guarantee pan/tilt performance, and take measures to
prevent it from falling.
• Be sure to provide safety measures against falling
when you mount the camera.
• Do not grasp the camera head when carrying the
camera.
• Do not turn the camera head by hand. Doing so may
result in a camera malfunction.

Attaching the camera to a tripod

Screw the tripod screw into a tripod screw hole on the
bottom of the camera.
The tripod should be placed on a level surface, and
tighten the screw firmly by hand.
The tripod screw should be compliant with the following
standards.

1/4 -20UNC

4 = 4.5 mm to 7 mm
4 = 0.18 to 0.27 inches

tilted surface, make sure that the angle is less than 15
degrees to ensure the camera can pan/tilt properly.

Caution
• When you want the camera to be mounted at a high
spot, such as on a ceiling, have a professional
contractor do the job.
• When you mount the camera at a high spot, make
sure the attachment materials to which the camera
will be mounted and the fittings (except for
accessories) are capable of supporting a weight of 60
kg or greater and that the installation is done
properly. If the installation is not strong enough, the
camera may fall, resulting in a serious injury.
• As a fall prevention measure, be sure to attach the
supplied wire rope to the camera securely.
• When you mount the camera at a high spot, inspect
the installation once a year for any loosened parts. 3 Attach the ceiling bracket (A) to the bottom
