Camera orientation

The camera can be mounted in 2 orientations, informally known as “Ball-up” (upright) and “Ball-down” (upside down).

Camera orientationBall-down

  • When the camera is mounted ball-up (upright), the camera is mounted on top of the mounting surface.

  • When the camera is mounted ball-down (upside down), the camera is mounted below the mounting surface.

The default video image orientation is for the ball-up (upright) configuration. If the camera is to be mounted in the ball-down (upside down) configuration, the video image must be rotated. To rotate the video image, you must either:

  • Use the camera’s Web browser user interface to set the appropriate option. For further information, refer to: Camera operation via Web browser

  • Use an ONVIF-supported MFD / chartplotter video application to set the appropriate option. For further information, refer to the documentation which accompanies your display.
