Safety Instructions

The warranty will be void in the event of damage caused by failure to observe-
these safety instructions! We do not accept liability for any consequential-
damage!
We do not accept liability for damage to property or personal injury caused
by improper handling or non-compliancewith the safety instructions! The
warranty will be void in such cases.
• The camera must not be modified or converted, as not only will the CE
approval become void but also the warranty.
• The camera's integrated infrared LEDs enable night vision. Please note that
coloured image reproduction changes into black and white monochrome
when increasing darkness activates the IR-LEDs. The brightness is detect-
ed by the camera using a photo sensor on the front.
• The camera should not be exposed to extreme temperatures, direct sun-
light, intense vibrations or heavy mechanical stress.
• If the camera is used with other devices e.g. a monitor, the operating
instructions and safetynotices for the connected devices must be
observed.
• The use of the surveillance camera system does not replace the personal
supervision of children, or people who require special assistance, but only
serves as a support to this supervision.
• After rapid changes in temperature, the camera requires some time to sta-
bilise, in order to adjust to the ambient temperature, before it can be used.
• Electronic devices are not toys and should be kept out of the reach of chil-
dren!
• Please contact a qualified person, if you are unsure about the safety and
correct use of the system components.
• Never leave the packaging material lying around unattended. Plastic-
foil/bags etc. can be dangerous playthings for children, there is a risk of suf-
focation.
• If you have reason to assume that safe operation is no longer possible, dis-
connect the device immediately and secure it against inadvertent operation.

Installation
• Find a suitable location for mounting the camera.
• There are holes for mounting on the mounting base provided. Hold the mounting base against
the desired mounting spot and mark the fixing holes.
• Drill the holes.
• Fasten the mounting base into place using appropriate installation material.
• Screw the camera on to the mounting base.
• It can be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible if:
- the device is visibly damaged,
- the device no longer works and
- if the device was stored under unfavourable conditions for a long period
of time
or
- it has been subjected to considerable stress in transit.
• In commercial institutions, the accident prevention regulations of the
Employer's Liability Insurance Association for Electrical Systems and
Operating Materials are to be observed.
• The camera is suitable for operation in outdoor areas (IP65).
• The power is supplied via 12 V/DC (a suitable wall plug transformer is avail-
able as an option).
• Ensure that all the electrical connections and connectioncables between
the different devices and any extension cables conform to the regulations
and comply with the operating instructions.
• Live components may be exposed, if the covers are opened or parts
removed (unless this can be done without tools). Connection points may
also be live. If the appliance needs to be opened for calibration, servicing,
repair or to replace parts or circuit boards, it must be disconnected first
from all sources of current . If servicing or internal repairs are necessary,
this must be carried out by a specialist who is familiar with the risks
involved and with the relevant regulations.
• Capacitors in the device may still be charged, even if the device has been
disconnected from all power supplies.
• When installing / mounting the appliance, make sure that the connection
cable is neither pinched nor damaged by sharp edges.
• Disconnect the power supply from the power socket if the unit is not to be
used for a while.
• Disconnect the camera from the power supply before cleaning.
• For safety reasons, disconnect the camera from the power supply during
thunderstorms.
• Never replace damaged mains cables yourself. In such cases, disconnect
the device from the mains and take it to a specialistworkshop.
• Never pour fluids out above electrical devices. You run the risk of causing
a fire or a fatal electric shock. If liquids enter the device, immediately dis-
connect it from the power supply, remove the plug from the mains and con-
sult an expert.
• Maintenance, adjustment and repair may only be carried out by a qualified
specialist or a specialised repair shop.
• If you have any questions, which are not answered in this manual, please
contact our technical service or an other specialist.
None of the connection cables must be bent nor squeezed. This can result in
malfunctions, short circuits and defects in the device.
Make sure that cables or wires are not damaged when drilling or bolting in
place.
Please note, you should choose a position for your camera that it is not
exposed to direct sunlight (this can cause glare). Further, the camera must be
protected from dust and vibration.
The camera's integrated infrared LEDs allow night vision. Please note that
coloured image reproduction changes into black and white monochrome
when increasing darkness activates the IR-LEDs. The brightness is detected
by the camera using a photo sensor on the front.
Ensure that the plug and socket of the camera's connection cable are not
exposed to damp. Plugs and sockets may only be used indoors. The camera
cable must (for installation in outdoor areas or in damp rooms) be placed so
it is led into a dry room.
