SURFACE INSTALLATION Start by preparing the mounting surface.
Based on installation location and sur-
face type, supplied screws and anchors
may not be adequate.
Use the (optional) B71 back box for
pendant or horizontal wall-mounting
and use a 3/4” NPT pipe or DB60,
respectively. Surface installation can be
completed without a back box.
Note: After installation, camera must be
accessible from the local network (LAN).
To complete a surface mount
installation:
1. Attach the supplied mounting
template to the mounting surface.
2. Drill 4 holes, as marked on the
template, insert supplied anchors into
the holes.
3. Use the Torx bit or screwdriver to
loosen the set screw on the M71
mounting base and separate the base
from the camera.
4. Drill the conduit hole for the camera
cable, if routing the cable upwards.
If routing the cable sideways, remove
the plastic plug on the side of the
camera’s mounting base and do not
drill the conduit hole.
5. Use the round head machine screws
to secure the mounting base to the
prepared surface.
6. Feed the camera cable either through
the cut conduit hole or through the
side cable opening.
7. Re-attach the camera to the mounting
base and re-tighten the set screw to
secure.
8. Use the security Torx bit or
screwdriver (not provided) to loosen
four screws securing the dome
bubble to M71 camera. Set the dome
bubble aside.
9. Adjust the lens assembly for the
desired view and re-attach the dome
bubble.
