CCTV Installation
Here are the CCTV installation steps in a clear and structured format:
- Planning & Site Survey
– Identify surveillance areas, choose camera types (e.g., dome, bullet, PTZ), and determine camera locations for optimal coverage. - Select Equipment
– Choose cameras, DVR/NVR (Digital/Network Video Recorder), storage, cables (coaxial or Ethernet), power supplies, and monitors. - Install Cameras
– Mount cameras securely at planned positions using brackets, ensuring proper angles and coverage; drill holes for cabling if needed. - Run Cables
– Route power and video/data cables (BNC for analog, Ethernet for IP cameras) from cameras to DVR/NVR and power sources. - Install DVR/NVR & Connect System
– Set up the DVR/NVR in a secure, ventilated location; connect cameras, display monitors, power, and the internet (if remote viewing is required). - Configure the System
– Set up camera names, recording schedules, motion detection zones, alerts, and user permissions through the DVR/NVR software. - Test the System
– Verify video feed from all cameras, check playback and recording, test motion alerts, and ensure remote access (via app or web). - Final Adjustments & Handover
– Adjust camera angles if needed, secure all connections, label components, and train the user on system operation and maintenance.
