Gland type
If required, remove the camera and tray to access the holes in the base of the housing:
loosen the two screws holding the camera tray in the housing.
Slide the tray backwards and remove from the housing.
Remove the two dome plugs located at the bottom the housing.
Screw the two 3/8-in NPT fittings into the foot of the housing.
Feed the power cable through one of the glands.
Feed the ethernet/video cable through the second cable gland.
To fit the cables through the NPT fitting in the housing:
Ethernet cable: remove the RJ-45 connector and then crimp the connector back on the
cable once it is pulled through the gland. Crimp in accordance with the connector
manufacturer's recommendations (the camera connector is Auto MDIX compliant).
Video cable: remove the BNC connector and then crimp the connector back on the cable
once it is pulled through the gland.
Feed any audio and alarm cables through the second gland as required.
Pull any excess wire out of the housing
Apply a seal around the cables in their glands. Use RTV or an equivalent seal (a split
rubber sleeve may also be used).
Tighten the cable glands. The tightening force required is approximately 1 to 1.5 turns
past the point where the gland starts to grip the wire. Failure to correctly tighten the
glands could result in water ingress.
Slightly tilt the camera/lens tray assembly and slide it in under the rail that is located
under the heater on the right side of the housing.
Lower the tray so that the holes at the side fit over the two screws of the housing.
Slide the entire assembly forward approximately 5 mm (0.2 in.) from the front of the
window.
Tighten the two screws to lock the tray in place.
