2.2. Connecting ethernet cable
To maintain tightness of ethernet cable connection, please follow instruction below:
1. Unscrew the nut (2) from the connector cover (1), mount the sealing ring on the socket (3).
2. Route the network cable through the components (1) and (2). Plug the RJ-45 connector into the
socket (3).
3. Screw the connector cover (1) on the socket (3). Inside the upper part of the connector cover (1) push
in to the stop the seal of the cable (4) - the seal is cut to insert on the network cable.
4. Tighten up to the stop nut (2).
CAUTION!
The declared degree of protection of the camera relates to its housing and does not take into
account the possibility of moisture infiltration into the interior of the camera by connecting
cables. Connection cables protection through i.e. sealing up is the responsibility of the camera
installer. The manufacturer is not liable for any damages to the camera caused as a result of
failing in performing that activity by installer, which also means that camera damaged in that
way is not subject to warranty repairs.
Camera power supply connector is not hermetic. User should seal this connector by himself.
Camera can be supplied using external power supply unit corresponding with the camera parameters or
by using RJ45 network socket and PoE (802.3af) power supply unit. If you’re using external power
supply please connect wires according to polarisation shown on picture:
CAUTION!
In order to provide protection against voltage surges/lightning strikes, usage of appropriate surge
protectors is advised. Any damages resulting from surges are not eligible for service repairs.

2.3. Camera mounting
To mount a camera please follow the instructions below:
• Put the bracket to the wall in a desired mounting place (with cable hole). Take the drill pattern
and mark future drilling holes for screws and wires.
• Drill holes in accordance with previously done markings and base hole placement.
• Mount the camera using the supplied plugs and screws.
• If necessary, unscrew the camera bubble, insert memory card, adjust camera position and
screw camera bubble.
• Connect the camera wires,
CAUTION!
Please note that the wall or ceiling must have enough strength to support the IP Camera.
CAUTION!
In order to obtain declared degree of protection please seal the camera bracket to prevent water
getting inside. Furthermore, when installing the bracket on rough/uneven surfaces, please
additionally seal the junction with appropriate sealing mass. Please pay special attention to any
mounting holes and if they are a loop-through ones, seal them too.

2.4. Starting the IP camera
To run NOVUS IP camera you have to connect ethernet cable between camera and network PoE switch
with PoE support (IEEE 802.3af).
You can also connect it directly via power supply adapter with parameters compatible with camera
power supply specification.
After connecting power status red LED should light on. Initialization process is then started which can
take about 2 minutes. You can then proceed to connect to the camera via web browser.
The recommended way to start an IP camera and perform its configuration is a connection directly
to the network switch which is not connected to other devices. To obtain further information about
network configuration parameters (IP address, gateway, network mask, etc.) please contact your
network administrator.
• Connection utilising network switch with PoE support
• Connection utilising external power supply and network switch

• Connection utilising external power supply directly to the computer
Information:
Power supply adapter is not included. Please use power adapter with parameters specified in user ‘s
manual.
2.5. Initial configuration via the web browser
The default network settings for NVIP-2V-6401 camera are :
1. IP address= 192.168.1.200
2. Network mask - 255.255.255.0
3. Gateway - 192.168.1.1
4. User name - root
5. Password - pass
Knowing the camera’s IP address you need to appropriately set PC IP address, so the two devices can
operate in one network subnet ( e.g. for IP 192.168.1.1, appropriate address for the camera ranges from
192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254, for example 192.168.1.60). It is not allowed to set the same addresses for
camera and PC computer
You can either set a network configuration (IP address, gateway, net mask, etc.) of NOVUS IP camera
yourself or select DHCP mode (DHCP server is required in this method in target network) by using
web browser or by NMS software. When you use DHCP server check IP address lease and its linking
with camera MAC address to avoid changing or losing IP address during device operation or network/
DHCP server breakdown. You have to remember to use a new camera IP address after changing
network parameters.
After network setting configuration has been done, the camera can be connected to a target network.

2.6. Security recommendations for network architecture and configuration
CAUTION!
Below are shown security recommendations for network architecture and configuration
of CCTV systems that are connected to the Internet to reduce the risk
of unauthorized interference with the system by a third party.
1. Absolutely change the default passwords and user names (if the device gives this possibility) of
all applied network devices (recorders, cameras, routers, network switches, etc.) to the
severely complexity password. Use lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers, and special characters
if there is such possibility.
2. Depending on the available functionality in the order to restrict access to the used network devices at
the administrator account level, it is recommended to configure the users accounts accordingly.
3. Do not use DMZ function (Demilitarized zone) in your router. Using that function you open the
access to recorder system from the Internet on all ports, which gives possibility for an unauthorized
interference with the system.
Instead of DMZ use port forwarding redirect only the ports which are necessary for the performance
of the connection (detailed information about ports of communication in different models of recorders,
cameras, etc. can be found in the operating instructions).
4. Use routers with firewall function and make sure it is enabled and properly configured.
5. It is recommended to change the default network communication port numbers of used devices
if there is such possibility.
6. If used network devices has aUPnP feature and it is not used, turn it off.
7. If used network devices has aP2P feature and it is not used, turn it off.
8. If used network devices support HTTPS protocol for connection, it is recommended to use it.
9. If used network devices support IP filtering for authorized connections function, it is recommended
to use it.
10. If used recorder has two network interfaces it is recommended to use both of them to physically
separate network for cameras and network for Internet connection. The only device in the system,
accessible from Internet will be recorder - there will be no physically access directly to any camera.
