4.1. Overview of Connecting the N1000 to a Network
BEWARD N1000 can be connected to a local network or the Internet through a wired
connection. This camera can be connected directly to a computer or through a router, or a switch.
Common methods of Internet access include:
ADSL over telephone lines (Pic. 4.1).
Pic. 4.1
Ethernet leased line (Pic. 4.2).

4.2. Installation Recommendations
This section provides recommendations that should be observed when mounting and
installing the N1000.
Tips on camera placement:
This camera is designed for both indoor and outdoor surveillance. The operating
temperature is down to 0 and up to +50°С.
Do not expose this camera to direct sunlight for a long period of time. Do not install it
near any heat resources.
Incorrect installation may cause undesirable “blind spots” that are not visible to the
security operator.
Do not install this camera near water sources.
Avoid electromagnetic interference.
When installing the camera, take notice of possibility of laying connecting cables.
Avoid unstable installation, which may cause vibration. This, in turn, may reduce motion
detection performance and image crispness.
Surveillance cameras should be installed so that they are inaccessible to unauthorized
persons and protected enough against damage and changing of viewing direction.
When installing the camera, you should clearly determine the viewing direction.
Tips on twisted pair cable installation:
In corridors, electric and feeble-current cables should be installed in different conduits
that are disposed on different walls.
Twisted pair and electric cables can be installed in the same conduit using different
sections of the cable that have solid longitudinal partitions with at least 0.25 h of fire
resistance, which are made of non-combustible material and should be positioned in
work areas at distance of 15 meters maximum if the electrical power does not exceed 5
kW.
Electric and feeble-current cables should be placed in parallel to each other at distance
of at least 50 mm in different conduits or different sections of conduit. If the electric field
strength from the electric cables exceeds 3 V/m, you should increase the distance
between the electric and feeble-current cables or reduce the electromagnetic noise.
Twisted pair and electric cables should cross each other at right angles.
Unshielded twisted pair cables should be located at distance of at least 125 mm from
fluorescent gas-discharge lamps or from other high-voltage discharge devices.

Chapter 4. Installing the Camera and Connecting a Cable
N1000 Installation User Manual

Unshielded twisted pair cables should be located at distance of at least 1.5 meters from
electromagnetic interference sources that produce electric field strength exceeding 3
V/m.
Switchboards with pinned unshielded twisted pair cables should be located at distance
of at least 3 meters from electromagnetic interference sources that produce electric field
strength exceeding 3 V/m.
Entire twisted pair cables should be arranged between the points of connection so the
cable run is as short as possible.
Minimum cable bending radius is four times the cable diameter (or 1 inch=2.5 cm) or it is
also acceptable to install the cable so the cable bending radius is 2 inches (5 cm).
Maximum length of the entire segment is 100 meters.
4.3. Installing the Camera
Step 1: attach the bracket to the surface using 3 self-tapping screws.
Step 2: loosen the bracket screws to move the camera to the desired position.
Step 3: attach the camera to the bracket, adjust the tilt angle and fasten the camera.
4.4. Wired Connection to a Network
Step 1: provide power to the camera using the included 5 V 1 A power supply.
Step 2: use the supplied RJ45 cable to connect the camera to a network (a LAN port of the
router).
If needed, you can purchase a network cable separately or if you have the materials, tools
and skills, you can make a network cable.
A straight RJ-45 cable (UTP category 5)
The table below shows an example of a patch cord to connect the camera to a computer or
a network switch.

Chapter 5. Setting up the Wired Connection for Windows 7
To make the N1000 IP camera work together with your computer, your laptop and other
devices in a local network, you need to connect this camera to the network according to the
network parameters. This chapter explains how to define the network parameters.
NOTE:
The connection establishment process is shown for Windows 7 Ultimate. Despite titles of system menus
and options may differ from the titles of system menus and options that appear in other versions of
Windows, the connection establishment process is universal.
5.1. Defining the Local Network Parameters
When connecting the camera using an Ethernet cable, you need to define the local network
parameters.
To do so, go to Start –Control Panel (Pic. 5.1).
Pic. 5.1
In the opened window, click on the [View network status and tasks] in the [Network and
Internet] section (Pic. 5.2).

The window opens displaying information about the network connection settings. There are
two ways to configure the IP address:
Obtain an IP address automatically: select this option to obtain an IP address
automatically from a DHCP server on your network (Pic. 5.6). If an IP address is automatically
assigned to your computer, go to paragraph 5.1.1 to define the network parameters.
Pic. 5.6
Use the following IP address: an IP address is manually specified (Pic. 5.7).
Pic. 5.7

Chapter 5. Setting Up the Wired Connection for Windows 7

Please make a note of the following parameters: IP address, Subnet mask, Default
gateway, DNS server.
IMPORTANT!
If you do not make a note of the network parameters, you will not be able to return the computer’s network
settings to their initial state to connect it to a local network or the Internet after configuring the N1000.
Therefore, your computer will not have local network and/or Internet access.
5.1.1. Defining the Local Network Parameters When Using a Dynamic IP Address
NOTE:
This paragraph explains how to define the local network parameters if an IP address is automatically
assigned to your computer via DHCP server.
Connect a computer (laptop) to your local network using a network cable and wait until the
connection process is complete.
To define the local network settings, go to Start –Control Panel (Pic. 5.8).

If you see the following information in the opened window: [DHCP Enabled] –Yes, [IPv4
Address] –xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is an IP address value), it means your computer is
assigned an IP address displayed in the [IPv4 Address] line, a subnet mask displayed in the [IPv4
Subnet Mask] line, a gateway address displayed in the [IPv4 Default Gateway] line, a DNS
server address displayed in the [IPv4 DNS Server] line.
Please make a note of the following parameters: IP address, Subnet mask, Default
gateway, DNS server.
IMPORTANT!
If you do not make a note of the network parameters, you will not be able to return the computer’s network
settings to their initial state to connect the computer to a local network or the Internet after configuring the
N1000. Therefore, your computer will not have local network and/or Internet access.
IMPORTANT!
If you see the following information in the [Network Connection Details] window: [DHCP Enabled] –
Yes, [IPv4 Address Autoconfiguration] –xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is an IP address value), it
means you could not establish a wired connection and the DHCP server did not assign the computer an IP
address. Please check the connection settings or contact your system administrator.
5.2. Changing the Local Network Parameters
The default IP address of the N1000 IP camera is 192.168.0.99. To connect to the camera,
you need to get your computer and your camera on the same subnet. Take notice that each device
must have a unique IP address.
IMPORTANT!
The camera’s default IP address is 192.168.0.99. If you use several IP cameras, you need to change their
default IP addresses so that each camera will have a unique IP address to prevent an IP address conflict.
IMPORTANT!
If you are sure that your computer and your IP camera are on the same subnet, you can skip this
paragraph and go to paragraph 5.3.
To change your computer network settings, go to Start –Control Panel (Pic. 5.13).
