Compact Color Camera Kits and

Single Gang Mountable Cameras

The VCAM-1 and VCAM-1IR are high resolution color composite video cameras. Their compact

size will allow mounting in even the smallest locations. The extreme temperature rating of this cam-

era, makes it ideal for mounting in outdoor locations in a water tight enclosure.

The VCAM-2 is a compact, high resolution color composite video camera mounted behind a stan-

dard single gang wall plate. The VCAM-2 is available in two finishes: Brushed Stainless Steel

(VCAM-2-SS) and Oil Rubbed Bronze (VCAM-2-BN). The extreme temperature rating and

Enhanced Weather Protection make this camera ideal for mounting

in outdoor locations.

The VCAM-1 is not compatible with IR illuminators and is a direct

replacement for the cameras included in the following Viking models: AES-2005, E-35, E-50,

E-65, E-75, K-1205, K-1705-3 and W-3005.

The VCAM-1IR has a day/night OLP (optical low pass) filter and is compatible with standard

840-850nM IR illuminators. The VCAM-1IR is the same size as the VCAM-1 allowing it to be

used in all of the above Viking products.

All cameras are equipped with Enhanced Weather Protection (EWP) for outdoor installations

where the unit is exposed to precipitation or condensation. The VCAM-1,VCAM-1IR and

VCAM-2 feature sealed connections, as well as an epoxy potted circuit board.

PART 15 LIMITATIONS

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction

manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the inter-

ference at his own expense.

A. Surface Mounting the VCAM-2

B. Mounting the VCAM-2 Faceplate

A Viking model VE-3x5 can be used to surface mount a VCAM-2 to a wall or post. Recommended mounting height to

bottom of VE-3x5 is 50” - 54”. Drill a small wire exit hole in wall. Pull wire through and seal hole around wire with putty

or caulking. Route wire into the VE-3x5 box, securely screw it to wall or post and seal hole in box around wire with

putty or caulking. Note: Conduit may also be used when surface mounting wire, but should not enter through the top

of the VE-3x5. When routing wiring from above, a drip loop is required. WARNING: Do NOT use a typical “wet loca-

tion box” as not all styles seal properly with the VCAM-2 faceplate.

After the Rough-In box or VE-3x5 is securely mounted, caulking between the box and rough opening is completed (if

required), wires are connected, and camera is tilted and rotated to the desired position (as shown in section G). Remove

paper liner from face plate gasket and press gasket to the back of the faceplate. Push the 1-1/4" 6-32 screws through face-

plate holes and small holes in gasket, the faceplate gasket should retain the screws. Position the camera mounting plate over

screws. Align screws with single gang box bosses and tighten face plate until gasket is fully collapsed. Included 1/4" thick

gasket will provide an adequate seal for most siding surfaces; however for rough surfaces (ie: brick, stucco, etc.) additional

caulking may be required.

C. Mounting the VCAM-1

IMPORTANT: Electronic devices are susceptible to lightning

and power station electrical surges from both the AC outlet and

the telephone line. It is recommended that a surge protector

be installed to protect against such surges.

Note: The recommended camera mounting height is

50.0” - 56.0” from the ground.

* Note: Up to 150 ft video cable run length can be achieved using CAT5E or CAT6 cable. Longer cable runs can be used if a passive or active video Balun transceiver is used on

each end of the cable. Generally, passive transceivers can achieve up to 750 ft cable runs where active transceivers can achieve up to 3000 ft runs depending on cable type, etc.

The type of video balun transceiver required is specific to your cable run length. For more information on video balun transceivers go to: www.northernvideo.com.

Caution: When routing CAT5E or CAT6 cable, maintain a minimum distance of 3 ft from any parallel high voltage wire (110 VAC) and a minimum of 2 ft from crossing any high volt-

age wire. For installations where RF noise is expected (commercial applications) or wire runs are near high voltage (110 VAC) wires, a shielded video cable such as RG6 is recom-

mended.

E. Adjusting the Camera

The camera can be tilted and rotated to your desired position. A portable

service (test) monitor can be used to determine the correct viewing

angle during installation.

Important: To prevent the edge of the faceplate from being viewed in

the video image, do not rotate the camera beyond 30 degrees or tilt

beyond 20 degrees.

** Note: The maximum camera power supply wire run length is 250 ft of 24 gauge wire (CAT 5/6), longer runs are possible by doubling pairs or increasing the wire gauge.

*** Note: RG59 or RG6 with solid center conductor and 95% bare copper braid shield.
