Installation

After choosing a camera, it’s time to mount it. First, check that the cam is working before you install it in the box! Most cameras can be mounted to the underside of the nest box roof with a few screws. If the cam is too large for the box, an “attic” or false roof can be constructed to house the camera. The power and video cables for the camera can be secured to the outside of the box with small clips or staples.
