entrance areas, surveillance of underground car parks).
The camera is suitable for operation in outdoor areas (IP65). The voltage is supplied via 12 V/DC
(a suitable power transformer is available as an option).

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.

Safety Instructions

The warranty will be void in the event of damage caused by failure to obser-
ve these safety instructions! We do not assume any liability for any
consequential damage!
We do not assume any liability for material and personal damage caused by
improper use or non-compliance with 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 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 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 device is used with other devices e.g. a monitor, the operating instruc-
tions and safety notices for the connected devices must be followed.
• 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 surrounding 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.
• It can be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible if:

Installation

• Find a suitable location for mounting the camera.
- the device shows visible signs of damage,
- the device no longer functions 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 voltage is supplied via 12 V/DC (suitable power transformer is available
as an option).
• Ensure that all the electric connections and connection cables between the
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 first be disconnected
from all sources of current. If servicing or internal repairs are necessary,
these 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 camera from the power supply, if the camera is not used for
longer periods of time.
• 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 an event, discon-
nect the appliance from the mains and take it to a specialist workshop.
• 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 specialist repair shop.
• If you have any questions, which are not answered in this manual, please
contact our technical service or another 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 into
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.
