Philips VCM8175/00T - Manual (Page 7)

Sound
If required, the microphone incorporated in the camera, can be
switched off, (fig. A-13).
If an intercom box is included in the camera line, the sound of camera
and intercom box will be reproduced by the monitor.
Position
Rrst you need to determine where the camera is to be installed. The
best results are obtained when the camera looks a little downwards and
not into a bright source of light.
• Hold the camera in your hand at the spot where you want to install
it and check on the monitor whether the camera does actually cover
the required area from that spot.
• Fasten the mounting bracket to the ceiling, the wall, or another
even and firm surface by means of the supplied screws and plugs.
• Tighten the knob (fig. A-3) of the ball-and-socket joint.
• Fasten the camera to the bracket by screwing the mounting hole in
the back or bottom of the camera (fig. A-1) onto the threaded end
(fig. A-2).
• Loosen the knob of the ball-and-socket joint (fig. A-3) and, if neces­
sary, the screw (fig. A-4) on the mounting bracket and direct the
camera accurately at the object or area you want to have on screen.
• The knob and screw can be tightened again when the camera is in
the required position.
Remark: The camera can also be mounted on any other camera tripod
standardly provided with a W 20 UNC thread.
Protective cover
For outdoor use a protective cover (fig. A-10) (optional) has to be used
to protect the camera from rain and snow.
Video out
Connect the system cable to the output of the camera (fig. A-12).
