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 should be kept
out of 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 detect any damage.
 Adhere to the operating 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.

6. Installation
Instructions for how to mount the camera are described in the quickstart guide for the relevant IP
camera IPCAXXXX.
When mounting the dome camera IPCA72500 please make sure that the desiccant
bag supplied is placed inside the camera before placing on the dome. The bag must
be placed close to the base plate. The bag must not be in the field of view of the
lens. The bag must not be placed directly behind the lens or the camera board.
6.2 Laying the cables
You must pay attention to the following instructions when laying the cables:
IPCA22500
A break-out panel for feeding the cable is located on the base plate for laying the cables at the
side. Use pliers to remove the break-out panel. Use a file to smooth out the edges of the break-
out panel.
IPCA32500
A break-out panel for feeding the cable is provided for laying the cables at the side. Use a flat,
narrow screwdriver to remove the break-out panel from the plastic.
These cameras are equipped ex works with a short connecting cable for networking
(RJ45), power supply (barrel connector) and analogue video output. Making the
connection is possible from inside the camera. In the most simple case, a network
cable with Power over Ethernet power supply is all that's needed to operate the
camera.
If the functions switching input, switching output or audio input/output are needed,
you must install an extended connecting cable (TVAC40720).
IPCA52000
When laying the cable, ensure that none of the plug connections is subject to mechanical tension.
Furthermore, cables must be fixed in such a way as to prevent the plug from being bent or
snapped off.
IPCA62500 / IPCA62505
A break-out panel for feeding the cable is located on the base plate for laying the cables at the
side. Use pliers to remove the break-out panel. Use a file to smooth out the edges of the break-
out panel.

71
IPCA72500 / IPCA72505
For this type of camera, the cable is intended to be laid at the side or concealed. There are
openings at the side and on the base for this. The unused opening is sealed using a blind plug.
For installation the supplied cable gland must be used (for the side and base) in accordance with
protection class IP66. When using the optional wall bracket (TVAC31310), the cable gland may
be omitted, as the wall bracket panel and dome camera have been manufactured to fit together
tightly.
These cameras are equipped ex works with a short connecting cable for networking
(RJ45), power supply (barrel connector) and analogue video output. Making the
connection is possible from inside the camera. In the most simple case, a network
cable with Power over Ethernet power supply is all that's needed to operate the
camera.
If the functions switching input, switching output or audio input/output are needed,
you must install an extended connecting cable (TVAC40720).
6.3 Power supply
Before starting installation, ensure that the power supply voltage and the rated voltage of the
camera are identical.
DC power supply, 12 V
The cameras have a 12 V DC power supply. Ensure correct polarity when connecting. The
polarity is indicated with "+" and "-".
In addition, all cameras have Power over Ethernet (PoE) to supply the camera directly via the
network cable.
If the camera has the function "Record during network failure" and this function
is to be used, it's necessary to supply the camera via the 12 V DC terminal (do
not use PoE).
When using PoE, you must pay attention to the power budget of the network
switch. Make sure that each network port provides the maximum power for the
standard (15.4 watt per network port).
If the network switch distributes the power dynamically via all ports, it may
cause power shortages.

72
6.4 Attaching the network cable
The maximum network cable (CAT7) length from the camera to the nearest active network point
(e.g. network switch) should not exceed 100 metres.
6.5 Aligning the camera
Instructions for how to align the camera are given in the quickstart guide for the relevant IP
camera IPCAXXXX.
6.6 Zoom and focus settings
IPCA22500 / IPCA32500 / IPCA62500 / IPCA62505 / IPCA72500 / IPCA72505
The cameras have a built-in Motor Vario zoom lens. It is possible to change the zoom factor or
adapt the focus via the camera's web interface ("installer" access).
The zoom factor can be changed in stages, whereas the focus is automatically set for each of
these zoom factors. It's possible to change the focus of each zoom factor via the camera's web
interface ("installer" access). The change will be saved to the camera (over button “SAVE” on
main page of “installer” access).
The IPCA72505 has separate focus settings for day and night mode.
By default automatic focusing is carried out in the day mode as well as in the night
mode. If this fails due to the scene scene (for example, by objects in the field of view
in the near and far range), the desired focus can be manually set and stored using
the buttons on the LIVE page.
The stored value is then used for the next day or night switching.
When the camera undergoes a factory reset, the factory-set zoom/focus relationship is reset too.
IPCA52000
Settings for zoom and focus are made manually in the lens to be installed (lens is not included in
the scope of delivery).

73
6.7 Attaching the optional connecting cable for IPCA32500, IPCA72500 and IPCA72505
Using the optional connecting cables TVAC40720 and TVAC40730, suitable dome cameras can
