how to install Hanwha Techwin SLA-2M6000Q

To install the SLA-2M6000Q, verify that your camera supports an M12-mount fixed lens and is compatible with 2MP sensor configurations. Power down the camera before beginning installation. Remove any existing lens or lens cap, then align the SLA-2M6000Q with the camera’s M12 threaded mount and carefully thread the lens into place until snug. Do not overtighten. Choose the appropriate focal length for your application (2.4 mm, 2.8 mm, 3.6 mm, or 6.0 mm) based on the desired field of view and scene coverage. Once mounted, restore power and configure camera settings to optimize exposure, white balance, and contrast for the scene. Note that this fixed lens does not provide manual focus; focus and framing are typically adjusted at the camera level or by selecting the optimal focal length for the installation. Finally, verify image quality across the scene, ensuring edges are sharp and lighting is balanced; adjust camera placement if necessary to achieve the intended surveillance coverage. Regularly inspect mounting hardware to ensure the lens remains securely attached in environments with vibration or tampering risks.
