INSTALLATION
When planning the installation location, consider the following points:
• The camera is waterproof, and appropriate for above decks mounting.
• When mounting the camera in a ball-down position, ensure that the camera
is installed with adequate drainage so that standing water does not collect
in the base.
• Ensure the camera is installed in a location that will allow it to be accessed
for regular periodic cleaning (fresh-water rinse), inspection of mounting
point integrity and mechanical soundness, and preventative maintenance.
• The underside (inside) of the compartment or deck on to which the camera
is mounted must be weather-tight. You must ensure protection from water
ingress to cables and connections.
• The mounting surface must be horizontal.
• Fixings are supplied for a mounting surface up to X mm (X in) thick. A
thicker surface will require the installer to provide alternative fixings.
• The camera should be mounted as high as practical, but without interfering
with any radar, navigational or communications electronics.
• Choose a location that will provide the most unobstructed view in all
directions.
• Select a location for the camera that is at least X m (X in.) from any magnetic
compass.
• Select a location that is at least X m (X ft) from devices that may cause
interference, such as motors, generators and radio transmitters / receivers.
