Package contents
After opening the package make sure that the following elements are inside:

• IP camera
• Accessories bag
• Short version of user’s manual

If any of this elements has been damaged during transport, pack all the elements back into the original box and contact your supplier for further assistance.
CAUTION! It is forbidden to use – as the camera power source – PoE equipment (adapters, etc.) not compatible with IEEE 802.3af standard (items called “passive PoE power supply”). Damages caused by the usage of improper power supply source are not covered by the warranty.

START-UP AND INITIAL IP CAMERA CONFIGURATION

CAUTION! If the device was brought from a location with lower temperature, please wait until it reaches the temperature of location it is currently in. Turning the device on immediately after bringing it from a location with lower ambient temperature is forbidden, as the condensing water vapour may cause short circuits and damage the device as a result. Before starting the device familiarize yourself with the description and the role of particular inputs, outputs and adjusting elements that the device is equipped with.

Description of connectors and control tools

1. 100 Mb/s Ethernet port (PoE RJ-45 connector)
2. Audio input (Jack 3.5 mm)
3. Power supply 12VDC
4. Counter nut
5. Base of camera
6. MicroSD card slot
7. Reset button

Power supply connection
The camera can be powered from a commercially available DC power supply, provided that it meets the technical requirements of the camera. The source must provide stabilized 12VDC voltage, must allow the consumption of at least 10W of power, and have a barrel DC 2.1/5.5 plug with the correct polarity of the contacts:
It is also possible to power the camera via the RJ45 network socket, using PoE (IEEE 802.3af, Class 3).
Caution! Do not use power supplies and POE adapters that do not comply with the IEEE 802.3at standard, the so-called “passive POE” power supplies. Damage resulting from the use of an unsuitable adapter is not covered by the warranty!

Protection against water ingress
The declared degree of protection applies only to camera housing and the location where the connection cable enters the inside of the housing.

This means that the connection cable, including sockets, connectors, switches, buttons, and other elements on this cable, as well as other camera equipment/construction elements (such as hoods, brackets, supports, etc.), are not waterproof. It is the responsibility of the person installing the camera to protect the elements that require it (and in any case the connection cable) against moisture. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damages or camera malfunctions resulting from failure to comply with the above obligation, which also means that they are not covered by the warranty repairs. The RJ-45 socket cover included in the camera accessories (depending on the version/model) is not a water protection element. Its purpose is to protect against the ingress of dust and atmospheric moisture into the socket and prevent accidental disconnections by mechanically stabilizing the network plug in the RJ-45 socket.

Camera mounting
To mount a camera please follow the instructions below:

• Unscrew the counter nut (2).
• 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 for screws, wires and base.
• Mount the camera base (1) using the supplied plugs and screws.
• If necessary, unscrew the service panel (3), mount microSD card in the socket (4) and screw the camera service panel (3).
• Connect the camera wires.
• Adjust camera position.
• Tighten to the stop counter nut (2).

Caution! Pay particular attention to the surface to which is attached the camera to have the appropriate capacity.
Caution! It is recommended to install the camera using one of the dedicated adapters. The use of an adapter allows for an aesthetic camera installation, facilitates later servicing and provides a water-protected space for hiding cables.

Adapters are additional equipment, to be purchased separately. The characteristics and functions of the adapter (such as mounting method, space for cables, etc.) depend on its model. The list of dedicated adapters and their specifications can be found on the camera’s catalog card under the “Related Products” tab

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 power it from 12VDC power supply compatible with camera power supply specification. The recommended way to start an IP camera and perform its configuration is a direct connection 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 using network switch with PoE support
• Connection using external power supply and network switch
• • Connection using 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.

Initial configuration via the web browser
The default network settings for NVIP-4H-6202-II 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.

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 a possibility.
6. If used network devices has a UPnP feature and it is not used, turn it off.
7. If used network devices has a P2P 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.
