Required Parts And Tools

  • Axis P3245-LV
  • 3.5mm (Male to Male) Audio Cable
  • Louroe Verifact D Microphone
  • 1 Mud ring if mounting to drywall, Datacom box if mounting to hard surface (ex. Cinderblock)
  • S2 TT20 Torx security bit
  • Wire Stripper
  • Anchors and Screws (If wall mounted) (3/16")
  • Toggle bolts (If mounting to drop ceiling tile) (3/16")
  • 1/2" paddle bit
  • 3.5mm Audio Cable
  • Toggle Bolts for mic mount
  • Drill bit and drill
  • Phillips head drill bit or Phillips head screwdriver
  • Small Flat head screwdriver (#3)
  • Hole Saw (2")
  • B Connectors
  • Stud Finder
  • Cat5/6 Patch Cable (7ft-15ft recommended)
  • Shielded Stranded 22/2 + ground Wire
  • Fish Tape or Glow Rods

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 3245. Remove protective foam and remove the camera from the mounting plate.
  3. Determine the mount location of the 3245. 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. 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.


Connecting the Microphone

  1. Cut two similar lengths of 22/2. One will be for audio. One will be for power
  2. Cut a hole into the drywall, large enough to fit the mud ring into it securely. Feed one end of the the 22/2 audio cables and patch cable through the hole. (If mounting on a hard surface, attached Datacom box to the wall). Connect the 22/2 cables to the Verifact-D phoenix terminal as follows; Audio - Red to B, Black to C, Power - Red to A, Black to C (See Picture).
  3. Strip the jacket off the 22/2, revealing the red, black, and common (bare wire) on both sides of the cable. Remove the string and plastic casings covering the red and black cables. Strip the red and black jackets off the wire exposing the copper. Cut copper evenly on both ends (See picture)

  4. Connect the other ends of the 22/2 cables to the P3245 camera. The connections will be as follows; Audio - Black to 1, Red to 3 on audio terminal block, Power - Black to 1, Red to 2 on I/O terminal block
  5. Place the dome over on the camera. Using the T20 bit, tighten the dome cover in place.
  6. Align Verifact-D with mud ring or Datacom box and screw in securely.
