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.

2.1 Description of connectors and camera equipment of both camera modules

2.2. Power supply connection
The main module of the camera can be powered from a commercially available DC power supply, provided that it meets the technical requirements of the camera i.e. the source must provide 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 technology (IEEE 802.3af, Class 3).
Power is required for both the main module and the camera itself. The camera can be powered from a 12VDC power supply allowing at least 10W power consumption, or from the output marked on the main module of the camera as “Power OUT”, using a two- wire cable terminated with a DC 2.5/5.5 cylindrical plug with contact polarity as above. This cable must be equipped on its own and is not included in the kit.
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!

2.3. Camera module mounting

1. Remove the camera module holder by unscrewing both fixing screws on the sides indicated by red arrows.
2. Mount the camera module holder in the selected place with a suitable screw or bolt.
3. Place the camera module between the fork of the holder and mount it with fixing screws, screwing them in so that you can adjust it.
4. Adjust the camera module position and tighten with the fixing screws.

2.4. Installation of the main camera module

• Using the mounting template, mark the points for future mounting holes. (1)
• Drill holes, insert pins (2) into them and screw the bracket part as shown in the picture (3)
• Screw the second part of the bracket to the main module. (4)
• Slide from the top part of the bracket together with the module into the bracket attached to the wall. Clicking indicates that the camera module has been installed correctly. (5)

2.5 Connection of alarm inputs and outputs

2.6. Starting the IP camera
To run NOVUS IP camera you have to connect ethernet cable between camera and switch or computer.
You can 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 external power supply and network switch

• Connection using external power supply directly to the computer

• Connection using network switch with PoE

Information:
Power supply adapter is not included. Please use power adapter with parameters specified in user ‘s manual.

2.7. Initial configuration via the web browser
The default network settings for 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.

2.8. 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 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.

NETWORK CONNECTION USING WEB BROWSER

3.1. Recommended PC specification for web browser connections
Requirements below apply to connection with an IP camera, assuming smooth image display in 1920 x 1080 resolution and 30 fps speed.

1. CPU Intel i7 3 GHz
2. RAM Memory min. 6 GB
3. VGA card Nvidia GeForce 1GB
4. Operating System Windows 10
5. Network card 100/1000 Mb/s
