How do I mount my camera to the wall or ceiling?

Note: It is suggested that you configure the camera before mounting.

Step 1: Align the mounting base where you want to position the camera and use a pencil to mark the holes.

Step 2: Depending on the material of the wall or ceiling, use proper tools to drill two holes or screws where you marked. If the wall is made out of concrete, drill the holes first, insert the plastic anchors and then the screws.
Note: The space between the camera and the screw heads should be about 3mm.

Step 3: Place the mounting base over the screw that is mounted on the wall. Make sure to fit the screw-heads over the big holes and slide it downward to lock firmly. Lightly pull the base forward to make sure that it is locked.
