VIDEOS

Need help with the installation? Be sure to watch our installation videos
which can be found on http://www.doorbird.com/support.

Each individual step of the installation is clearly documented in the videos

INSTALLATION

All steps below should be carried out carefully by a competent adult, taking
into consideration any applicable safety regulations. Should you have any questions, please contact us or a competent specialist directly. Please ensure that all wires used for the installation are undamaged along their entire length and approved for this type of use.

Network speed and network components

Please ensure that the upload speed of your Internet connection is at least 0.5 Mbps. You can also carry out a speed test at any time via the DoorBird App. The user experience is only as good as your network speed, network stability and quality of your network components, such as your Internet router and WiFi access points or WiFi repeaters. Please also make sure that your network components are not older than two years, have been manufactured by a well-known manufacturer, and have the latest firmware installed.

Should these requirements not be fulfilled, it may happen, for example that the performance of audio and video is poor or push notifications are delayed or do not arrive on your smartphone or tablet at all.

Requirements:

High-speed Internet (via landline): DSL, cable or optical fibre Network: 802.11 b/g/n 2.4 GHz or Ethernet, with DHCP

STEP 1: SWITCHING OFF POWER

Switch off the power to all wires leading to the assembly location, i.e. the door station, door chime, electric door opener, power supply unit, PoE-Switch / PoE-Injector etc.

STEP 2: DETERMINING THE ASSEMBLY LOCATION

The device is IP50 certified (not water-proof). Please make sure to put the device into an appropriate housing if you want to use it outdoors.

The network cable between the device and the product to supply with PoE and network data can have maximum length of 80 meters/262 feet.

STEP 3: DOWELS AND SCREWS

You can mount the device permanently on a wall or ceiling using appropriate screws. Please skip this step if you do not want to mount the device permanently.

Press the drilling template of the device against the wall or ceiling at the desired installation site and mark the boreholes with a pencil. Remove the drilling template again. Ensure that no cables are to be found in the wall or ceiling behind the boreholes.

If the wall of the house is not made of wood, you should drill dowel holes 5 mm in diameter in the wall according to the drilling template and then place the dowels provided into the boreholes. If the wall of the house is made of wood, dowels are normally not required. There are special dowels for assembling the device on an insulating wall, e.g. Fischer insulating dowels. Please check with your insulating material manufacturer regarding which dowels they recommend.

Press the device on the wall or ceiling, so you can see the boreholes in the wall/ ceiling through the screw holes of the device. Use the Phillips countersunk head screws provided to position it in the dowels or on the wall to fix the device on the wall/ceiling.

STEP 4: INSTALLATION

Connect the network cable coming from your Internet to the RJ45 jack “LAN IN” of the device. Then connect a second network cable to the RJ45 jack “POE + DATA OUT” of the device. Connect the spare end of the network cable connected to the RJ45 jack “POE + DATA OUT” to the product you would like to establish a PoE and network data connection with, e.g. a DoorBird IP
Video Door Station, DoorBird 2-Wire Ethernet PoE Converter (Sender) or an IP Camera.

A Cat.5 network cable with RJ45 plug or better must be used to connect to the “LAN IN” and “POE + DATA OUT” jacks of the device.

Connect the 5.5 mm DC plug of the Power supply unit (mains adaptor) supplied with the device into the jack “15 VDC IN” of the device. Do not plug the Power supply unit itself into a wall socket yet.

STEP 5: ACTIVATING THE DEVICES

Switch on the power leading to the assembly location again. Then plug the Power supply unit (mains adaptor) of the device into a wall socket.

The “PWR” and the “POE” Diagnostic-LEDs of the device should be active now. Please check the network cable connections and the power supply if the Diagnostic-LEDs are not active.

DIAGNOSTIC-LEDS

You can check if the power supply and PoE supply of the device are working by checking the Diagnostic-LEDs. The Diagnostic-LEDs should be active.

Data privacy and data security

1. For maximum security, the device uses the same encryption technologies as are used in online banking. For your security, no port forwarding or DynDNS is used either.
2. The data centre location for remote access over the Internet by means of an App is obligatory in the EU if the determined Internet IP-Address location of the device is within the EU. The data centre is operated in line with the most stringent security standards.
3. Video, audio and any other surveillance methods can be regulated by laws that vary from country to country. Check the laws in your local region before installing and using this device for surveillance purposes.

If the device is a door-, indoor station or camera:

• In many countries video and voice signal may only be transmitted once a visitor has rung the bell (data privacy, configurable in the App).
• Please carry out the mounting in such a way that the detection range of the camera limits the device exclusively to the immediate entrance area.
• The device may come with a visitor history and motion sensor. You can activate/deactivate this function if required.

If necessary, indicate the presence of the device in a suitable place and in a suitable form.

Please observe any relevant country-specific statutory regulations concerning the use of surveillance components and surveillance cameras applicable at the installation site.

Check with the property owner and your house community if you are allowed to install and use this product. Bird Home Automation GmbH cannot be held responsible for any miss-use or miss-configuration of this product, including the unauthorized opening of a door.

Bird Home Automation cannot be held responsible for damages caused by improper existing installations or improper installation.

Software and operating system’s updates (so-called “firmware updates”) are generally automatically installed on the products of Bird Home Automation GmbH via Internet, if technically possible. Automatic firmware updates keep the products‘ software up to date so that they always work reliably, safely and efficiently.
Through further development, features can be added, extended or slightly changed. Major changes or limitations to existing features will generally occur if Bird Home Automation GmbH deems it necessary (e.g. for data protection, data security or stability reasons, or to keep them up to date). When a firmware update is available, Bird Home Automation GmbH‘s servers generally automatically distribute it to all compatible products connected to the Internet or Bird Home Automation GmbH‘s servers. This process is gradual and can take several weeks. As soon as a product receives a firmware update, the system will be installed and will restart by itself.
Installed firmware updates cannot be undone. Since the products and software of Bird Home Automation GmbH are not explicitly customerspecific products, a customer cannot deny an automatic update if the product is connected to the Internet or to the Bird Home Automation GmbH’s server.

Instructions for disposal

Do not dispose of the device with regular domestic waste. Electronic equipment must be disposed e.g. at local collection points for waste electronic equipment in compliance with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive.
