Warnings and Safeguards
Prior to installation and use of this product, please observe the following
warnings
1. Installation and servicing should be done by qualified personnel, and all
work done should conform to local codes.
2. Using replacement parts or accessories other than Wren may invalidate
the warranty.
3. Use only Wren-approved replacement parts or supplied accessories.
Failure to comply may invalidate remaining warranty period.
4. This unit is designed to operate on either IEEE 802.3af POE or 12VDC
power. Do not bring any other voltages into the housing.
5. Make sure that the installation method is capable of supporting three (3)
times the weight of the SDR6-IP housing and enclosed contents.
6. Verify proper installation of cabling to support camera power and
communication requirements for fixed camera applications.
Preparation
1. Carefully unpack box and verify that all components listed are included
[Figure 1].
2. Remove the Dome and Trim Ring Assy from the upper housing by
turning the assembly counter-clockwise, taking care that dome does not
become scratched or damaged.

3. Remove ceiling tile from desired mounting location and use the
support plate as a template to cut a hole into the ceiling tile. Ensure
that the hole is in the center of the tile.
4. Run Cat5 (and, optionally, 12VDC leads) to the location where the
assembly is to be installed.
NOTE
POE power must be IEEE 802.3af compliant. Optional 12VDC power
must be from a regulated power source and of the correct polarity
(center positive). (See Master Power Supply Instructions for
wiring/installation instructions.)
Installation
1. Place upper housing through hole from underneath ceiling tile. Place support
plate behind housing. Using Philips-head screwdriver, turn the locking bolts
clock-wise in order to spin the anchor clips into locking position (outward).
2. The anchor clips will twist over the support plate. Screw the anchor clips down until the upper housing is snug.
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.
3. Connect the Cat5 cable to the RJ45 jack on top of the upper housing assembly. If 12VDC direct power is required,
attach the included DC barrel connector pigtail to the power leads using the provided butt connectors, and
connect it to the barrel connector lead on the unit. [Figure 2]
TIP
To use Butt Connectors, twist the leads together, place joined leads into wide end of connector, crimp with pliers.
WARNING!
Ensure properly polarity (center positive) when connecting 12VDC. Applying incorrect voltage or polarity will invalidate warranty.
4. The three
(3)
piece bracket is assembled and installed in the housing at the factory. Bracket need not be removed
from the housing for camera installation.
5. Attach the camera to the bracket using the 1/4-20 x 3/8’’ wing screw provided.
6. Connect power and video leads from the encoder assembly to the camera. Consult camera instructions for polarity
requirements. [Figure 2]
7. Replace Ceiling Tile (with housing installed) into the opening from which it was removed.
8. Make final pan and adjustments to achieve the desired shot and hand tighten knurled knobs to secure. To make
adjustments to the lens settings, loosen the lens locking screws, adjust focal length and focus, and retighten the
lens locking screws.
NOTE
DO NOT use liquid cleaners (except for those that are specifically designed for optical-grade acrylic) on the Dome as they may degrade the
optical quality.
Troubleshooting
1. Software cannot connect to SDR6-IP, and no LED’s are lit:
a. Verify proper insertion of Ethernet cable at both ends of cable (if using POE). If LED’s are still not lit,
12VDC (center pin positive) can be connected to the optional power input to verify operation of the
SDR6-IP.
b. Verify proper voltage and polarity (if using direct power).
2. Software cannot connect to SDR6-IP, but some LED’s are lit:
a. Red LED indicates that the unit is getting power, and should be solid red. Green LED indicates network
status and should be blinking consistently if everything is working normally.
b. If red LED is on and green LED is not flashing, check Ethernet connections on both ends.

3. Software can attach to SDR6-IP, but no video is present:
a. Use a voltmeter to check voltage on camera cable leads to be sure they read 12V.
b. Check video output from the camera with a separate monitor.
c. Ensure that ‘‘MiniGlobe’’ device is selected for the subject IP address in Wren VMS under Edit Camera.
d. If viewing through Internet Explorer (‘‘IE’’), ensure that the ActiveX control has been installed (see
Windows and/or IE instructions for details on permitting the installation of ActiveX controls).
4. See also: Troubleshooting section in Wren VMS instructions.
