how to install AXIS TM1903 Privacy Cover

Installing the AXIS TM1903 Privacy Cover is quick and straightforward, designed to minimize downtime during deployment or privacy toggling. Follow these steps to ensure a proper fit and optimal privacy control:

• Power down the camera or ensure it is in a safe maintenance mode to prevent any unexpected operation during installation.
• Inspect the camera lens area and wipe away any dust or debris with a clean, dry microfiber cloth to provide a smooth contact surface.
• Align the TM1903 privacy cover with the camera housing, positioning the cover so that the privacy window lines up with the camera’s lens opening when engaged.
• Gently slip the cover onto the camera, pressing along the edges to seat it securely. Confirm that the cover sits flush against the housing and that there is no gap that could snag on adjacent hardware.
• Power the camera back on, then test privacy mode by placing the cover over the lens. Verify that the lens becomes concealed from view while the camera remains functional; remove the cover to restore full visibility and normal operation as needed.
