MSDAU INSTALLATION
An MSDAU may be purchased with or without a top-mounted PTZ camera. It also
provides for three methods for mounting – tripod, wall corner or pole.
For tripod mounting, open the tripod legs sufficient for stability. Place the MSDAU
mount on top of the tripod and start the tripod screw into the mount socket. Try to align
the mount in the approximate center of the tripod head. Tighten the tripod screw by
hand using the handle under the screw. Adjust the tripod legs for length and spread for
the required MSDAU/camera height and for good stability.
A tripod-mounted MSDAU with Dahua 50230 camera is shown below. Note that the
tripod legs may be extended and spread from vertical to fully horizontal to accommodate
a wide range of height and stability requirements. However, if the legs are spread too
far, then the leg tips cannot grip the ground which may result in undesired spread.
