Ceiling Mount

and 

Wall Mount

.

Ceiling Mount

1.  Use the mounting base to make 3 marks on the wall for screw anchors.

5.  Put on the mounting cover. To fit the installation environment, you can 

cut the parts indicated by arrows to make an opening for wires and 
cables.

2.  Drill the marks and insert 3 screw anchors.

3.  Attach the mounting base with the PTZ / PT camera with 3 short 

screws.

4.  Fix the mounting base (now with the PTZ / PT camera attached) to the 

wall with 3 long screws.

Wall

You may mount GV-PTZ010D / GV-PT110D camera on the wall, with or 

without the mounting cover.

Wall Mount

1.  Take the wall mount bracket and make 2 marks on the wall for screw 

anchors.

5. 

Without Mounting Cover

•  Attach the wall mount bracket with the PTZ / PT camera using 3 

washers and 3 round screws.

With Mounting Cover

•  To install mounting cover, attach the mounting base to the camera 

and then put on the mounting cover. See steps 3 and 5 in the 

Ceiling Mount 

section.

•  Attach the wall mount bracket with the PTZ / PT camera using 3 

round screws.

2.  Drill the marks and insert 2 screw anchors.

3.  Insert the long screws and leave enough distance (approximately 2 

mm) to hang the wall mount bracket later.
