English
Power supply
Only operate this device through a power source which supplies the mains power specified on
the type plate. If you are unsure of the power supply available to you, contact your energy
provider.
Disconnect the device from the power supply before carrying out maintenance or installation
work.
The device is only fully disconnected from the mains network when the power supply unit is
removed.
To fully disconnect the device completely from the mains, the mains plug must be withdrawn
from the mains socket.
In order to eliminate the risk of fire, the device's mains plug should always be disconnected from
the mains socket, if the device is not being used for an extended period of time.
Overload/overvoltage
Prior to unstable weather and/or when there is a risk of lightning strike, disconnect the device
from the mains network or connect the device to a UPS.
Avoid overloading electrical sockets, extension cables and adapters, as this can result in fire or
electric shock.
Cable
Always grasp all cables by the plug connector and do not pull the cable itself.
Never grasp the power cable with wet hands, as this can cause a short circuit or electric shock.
Do not place the device itself, items of furniture or other heavy objects on the cable and ensure
that it does not become kinked, especially at the connector plug and at the connection sockets.
Never tie a knot in the cable and do not bundle it together with other cables.
All cables should be laid so that they cannot be trodden on, or cause a hazard.
Damaged power cables can cause fire or electric shock. Check the power cable from time to
time.
Do not modify or manipulate the power cable or plug.
Only use adapter plugs or extension cables that conform to applicable safety standards, and do
not interfere with the mains or power cables.
Children
Keep electrical devices out of reach of children. Never allow children to use electrical devices
unsupervised. Children may not always properly identify possible hazards. Small parts may be
fatal if swallowed.
Keep packaging film away from children. There is a risk of suffocation.
This device is not intended for children. If used incorrectly, parts under spring tension may fly out
and cause injury to children (e.g. to eyes).
Surveillance
The use of surveillance equipment may be forbidden or regulated by law in some countries.
Before using this equipment, ensure that all of your surveillance activities are completely legal.

English
Start-up
Observe all safety and operating instructions before operating the device for the first time.
Warning
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.
Warning
Improper or unprofessional work on the mains network or domestic installations puts both
you and others 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.
Care and maintenance
Maintenance is necessary if the device has been damaged (e.g. damage to the power cable and plug,
or the housing), or if liquids or foreign bodies have got into the interior of the device, or if it has been
exposed to rain or damp, or if it does not work properly or has been dropped.
Maintenance
If smoke, unusual noises or smells develop, switch the device off immediately and unplug from
the socket. In such cases, the device should not be used until it has been inspected by a
qualified technician.
Have all maintenance tasks carried out by qualified technicians only.
Never open the housing on the device or accessories unless this is necessary. As there is
always a risk to life due to electric shock when the housing is open, only open the housing when
the device is disconnected from the power source.
With some devices, opening the device is unavoidable and permitted for the following purposes:
Installing the device
Inserting a storage medium (SD card or hard disk drive)
Accessing essential functions (reset button or WPS button)
Cleaning
Only clean the device housing with a damp cloth.
Do not use solvents, white spirit, thinners etc. or any of the following substances:
Brine, insect spray, solvents containing chlorine or acids (ammonium chloride), or scouring
powder.
Rub the surface gently with the cotton cloth until it is completely dry.
The device operates with a dangerous voltage level. When conducting maintenance
or cleaning work, disconnect the device from the mains.

should be established. A crossover network cable is not required for this. You can use the supplied
patch cable for direct connection for initial start-up.
Connecting the network camera directly to a PC/laptop
1. Ensure that a CAT 5 network cable is used.
2. Connect the cable to the Ethernet interface of the PC/laptop and the network camera.
3. Connect the network camera to the power supply.
4. Configure the network interface of your PC/laptop to the IP address 192.168.0.2
Connecting the network camera to a router/switch
1. Ensure that a CAT 5 network cable is used for the connection.
2. Connect the PC/laptop to the router/switch.
3. Connect the network camera to the router/switch.
4. Connect the network camera to the power supply.
5. If a DHCP server is available on your network, set the network interface of your PC/laptop to
"Obtain an IP address automatically".
6. If no DHCP server is available, configure the network interface of your PC/laptop to 192.168.0.2
and the default gateway to 192.168.0.1.

6. First access
The first access to the IP camera simultaneously enables the device and makes it ready for operation.
6.1. First access with ABUS IP Installer
You can initiate first access to the IP camera using the IP Installer. The IP Installer is included on the
enclosed CD or can be downloaded from our website www.abus.com.
Install the IP Installer on your Windows PC. Make sure you have installed the latest version. The
highlighted icon on the screenshot below shows you whether a new version is available.
When the IP Installer is started, your network will automatically be scanned for ABUS IP cameras.
Double-click the camera you wish to set up in order to open the camera’s web interface. Alternatively,
you can use the “Enable” button to carry out the activation via the IP Installer.
6.2. Password assignment - Activation
Once you have opened the camera’s web interface for the first time or when you use the IP Installer for
activation, a dialogue box will appear prompting you to enter a password.
No administrator password is set prior to delivery. The administrator user name “installer” has been set
at the factory and can be changed in the settings later.
