How to install Axis Pendant Kit for the AXIS Q60-series and AXIS P55-series PTZ Network Cameras
- Step 1: Inspect the installation site. Confirm that the ceiling structure can support the combined weight of the pendant kit and the AXIS PTZ camera. Verify electrical access for power and data cables and prepare a clean pathway to the camera location.
- Step 2: Position and secure the ceiling anchor or mounting bracket as specified by the installation guidelines. Use the supplied screws and fasteners, ensuring the anchor is level to prevent camera misalignment.
- Step 3: Attach the pendant arm to the ceiling mount, making sure it is firmly secured and aligned to match the intended camera orientation. Double-check that the arm offers the correct drop length for the desired field of view before tightening.
- Step 4: Route power and data cables through the pendant’s internal channels and grommets. Keep cables neat and protected, exiting at the designated points to minimize strain on connectors and to facilitate future maintenance.
- Step 5: Attach the camera mounting plate to the pendant arm. Align the camera’s mounting pattern with the plate, then tighten the fasteners to the recommended torque to avoid over-tightening, which can damage components.
- Step 6: Mount the AXIS Q60-series or AXIS P55-series PTZ camera onto the mounting plate. Connect network and power cables, then perform a basic alignment to set the camera’s initial position, pan, and tilt. Verify that the image framing is correct and that the camera remains stable after any minor adjustments.
- Step 7: Tidy up cabling with ties and re-check all screws and connections. Power up the system and confirm that the camera communicates correctly with the network, preserving the integrity of video streams and camera controls.
