Explanation
Safety instructions
General safety regulations
Assembly, installation, commissioning and repair of electronic devices must be carried out by
qualified electricians.
Observe the latest regulations and standards for system installations.
WARNING! Danger to life due to electric shock
When working on main power connections of 230 V,
the safety regulations according to DIN VDE 0100 must be observed.
When installing TCS:BUS systems the general safety regulations for telecommunication sys-
tems according to VDE 0800 must be observed. Inter alia:
•separated cable routing of high and low voltage lines
•minimum distance of 10 cm in case of a common cable routing
•use of separators between high and low voltage lines within shared cable ducts
•use of standard telecommunication lines, e.g. J-Y (St) Y with 0.8 mm diameter,
•already existing lines (modernisation) with deviating cross-sections can be used in compli-
ance with the loop resistance
Observe the general requirements for network installations according to DIN EN 50173.
Requirements to protect against lightning
CAUTION! Device damage due to over-voltage
By suitable lightning protection measures it has to be ensured that the electric voltage of 32 V
DC at each connection is not to be exceeded.
Note for video surveillance according to DIN 33450
Creating and saving video recordings can infringe personal rights.
Always observe the current legislation and labelling requirements
during assembly and operation of video components.

Mounting and installation
Installation
Use the enclosed installation kit for installing the flush-mount box.
Installation site
For an optimal operation we recommend a mounting height of
1.57 m (centre of the device above ground,
Fig. 1).
To achieve an optimal vi
deo image quality do not point the
camera to:
• solar ra
diation
• strong sources of light
• bright or strongly reflecting walls
Ensure that the ARGOS CAE3x02-IP-0156 (black
anodised) is not exposed to direct solar radiation. The
housing can heat up too much.

Flush-mount
►
Make a wall cut out for the flush-mount box.
Use the flush-mount box as template for the wall cut
out.
•Do not wall in or foam in the pressure compensa-
tion element.
•Observe that there is a gap between the masonry
and the pressure compensation element.
►
Mark the drilling holes with the help of the flush-mount box
(Fig. 2). For fixing the flush-mount box you can use the out-
er holes (1) or the inner holes, depending on the type of in-
stallation (2).
•Ensure a vertical installation and the installation
position (3).
•For the alignment use the integrated level.
•The alignment of the device cannot be corrected
later.
►
Put the enclosed dowels into the holes.
Use the enclosed
sealing plugs (Fig. 3). There are no warranty claims
due to improper installation.
►
Insert the sealing plug (4) into the flush-mount box.
►
Close the cable gland that is not used with the enclosed
sealing plugs (5).
►
Guide the connection cable through the cable glan
d and the
sealing plug.
►
Fix the flush-mount box with 4 screws (6) to the wall (Fig.
4).
•For marking the inner holes you can puncture the
sealing plugs with a small screwdriver.
•The screws need to be screwed through the seal-
ing plugs. Thus, the device is sealed.

Intercom function for visitor communication
The Intercom function can be used to communicate with visitors, further for employees who, e.g. have
forgotten their identification card. Due to the Voice over IP protocol SIP, the device is compatible to
modern (video) telephony infrastructure. Thus, no additional end device is needed on the company side.
The call can be forwarded to every Voice over IP end device that is accessible per network and SIP. The
Intercom function is operated by selecting a contact person from the telephone list.
Further information on Setting up a phone book, you'll find in the chapter User (page 32).
