6. Hardware installation and operation
Refer to the illustrations on page 2 of this manual.
•Choose the location for the camera, keeping following guidelines in mind:
odo not install the camera in locations where extremely high or low temperatures or excessive
vibrations may occur.
oavoid mounting the camera near high electro-magnetic fields.
odo not aim the camera at the sun or other extremely bright objects or reflections (e.g. metal
doors).
•Use the mounting bracket [7] to determine the location of the mounting holes. Drill the holes and
secure the bracket [7] using 3 screws.
•Attach the camera to the mounting bracket [7] with the camera bolt [5].
•Slide the sunshield [4] in place.
•Point the camera towards the zone of interest and tighten the position bolt [6].
•Connect the antenna [8] to the antenna connector and/or connect a network cable (included) to
the RJ45 jack [9]. If in doubt, contact your local network service provider.
Note: it is possible to connect the camera straight to the RJ45 port of a computer. In this case a
crossed cable (not incl.) should be used and network settings must be configured manually.
•Plug the DC connector of the power adaptor into the 5VDC input jack [10]. Only use the included
adaptor or one with the same specifications.
•Plug the adaptor into a suitable mains outlet (100~240V AC/50~60Hz).
Note: it takes about 30s for the camera to initialise.
7. Software installation
•Insert the included CD-ROM into a suitable computer system (not incl.).
System requirements: CPU ≥2.06 GHz / memory ≥256MB / network ≥10 MB / video card ≥
64MB memory / recommended OS: Windows 2000 or XP / Mac.
