Installation Instructions

Disassemble Camera

1. Using the T20 bit , remove the dome from the M5525
2. Remove the yellow packing foam.
3. Using the T20 bit, remove the camera from the mounting plate

Recessed Mount 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.

   Note: If the switch does not have POE, a POE injector will need to be installed at the network closet.

2. Using the instructions included in the Axis T94P01L box, use the razor to cut a hole into the drop ceiling tile, and assemble the holding bracket for the camera.
3. Mount bracket to drop ceiling.

   

   Note: The 22/12 pigtail and network cable should already be pre-docked in the camera. If not, you'll have to open the M5525, run the cat 5 cable and pigtail through the mounting bracket and plug it in. (If the camera has both the pigtail and the network cable, simply run them through the bracket above the ceiling.)

4. Use the screws included with the mounting bracket to affix the M5525 to the recessed mount.
5. Reattach the dome. Then affix the mounting disc to cover the ceiling tile.
6. Cut 2 lengths of 22/2 cable long enough to go from the M5525 pigtail to the STM-1. One is for audio; the other is to power the STM-1.
7. Strip the jacket and wire shielding about 1/2" to expose the wires.
   • Connect the cable for power to the pigtail with B-connectors (Red to red, Black to black). Connect the cable for audio (red to yellow; black to white).

Drop Ceiling Mounting Instructions

1. Locate the network drop above the ceiling either being a male Ethernet end (service loop) or a biscuit jack.

   Note: 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. Make marks on the ceiling tile where the toggle bolts will go, and a place from where our cables will be run.
3. Carefully use a blade to cut a hole in the tile to run cables.

   Note: The 22/12 pigtail and network cable should already be pre-docked in the camera. If not, you'll have to open the M5525, run the cat 5 cable and pigtail through the mounting bracket and plug it in (If the camera has both the pigtail and the network cable, simply run them both through the tile.).

4. Use the toggle bolts to secure the camera to the ceiling tile.
5. Reattach the camera dome.
6. Cut 2 lengths of 22/2 cable long enough to go from the M5525 pigtail to the microphone. One will be foe audio. One will be for power
7. Strip the jacket and wire shielding about 1/2" to expose the wires.
   • Connect the cable for power (Red to red, Black to black). Connect the cable for audio (red to yellow; black to white).

Drywall / Hard Ceiling Mounting Instructions

1. Using a stud finder, scan the mount location to ensure the camera is not mounted on a stud.
2. Using a pencil, mark the four holes for the mount plate.
3. Using a 3/16" drill bit, drill the marked locations and
4. Install anchors and attach the mount plate using screws and washers.

   

5. Using a hole saw or paddle bit, cut a hole centered in the wall plate where cables will pass through.

   

6. Cut two lengths of 22/2 long enough to reach the mounting location of the microphone.One will be foe audio. One will be for power
   • Connect the cable for power (Red to red, Black to black). Connect the cable for audio (red to yellow; black to white).
7. Using glow rods or fish tape, fish the network drop or patch cable in addition to the two sections of 22/2 audio cable through the drywall.
8. Attach the camera the the mount plate
