Dear Customer,
The following safety information and hazard notes are not only intended to protect your health but also to protect the device from damage. Please read the following points carefully:
- There are no components inside the product that require maintenance by the operator. Opening or dismantling the product invalidates the CE certification and guarantee claims/warranty.
- The product may be damaged if it is dropped, even from a low height.
Avoid the following adverse conditions during operation:
- Moisture or excess humidity
- Extreme heat or cold
- Direct sunlight
- Dust or flammable gases, vapours or solvents
Strong vibrations - Strong magnetic fields (e.g. next to machines or loudspeakers)
- The camera must not be installed on unstable surfaces.
General safety information:
- Do not leave packaging material lying around. Plastic bags, sheeting, polystyrene packaging, etc. can pose a danger to children if played with.
- The video surveillance camera contains small parts which could be swallowed and must be kept out of the reach of children for safety reasons.
- Do not insert any objects into the device through the openings.
- Only use replacement devices and accessories that are approved by the manufacturer. Do not connect any non-compatible products.
- Please pay attention to the safety information and user manuals for the other connected devices.
- Check the device for damage before putting it into operation. Do not put the device into operation if you identify any damage.
- Adhere to the normal voltage limits specified in the technical data. Higher voltages could destroy the device and pose a health risk (electric shock).

When installing the device in an existing video surveillance system, ensure that all devices have been disconnected from the mains power circuit and low-voltage circuit.

If in doubt, have a specialist technician carry out assembly, installation and connection of the device. Improper or unprofessional work on the power supply system or domestic installation puts both you and other persons at risk.
Connect the installations so that the mains power circuit and low-voltage circuit always run separately
from each other. They should not be connected at any point or become connected as a
result of a malfunction.

|  | The effective IR range will depend on the installation location. If there are surfaces that absorb light or no objects that reflect IR light in the field of view, the IR range will be reduced and/or the video image will be too dark. Reflective objects in the immediate vicinity of the camera (e.g. roof gutter or wall) may also result in the reflection of IR light, which can disturb the image. |
4. Initial start-up
4.1 Using the ABUS IP Installer for camera search
Install and start up the ABUS IP Installer using the enclosed software CD (or alternatively using the ABUS website www.abus.com, available for each respective product).
The IP camera should now appear in the selection list without the relevant IP address for the target network, where appropriate. The IP settings for the camera can be changed using the IP installer.
The language preference for the camera can also be changed using the ABUS IP installer. This will change the language preference for the master and installer users at the same time (for an explanation of master/installer, see chapter "User accounts and passwords"). Individual language preferences can be amended in the settings menus for master and installer.

Please be aware, that the language preference for the camera homepage is set automatically depending on the operating system language preference. If this language is not available in the camera, the homepage will be shown in English.
Using the "Browser" button, a previously selected camera can be opened directly in the internet browser (the default browser for Windows will be used).

4.2 Accessing the network camera using a web browser
Enter the camera IP address into the address bar in the browser (if a different HTTP Port is used in Internet Explorer you must also enter "http://" before the IP address.)

7.5 Advanced camera settings
7.5.1 Video
7.5.1.1 Image

Brightness, contrast, saturation, hue: Adjust these values to suit the ambient conditions. Sharpness: set the electronic oversharpening for the image (edge overdraw)
Iris mode: choose between manual and automatic iris control, depending on your model. If only one mode is available, then it is the only mode offered.
Exposure time: select a value for the fixed exposure time.
Gain: The higher the value is, the lighter the image is in poor lighting conditions and therefore the higher the image noise is.
Day/night switching: select a method for switching between day and night mode. Day: the camera stays in day mode. Night: the camera stays in night mode. Auto: Automatic switching according to light conditions Schedule: switching at fixed times. You must enter the day start time and day end time. Triggered by event: switching is performed by triggering the switching input. The output status can be achieved via the status option if the input is not triggered.
Sensitivity: Switching threshold: the lower the value, the later the camera switches to night mode.
Switch time: delay in seconds until switching to day or night mode.
Overexposure protection: prevents glare effects from objects that are too close when IR lighting is enabled.
BLC: backlight compensation with reference to a selected area
WDR: wide dynamic function for improved display of high contrasts.
The WDR level should be reduced if the image displayed is too bright.
Wide dynamic level: select the WDR level. A higher level may increase image noise.
White balance: you can select between different variants of white balance.
Digital Noise reduction: function to reduce noise in the image. The higher the value, the
more noise is removed and the more static the image appears.
Noise reduction level: select the DNR level
Mirroring: this setting can be used to mirror the image horizontally or
horizontally and vertically.
Video standard: Here you can set the mains frequency of the power supply
network.

The effective IR range will depend on the installation location. If there are surfaces that absorb light or no objects that reflect IR light in the field of view, the IR range will be reduced and/or the video image will be too dark.
Reflective objects in the immediate vicinity of the camera (e.g. roof gutter or wall) may also result in the reflection of IR light, which can disturb the image.

8. Maintenance and cleaning
8.1 Function test
Regularly check the technical safety of the product, e.g. check the housing for damage.
If it appears to no longer be possible to operate the product safely, stop using it and secure it to prevent unintentional use.
It is likely that safe operation is no longer possible in the event that:
- the device shows signs of visible damage
the device no longer works correctly - the device has been stored in adverse conditions for a long period of time
- the device has been exposed to stresses during transportation.

Please note:
You do not need to perform any maintenance on the product. There are no components requiring servicing or checking inside the product. Never open it.
8.2 Cleaning
Clean the product with a clean, dry cloth. The cloth can be dampened with lukewarm water to remove stubborn dirt.

Make sure that no liquids enter the inside of the device, as this will destroy it. Do not use any chemical cleaning agents, as these could damage the surface of the housing.
9. Disposal

Devices displaying this symbol may not be disposed of with domestic waste. At the end of its service life, dispose of the product according to the applicable legal requirements.
