ple, street lighting or starlight, moonlight, etc.) or leave some lighting on in the area
where the camera is installed.

phone lines.

4.2
Installation (Indoor/Outdoor)
The camera includes all necessary components for ceiling mounting and wall
mounting. For full instructions on each type of mounting, see 4.2.1
or 4.2.2
.
Before installing the camera, decide whether to run the cables through the
wall / ceiling (drilling required) or along the wall / ceiling. If you run the cables
along the wall / ceiling, you must run the cable through the cable notch on the
dome camera base. This will keep the dome camera base flush to the ceiling
when mounted.
