl	tape	in	a	half-overlapping	manner.	
    
When using power 
cord
When using video output cable
Dobled length
Stretch the tape to about twice. 
						

							27
Important:
	 •	 If	 open	wiring	 is	conducted,	 be	sure	 to	use	 conduits	 and	run	the	cables	 inside	the	tubes	 to	pro-
tect the cables from direct sunlight. 
	 •	 When	 the	conduit	 is	connected	 at	the	 lateral	 or	bottom	 position,	 either	of	the	 arrow	 marks	 on	
the bracket shall be the top position.
	 •	 When	 the	conduit	 is	connected	 from	the	top,	 the	arrow	 mark	on	the	 attachment	 shall	be	either	
of the right or left position. 
    
    
	 •	 For	 installation	 on	the	 wall,	 do	not	 connect	 the	dehumidifying	 device	at	the	 upper	 side	to	pre-
vent water from being stored in the dehumidifying device. 
    If water remains inside, the dehumidifying device cannot function properly. 
	 •	 Installation	 work	shall	be	such	 that	there	 is	no	 intrusion	 of	water	 into	the	architecture	 through	
the conduits having been joined.

Optional Heater Unit WV-CW5H (option)
Installing  the  heater  unit  enables  the  camera  to  operate  in  a  low-temperature  environment  below 
–30 °C {–22 °F}. The heater turns on automatically when the temperature inside the camera drops 
below +10 °C {50 °F} and turns off when the temperature rises. A small fan inside the unit will mini-
mize  condensation  on  the  surface  of  the dome  cover  caused  by  changes  in  ambient  temperature 
unless temperatures change too rapidly.  
Important:
	 •	 When	using	12	V	DC	power	supply,	the	optional	heater	unit	is	unavailable.	
	 •	 Turning	the	heater	on	and	off	may	disturb	the	camera	images.	
	 •	 The	power	supply	of	the	camera	shall	be	turned	off	when	mounting	or	dismounting	the	heater.	
    When servicing, pay attention to high temperature on the surface of the heater unit. Disconnect 
the harness and wait until the heater unit cools. 
	 •	 When	 the	camera	 is	installed	 and	operated	 in	low	 temperatures	 below	–10	°C	{14	 °F},	 normal	
images may not be obtained immediately after startup. In such a case, wait  around 60 minutes 
or more. 
How to install the heater unit
  q  Remove  the  camera’s  dome  cover  and  mount  it  in  the  specified  position  with  the  supplied 
screw. 
  w  Connect the heater unit cable to the connector of the camera. 
Important:
	 •	 After	 mounting	 the	heater	 unit,	arrange	 the	harness	 cable	as	shown	 in	the	 drawing	 so	as	not	 to	
be tangled around the dome cover , safety wire, and equipment inside the camera. 
Screw for heater unit* 
(supplied with heater unit)
* Two screws including a spare screw are 
provided as the standard accessories.
