Mounting screws
	 •	 The	screws 	and 	bolts 	must 	be 	tightened	
with  an  appropriate  tightening  torque 
according  to  the  material  and  strength  of 
the installation area.
	 •	 Do 	not 	use 	an 	impact 	driver. 	Failure 	to	
observe this may cause overtightening and 
consequently damage to the screws.  
	 •	 W h e n 	a 	s c re w 	i s 	t i g h t e n e d , 	m a k e 	t h e	
screw  at  a  right  angle  to  the  surface.  After 
tightening  the  screws  or  bolts,  perform 
visual check to ensure tightening is enough 
and there is no backlash. 
Do not remove or loosen the screws. 
Do  not  remove  or  even  loosen  the  screws 
(7 pieces) on the rear of the camera. 
Otherwise, water exposure may cause damage 
or  malfunction  of  camera,  or  camera  dropping 
may result in injury.

Preparations
When  installing  the  camera  on  a  wall  or  a  ceiling,  there  are  two  methods  as  specified  below.  
(+ Next page)
	 •	 Using	a	two-gang	junction	box
	 •	 Using	the	camera	mount	bracket	(accessory)
Refer  to  all  work  related  to  the  installation  of  this  product  to  qualified  service  personnel  or  system 
installer. 
Important:
	 •	 Prepare	 the	mounting	 screw	according	 to	the	 material	 of	the	 area	 where	 the	camera	 attach-
ment  (accessory)  is  to  be  installed.  In  this  case,  wood  screws  and  nails  should  not  be  used. 
For mounting a camera on a concrete ceiling, use an anchor bolt (M4) or an AY plug bolt (M4) 
for securing. 
    (Recommended tightening torque M4: 1.6 N·m)
	 •	 When	 using	the	provided	 camera	attachment,	 make	sure	that	either	 of	the	 arrow	 marks	 faces	
upward. 
	 •	 Required	pull-out	capacity	of	a	single	screw/bolt	is	196	N	or	more.	
	 •	 If	 a	ceiling	 board	such	as	plaster	 board	is	too	 weak	 to	support	 the	total	 weight,	 the	area	 shall	
be sufficiently reinforced. 
	 •	 When	 using	an	optional	 mounting	 bracket,	refer	to	the	 operating	 instructions	 of	the	 bracket	 in	
use. 
The mounting conditions of the camera mount bracket are described as follows: 
Installation 
place Applicable mount  
bracket Recommended 
screwNumber 
of screwMinimum pull-out 
strength 
(per 1 pc.)
Ceiling/wall (Two-gang junction box) M4 or equivalent 4 pcs. 196 N
Ceiling/wall Camera mount bracket (approx. 350 g) M4 or equivalent 4 pcs. 196 N
Ceiling WV-Q169  (approx. 700 g) –
– *
*   Make  sure  that  the  installed  mount  bracket  can  support  more  than  5  times  of  the  weight  of  the 
camera.

Using a two-gang junction box
	 •	 When	the	camera	 is	installed	 using	the	two-gang	 junction	box,	mount	 the	camera	 attachment	
(accessory) to the embedded box installed on the wall or ceiling as a \
first step.  
Note:
	 •	 For	wall	mounting:	
    Installation  shall  be  performed  in  such  a  manner  that  "MTOP"  of  the  camera  attachment  faces 
upward. 
  •  For ceiling mounting: 
    The front side (model number indication face) of the camera shall be aligned in the direction of 
the arrow in "

z Install the camera mount bracket on the wall/ceiling.
Note:
