how to install AXIS TQ3101-E

• Plan the installation: Begin by selecting a secure ceiling anchor point with an adequate load rating for your camera and accessories. Consider sightlines and lighting to ensure the camera field of view covers intended zones such as entrances, aisles, or reception areas. Map out cable routes so they are discreet yet accessible for maintenance.
• Prepare the pendant kit: Unpack the AXIS TQ3101-E and confirm all components are present, including mounting plates, connectors, brackets, and any optional cable management accessories. Inspect components for shipping damage and ensure you have the tools required for installation.
• Mount the ceiling bracket: Install the ceiling bracket securely with appropriate anchors or screws for the ceiling type. Use a level to guarantee a straight orientation, which will facilitate accurate camera alignment and reduce the need for rework later.
• Route and conceal cables: Thread network and power cables through the pendant’s internal channels or protective conduits. Use provided grommets or cable clamps to protect cables from abrasion and to minimize exposure on the ceiling, preserving a clean, professional look.
• Attach the camera and adjust alignment: Mount the camera to the designated interface on the pendant kit. Connect the camera to power and the network, then carefully adjust tilt, pan, and rotation to achieve the required coverage. Lock the adjustment mechanisms securely to prevent drift over time.
• Calibration and testing: Power up the camera, verify the video feed, and confirm live monitoring through Axis management software. Perform a field-of-view check in multiple lighting conditions and at different times of day, then fine-tune positioning if necessary to ensure critical areas are captured with the desired resolution and angle.
