The AXIS 215 PTZ can be mounted in 2 different ways:
• Surface mounted on a hard ceiling, in which case the unit is fastened directly to the
ceiling material
• Recessed in a drop ceiling, which involves cutting a hole in the ceiling and using
the supplied drop ceiling mount
Surface mounting
If the required cabling is also surface mounted, the cables should enter via the removable
cable inlet on the large plastic dome cover.
1. Use the supplied template to mark
out the positions for the screws that
will fasten the camera to the ceiling.
If required, drill holes for the
supplied mounting plugs.
2. Use the 2 supplied 4.2x38 screws to
fasten the camera to the ceiling.
3. Connect the camera to the network
using a shielded network cable.
4. Optionally connect external input/
output devices, e.g. alarm devices.
See page 16 for information on the
terminal connector pins.
5. Optionally connect an active speaker
and/or external microphone.
6. Connect the supplied indoor power
adapter to the power connector.
7. Using the supplied screwdriver,
attach the large dome cover, using
the 2 M4x10 resitorx screws.
