Connecting ethernet cable
To maintain tightness of ethernet cable connection, please follow instruction below:

1. Unscrew the nut (b) from the connector cover (a), put the sealing ring on the socket (c)
2. Route the network cable through parts (a) and (b). Insert the RJ-45 plug into the socket (c)
3. Screw the connector cover (a) onto the socket (c). Press the cable seal (d) into the upper part of the connector cover (a) as far as it will go – the seal has a cut enabling it to be put on the cable.
4. Tighten the nut (b) as far as it will go.

Caution!
The other connectors are not hermetic. The user should ensure the tightness of these sockets on his own.

Power supply connection
The camera can be powered from AC or DC power supplies available on the market, provided that it meets the technical requirements of the camera. The power supply must provide a voltage of 24V, it must allow the consumption of at least 45W of power, and have a 2.5/5.5 cylindrical power plug (voltage polarity in the plug does not matter).
It is also possible to power the camera via the RJ45 network socket, using devices compliant with the PoE++ standard (IEEE 802.3bt Class 6)

It is allowed to simultaneously power the camera from the 24V power supply and the PoE++ switch. In this case, the 24V power supply has priority.

Caution!
Do not use power supplies and POE adapters that do not comply with the IEEE 802.3bt standard, the so-called “passive POE” power supplies. Damage resulting from the use of an unsuitable adapter is not covered by the warranty!

Wall mounting of the camera

• Preparation of the installation site:

1. Place the mounting template (or the foot of the wall mount) on the surface on which the camera is to be mounted and use it as a template to mark the drilling points.
2. Drill holes in the marked places, insert expansion plugs.
3. Drill a hole for the cables at the connection point (if necessary)
4. Screw the two screws into the upper holes until they protrude by about 12 mm

• Preparing the camera:

1. Pass the cables through the wall bracket
2. Attach the bracket to the camera.
3. Fasten the safety cable to the ear in the holder.

• Camera Installation:

1. Connect the electric wires
2. Hang the camera with the bracket on the two upper screws
3. Screw in the two lower screws until they stop
4. Tighten the top screws fully

Caution!
Pay particular attention to the surface to which is attached the camera to have the appropriate capacity.

Caution!
In the case of installation on uneven / rough surfaces, it is recommended to additionally seal the place of mounting the camera foot with sealing compound. Pay particular attention to the mounting holes and if they are through, they should also be sealed.

Caution!
The declared tightness class of the camera applies to its housing and does not take into account the possibility of moisture penetrating the camera through the connection cables. Securing the cables by e.g. sealing them with an appropriate mass or hiding them in a sealed container is the responsibility of the person installing the camera. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage or damage to the camera caused by failure to fulfill the above- mentioned obligation, which at the same time means that they are not subject to warranty repairs.

Starting the camera
To start the camera, connect the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 network socket of the IP camera, and the other end to the network switch.
The recommended method of starting and configuring the camera is to connect it to a PC or laptop in a dedicated network switch to which there are no other devices connected. In the case of power supply from an external power supply, you can use any network switch, or connect the network cable directly to the computer. For network configuration data (IP address, gateway, netmask etc.), please contact the administrator of the network in which the device is to work.

• Connection using a PoE network switch

• Connection using an external AC adapter and non-PoE network switch

• Connection using the camera’s external AC adapter and direct connection to a computer

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.

Initial configuration via the web browser
The default network settings for 6000 IP camera series 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 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 UTILIZING WEB BROSWER

 CONFIGURATION OF OBJECT TRACKING OPTIONS

One possible reaction of the camera to an intelligent image analysis event is object tracking. This allows for the observation of the object’s route and identification of its features, as well as for distinguishing the type of object (four-wheeled vehicle, two-wheeler, person). During tracking, the camera remembers the features of the tracked object and the appearance of another object in the field of view, even of the same type, does not distract it.
The tracking option is available for line crossing detection, region entrance and exiting and intrusion detection. The configuration of tracking is carried out in several stages and will be described on the basis of the settings for intrusion detection.
The main trace configuration options are in the “Settings -> Alarm -> Smart Tracking” menu.

• The “Tracking Mode” selection list allows you to decide which tasks will be prioritized for the cameras when tracking is enabled.
• When selecting “Manual PTZ Control Priority” (the default option), the priority will be to be able to manually control the PTZ by the operator. In this mode, the camera will follow (or wait for the object to appear), but when the operator presses one of the PTZ control buttons, the camera will immediately stop the tracking action in progress and will move the PTZ dome according to the operator’s instructions. After the operator finishes PTZ control, the camera will return to the tracking start position after a specified time and wait for  the object to appear.
• There are three settings available for this option: “Auto homing” (default – no limit) – this is the time the camera tracks an object remaining in its field of view. After this time has elapsed, the camera abandons tracking and returns to the starting position. In the event that the tracking time has not yet expired, but the tracked object has hidden behind an obstacle, the camera will immediately return to the starting position. When checked, you can set the tracking time from 3 to 20 seconds. “Homing after object stop” (default – immediately) – this is the time after which the camera returns to the start position if the tracked object has stopped in the field of view of the camera. When enabled, this time can be set from 0 to 100 seconds. “Homing after PTZ end” (default – 3 seconds) – this is the time after which the camera returns to the home position, after the operator finishes controlling PTZ. When enabled, this time can be set in the range of 3 to 20 seconds.
• When selecting “PTZ Auto Tracking Priority” from the “Tracking mode” selection list, object tracking will be the priority for the camera. In this mode, the camera only performs tracking tasks and ignores operator PTZ commands. To enable PTZ control, switch to the “Manual PTZ control Priority” option, or use the “Unblock” button (description later in the manual).
• There are two settings for this option, “Auto homing” and “Homing after object stop”.

OBJECT TRACKING

After configuring the tracking settings option, further settings are made in the image analysis function menu, in this example the intrusion detection menu.
In the “Detection Config” tab, enable the function and configure the required options, but do not yet enable the “Trigger Track” option. Then go to the “Area” tab where, using the PTZ control buttons, set the appropriate field of view, and then, in the preview window, define the detection area and save the changes.

After completing the above steps, press the “Lock” button. Pressing this button saves the current PTZ position as the start position for tracking (the start position for tracking is saved as special preset number 89). Then go back to the “Detection Config” tab, enable the “Trigger Track” option and save the changes. From this moment on, the camera starts tracking objects in the detection area.
The “Lock” button changes its function to “Unlock” when pressed. Unlocking tracking is needed in two cases:

• when the “PTZ Auto Tracking Priority” option is selected in the “Settings -> Alarm -> Smart Tracking” menu (when manual PTZ control is disabled), pressing the “Unlock” button enables manual PTZ control.
• when we want to change the area of observation
• Pressing the “Unlock” button suspends object tracking until you press the “Lock” button.
• Please note that each press of the “Lock” button, saves the current position of the PTZ dome as a new start position for tracking.
