Installation Instructions

1. Locate the network drop above the ceiling either being a male Ethernet end (service loop) or a biscuit jack. This will have been ran back to the POE switch. If the switch does not have POE, a POE injector will need to be installed at the network closet.
2. Using the T20 bit, remove the dome from the 3235. Remove protective foam and remove the camera from the mounting plate.
3. Determine the mount location of the 3235. If mounting to dry wall, use a stud finder, ensure the mount location is free of being located on a stud. Using a pencil, mark either two or four of the holes for the mount plate. Using a 3/16" drill bit, drill the marked locations and install anchors and attach the mount plate. Using a hole saw or paddle bit, cut a hole centered among the wall plate where cables will pass through.
4. If mounting to drop ceiling, determine where the camera will be located on the tile. Ensure that there will be clearance on the tile to secure the dome in place. Using two toggle bolts, secure the mount plate. Using a 1" paddle bit, drill a hole centered among the wall plate where cables will pass through.
5. After securing the mount plate, cut two lengths of 22/2 long enough to reach the microphone location. One will be for audio. One will be for power
6. Using glow rods or fish tape, run the 22/2 lines and the Ethernet cables through the wall or ceiling.
7. Connect the network drop into the Ethernet port on the Axis P3245. When connected, activity will be visible on the link lights. If no link lights appear, ensure that POE is enabled on the POE switch and that the network drop is plugged in. After approximately one minute, all three LEDs should be green. If not, troubleshoot connections.
