3) Install ZC Series Dome Camera
Note: Before installing the ZC series camera into the housing,
remove its front dome cover, plastic retaining ring and video
cable. Only the base of the camera will be installed into the
housing.
a) Place the camera base into the housing, making sure that the 4
power and video wires feed through the hole in the camera base.
b) Fasten the camera to the housing base.
For 2-4mm, 3-6mm and 4-9mm models: Use the supplied #6 X 1/2"
machine screws and spacers.
For 5-50mm models: Use the supplied #6 X 5/16" machine screws.
Spacers should not be used with this model.
c) Make the 4 wiring connections in accordance with the instructions
below.
4) Connect Power
Important: Make wiring connections only after it has been
determined that power has been disconnected. Failure to do
so could lead to permanent damage to the camera and void
the warranty. The ZC series cameras will accept either 12 Volts DC
or 24 Volts AC. If using 12VDC, be sure to determine the polarity
before connection. The Red wire connects to 12VDC (+) Positive ter-
minal and the Black wire connects to the Ground terminal. When using
12VDC, use only a regulated power supply with a minimum 300mA out-
put, (model C12DCR recommended). For 24VAC input, connect the
Red and Black wires to the 2 power input terminals.
5) Connect Video
Connect the White wire to the Video-Out Terminal and the Green wire
to the Ground Terminal as shown in Figure 1. Note: A BNC con-
nector (included) can be crimped on to the white and green
video signal wires using the supplied butt connectors. It is rec-
ommended these connections be crimped with a crimping tool
and covered with shrink tubing.

Note: If necessary, needle nose pliers can be used to make power and
video connections.
Note: Special Focusing Instructions when using 5-50mm dome.
If the 5-50mm lens is set to a focal length of 20mm or greater, the dome
cover must be held in front of the lens while focusing to obtain proper
focus.
6) Install the Desiccant Pack
After the camera has been installed, attach the supplied desiccant pack
to the camera. Remove the desiccant pack from its storage bag.
Remove plastic from the double-sided tape and attach to the camera
bracket as shown in Figure 1. The desiccant pack is used to absorb any
moisture trapped inside the dome during installation. To avoid excessive
moisture buildup, it is recommended that the camera not be installed in
rainy or excessively damp conditions. The desiccant pack can be
replaced if condensation develops inside the housing.
7) Re-Install Dome Cover
Place the dome cover on the housing base. Push the cover lightly onto
the base and tighten the 3 tamper resistant screws until the cover seals
tight against the housing base. Caution: Do Not Over Tighten!

The ZC-OH2 housing is supplied with a clear dome with painted slot as the
standard. In the event the dome is scratched or damaged or if a different
dome is required (tinted, gold or chrome), the dome can be replaced.
Remove the 4 retaining screws and washers on the inside of the dome
cover and remove the aluminum retaining ring. The dome can then be
removed. Due to a tight seal, some pressure may be required to the top of
the dome to break the seal. After installing the new dome, replace the
retaining ring and tighten the 4 screws and washers until the retaining ring is
flush with the adjacent surface.
