Operatinginstructions

1. Introduction

Read through these operating instructions fully and carefully. The operating instructions belong to this product and contain important points concerning bringing the appliance into service and its operation.

Always pay attention to all safety instructions. Should you have any questions or be unsure about operating the appliance ask a specialist. Keep these instructions in a safe place and should the need arise pass them on to a third party.

2. Properuse

The App Camera is to be used for the surveillance through video pictures and sound.

The operation of the camera and viewing of the images is carried out through an App (App for iPhone and Android is available free of charge, not suitable for Windows and Blackberry smartphones) on a smartphone or tablet PC (mobile device). The local connection is via a WiFi router. If the local network is connected to the internet then t he viewing through the App is possible via internet (a minimum upload speed or bandwidth of 1000 Kbps is required, >2000Kbps recommended). Thesystem is able to send an Email message to report motion detection.

Images from multiple cameras can be viewed on each mobile device. Up to three users can access the camera concurrently.

The plug and play technology of the AC20 automatically establishes a direct and secure connection between the mobile device and the camera. It is not necessary to setup an Paddressandaccess viabrowserisnotpossible. Details about the compatibility and availability of the App are available at www.indexa.de.

Video and sound can be recorded on a microSDHC card (max. 32 GB, not included) fitted in the camera. Recording can be started manually, automaticallythroughmotiondetectionorautomaticallyaccordingtoapre-set schedule.Eachrecordingissavedwithtimeanddateonthememorycard.Ifthe memory card is full, the oldest data are automatically overwritten (ring memory). The recordings can be viewed via App on a mobile device, or by puttingthecardintoareaderattachedtoaPCwithaviewerprogramme.

The camera is powered through the supplied mains adapter connected to a 230VAC,50Hzmainssupply.

If there is sufficient light a colour picture will be transmitted. At low ambient light levels the integrated Infrared LEDs are automatically switched on. In this case the immediate area (max. 4 m) will be illuminated and the video picture switchestoblackandwhitemodeforimprovedlightsensitivity.

If the surveillance is specifically required in dark environment, then additional lightings should be installed.

6. Safetyinstructions

The following instructions are provided for your safety and satisfaction during operation of the device. Note that non-observance of these safety instructions results in significant risks of accident.

Danger! If this point is not heeded life and health is endangered and it puts property at risk of damage.

- Do not leave small children unsupervised with the device, packaging material or small parts. Otherwise there is a risk of fatal injury due to choking or suffocation.

- Do not damage any gas, electricity, water or telecommunication lines during drilling and fixing work. Otherwise there are dangers of fire, personal and fatal injury.

- Treat the cables carefully. Lay these so that they cannot be damaged and do not present any tripping hazard. Otherwise there are dangers of fire, personal and fatal injury.

- If you use the device for monitoring babies or small children ensure that the camera and cable are out of reach of children. Otherwise there is a risk to life and limb!

- Do not pull the cables over sharp edges and do not crush or crimp them elsewhere. Otherwise there are dangers of fire, personal and fatal injury.

- Prevent the components from coming into contact with moisture and do not submerge in water. Otherwise there is a danger of fatal injury.

- Only operate the device from the supplied power supply. Before connecting the power supply to the mains, ensure that the mains current complies with 230 V \~, 50 Hz and is fitted with a fuse according to regulations. Otherwise there are dangers of fire and fatal injury.

- Protect the equipment and the cables against strong magnetic or electrical fields and against strong mechanical loads and vibrations.

- Do not place the equipment near fire, heat or in areas of high temperature.

- Only use the equipment with the supplied original parts or original accessories.

  • Do not connect any damaged device (e.g. damage in transit). Repairs to the equipment must only be performed by specialists.
  • Remove the mains adapter from the mains outlet when the device is not required for a longer time.

7. Location

Before mounting the camera check the wireless reception from the desired location. Check the operation of the camera and the connection in the proposed location.

Observe the following points:

  • Position the camera so that no direct light or sunshine falls on the lens otherwise the picture may become overexposed. Check the camera image before mounting. Provisionally connect and commission the device and hold the camera in the desired position. If necessary, change the camera position until you have found the desired view.
  • Select the distance between the camera and the subject according to the level of detail desired.
  • The camera has infrared illumination for the close range. This is activated by the daylight sensor. You can improve the quality of the image at night by using additional illumination. The camera automatically switches to black and white in low light conditions and in artificial light.
  • Ensure that there is a possible cable routing at the installation location.
  • If you want to prevent unauthorised access to the camera or memory card, please ensure that the camera is installed out of reach.
  • For night time viewing do not point the camera through window glass as the infrared light will be reflected into the image.
  • When using WiFi:

  • Ensure that the camera has a good WiFi connection with the WiFi router.
    The maximum range of the WiFi is dependent on the environment and on the WiFi router. The transmission range is reduced through walls and floors (particularly those with steel reinforcement). Metal surfaces eg. refridgereators, shelving vapour-coated glass surfaces or mirrors will block the wireless transmission.
    The WiFitransmission can also be affected by strong electric fields and other wireless equipment. Ensure an adequate distance of the camera and receiver to microwave ovens, cordless phones, mobile phones, devices using the same or similar frequency, electric motors and high voltagedevicesorpowercables.

  • If the WLAN connection is poor, change the position of the camera or theWLANrouterorusedaWLANrepeater.

11. Important notes on the recording function and the sending of emails

The camera has a motion detection function that can trigger a recording and possibly send an email. This function, as well as the automatic recording according to a schedule, requires the use of a formatted micro-SD card. If no micro-SD card is inserted, automatic recordings are not possible.

  • If a micro-SD card is inserted, the automatic recording function is available. As soon as this software recognises apixel change in the image (= motion detection) when the motion detection and automatic recording functions are activated (see Chapter 12.2.7), a59-second video and audio recording will be initiated and saved on the micro-SD card (the audio will always berecorded, even if the sound is switched off). The sensitivity of the detection of pixel changes in images can be adjusted (see Chapter 12.2.7).
  • After motion detection has been activated, an email with 1 to 10 images can besenttouptofouremailaddresses(seeChapter12.2.6).
  • If the memory card is full, the oldest data are automatically overwritten (ringmemory).
  • Rather than viewing the recordings via the app, you can also remove the micro-SD card and viewthe recordings on your PC(providing you have an appropriatevideoviewer/playerinstalled).

■ If motion is detected, a 59-second recording will automatically be saved onthemicro-SDcard:
