Installing the Roof Parapet and Pipe Mounts
Description
This chapter details how to install an AUTODOME camera to a Roof Parapet or to a Pipe
mount. Any differences to the installation between these two mounting systems are noted.
The VGA-ROOF-MOUNT is a stationary mount intended for rooftop parapet vertical walls. It is
made of light weight aluminum with a corrosion-resistant finish and is used for all Bosch
AUTODOME cameras up to a rated load of 29 kg (64 lb). This mount can be fitted to the inside
or outside of parapet walls and can swivel for ease of positioning and for servicing the camera.
Note that customers must purchase separately the VG4-A-9543 Pipe Mount to use on the end
of the VGA-ROOF-MOUNT.
The end of the Pipe Mount that is meant to terminate into an enclosure is intended to be field-
installed and shall be marked or provided with instructions that identify the equipment
necessary to maintain the environmental integrity of the enclosure. In order to maintain the
integrity of a Type 4X environment, the connected equipment must have a Type 4X
environmental rating. In order to maintain the integrity of a Type 4 environment, the
connected equipment must have a Type 4, Type 4X, Type 6, or Type 6P environmental rating.
Route Wires and Attach Connectors
Power wires must be routed to the left (front) side of the Power Supply Box through a
separate electrically earth-grounded conduit. All video, control, and alarm wires must be
routed through a second electrically earth-grounded conduit to the right side of the box.

Warning!
External interconnecting cables are to be installed in accordance to NEC, ANSI/NFPA70 (for
US application) and Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, CSA C22.1 (for CAN application) and in
accordance to local country codes for all other countries.
Branch circuit protection incorporating a 20 A, 2-pole Listed Circuit Breaker or Branch Rated
Fuses are required as part of the building installation. A readily accessible 2-pole disconnect
device with a contact separation of at least 3 mm (0.12 in.) must be incorporated.
There are two possible methods to route the video, control, and alarm wires:
Method One is to route the video, control, and alarm wires through the conduit fitting on the
right (front) side of the Power Supply Box and out to the AUTODOME Interface Board.
