Installation Instructions

Drop Ceiling Mount

• WARNING
• The combined weight of the camera and mounting bracket is approximately 1.7 kg (3.7 lb.).

Make sure that the ceiling material is strong enough to support this weight.

• NOTICE
• The ceiling tile should be 5–60mm (0.2–2.4in.) thick.

1. Remove the ceiling tile in which the drop ceiling mount is to be fitted.
2. Drill a 7 mm (9/32 in) hole in the ceiling tile.
3. Remove the tripod screw from the mounting bracket.
4. Attach the short end of the threaded rod to the camera and tighten.
5. Assemble the camera, ceiling tile and the mounting bracket and tighten the nut.
6. Route and connect all cables to the camera.
7. Connect the 4 Pin XLR-M end of the MX202i to the 4 pin XLR-M adapter. Next, run that mic cable to the back of the V59 camera XLR-F input 2 (L).
8. Connect the power supply to a mains power outlet (100–240 VAC).
9. Install the ceiling tile with the camera mounted on it

Wall Mount

1. Use a stud finder to locate wall studs, and determine proper placement for the L bracket. Make a mark for the 3 screw holes on the short end of the L bracket, and the area to fish the cables. (We will be using 3/16" wall screws and anchors here).
2. Drill these holes for the anchors, and use a walldozer to drill a hole to fish the cables.
3. Place the anchors, screw the bracket down, and fish our cables (power, network, MX202 XLR-M end, possible 22/2 for I/O, and possible HDMI cables) down the ceiling through the hole under our bracket.
4. Place the V59 onto the bracket, and secure it with the tripod screw from underneath.
5. Route and connect all cables to the camera (network, audio, power, possible HDMI, possible I/O cable).
6. Connect the 4 Pin XLR-M end of the MX202i to the 4 pin XLR-M adapter. Next, run that mic cable to the back of the V59 camera XLR-F input 2 (L).

Connecting and Mounting the Microphone

1. Using the ½” paddle bit, drill a hole into the center of the single gang plate and a hole into the desired location for the microphone on your drop ceiling tile. Then secure this single gang plate to the desired location of the microphone on your drop ceiling tile using a pair of toggle bolts. Repeat this process for 2 microphones.

   

2. Run your MX202i through the ½” hole in the ceiling tile and single gang plate. Use the rubber stopper to plug the ½” hole in the single gang plate.
3. Lastly, adjust the length of the cable of the microphone to your desired length, hiding the remainder in the ceiling. Attach the windscreen to the MX202i.
