SWITCHING OFF POWER
Switch off the power to all wires leading to the assembly location, i.e. the door chime, electric door opener, power supply unit, PoE-Switch/ PoE-Injector etc.
DISMANTLING THE EXISTING INDOOR STATION
Should there already be an indoor station on the wall, please remove it.
DETERMINING THE ASSEMBLY LOCATION
The device is designed for indoor-use only.
Recommended installation height: 160 cm / 63 in Recommended installation
height for people with impairments / disabilities: 130 cm / 51 in
| Power over Ethernet (PoE) Switch
---|---
| Router with High-speed Internet, DHCP
| Separate power supply 15 V DC, 1 A
| Separate power supply 12 V DC, 1 A
| Network cable
| 2-wire-cable
The mounting bracket may be used in connection with a standard
68 mm (2.68 in) hollow-wall box, which means you do not have to drill separate
holes into the wall: You can use the existing screw holes of the hollow-wall
box and skip STEP 4.
If there is no hollow-wall box at the assembly location:
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.
As an alternative to wall mounting, you can also mount the device on a table
stand (DoorBird A8003 Table Stand for IP Video Indoor Station A1101).
**DOWELS
**
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 you must drill holes in a wall, insert screws into a wall or lever up a
wall, ensure that no cables or mains (gas, water, etc.) are to be found in the
wall.
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.
NETWORK CONNECTION OPTIONS
You can connect the device to the network by either using a network cable or a
WiFi 2.4 GHz connection.
OPTION 1
Network cable (recommended, maintenance free)
Install a network cable (which is plugged into a network switch / router with
Internet access) from the inside of your building to the assembly location.
The network cable between the assembly location and the network switch /
router can have a maximum length of 80 m/262 ft (IEEE 802.3). If you must span
a distance of more than 80 meters/262 feet you can put a network switch in-
between.
If you have only two wires available at the assembly location, you may use the
”DoorBird 2-Wire Ethernet PoE Converter A1071“, sold separately. It allows you
to transfer network data (Ethernet) and power (PoE) with a simple two-wire
cable over long distances. For example, existing buildings with a simple two-
wire bell wire can be equipped with network technology without having to
retrofit any network cables.
For reasons of network stability, we principally recommend using a network
cable, as WiFi is sensitive to interference (range, house walls acting as
shields, reliability of performance, third party WiFi networks, wireless
transmitters causing interference in the area, etc.).
When using WiFi please make sure you have a good WiFi signal at the assembly
location of the device. You can increase the WiFi signal by using so called
”WiFi repeaters“, which can boost your WiFi signal. You should install such a
WiFi repeater close to the assembly location of the device, typically inside
your home and close to the device.
PREPARE POWER SUPPLY
The device does not have a battery as power supply, therefore, choose one of
the following options.
OPTION 1
Power supply using the power supply unit (mains adaptor)
To power the device using the provided mains adapter, 2 insulated wires are
required. The power supply unit has a 300 cm (9.8 ft) long cable with two
insulated wires. The network connection is then established via a network
cable or alternatively via WiFi.
The provided mains adaptor is only capable to power one device. It is not
designed to power multiple devices simultaneously.
If you must power more than one device with one power supply, we recommend to
use a PoE-Switch with PoE Standard IEEE 802.3af Mode A or an appropriate DIN
rail power supply (see “OPTION 3”).
Do not plug the power supply unit into the wall socket yet.
Only use the power supply unit (see “OPTION 3”) provided along with the
device, or a DIN-rail power supply unit that you can obtain from us
separately, since this has been specially stabilized electrically and is
equipped with an integrated audio interference reduction device. Other power
supply units may destroy the device or cause poor transmission quality. The
warranty automatically expires if you use a different power supply unit.
The power supply unit is plugged into a wall socket inside your house (Step
10), usually where the two wires from your assembly location come out of the
wall in the interior of the house.
The provided mains adapter is not outdoor-ready, it is for indoor-use only.
OPTION 2
Power supply and network connection using PoE (Power over Ethernet)
To power the device via a PoE-Switch (e.g. D-Link DGS-1008P) or PoE-Injector
(e.g. DoorBird Gigabit PoE Injector A1091), use a CAT.5 cable or higher in
accordance with the PoE standard IEEE 802.3af Mode
A CAT.5 cable or higher must be used for this purpose, as network signals can
only be transmitted over completely insulated, shielded and twisted cables. If
you use PoE as a source of power, the four wires for PoE then simultaneously
form the data line. The device will not start if your PoE-Switch/PoE-Injector
does not support the PoE standard EEE 802.3af Mode Please check
www.doorbird.com/poe for known
incompatibilities.
If you must power more than one device with one power supply, we recommend to
use a PoE-Switch with PoE Standard IEEE 802.3af Mode A or an appropriate DIN
rail power supply (see “OPTION 3”).
Theoretically (not recommended by us!), an unshielded, but over the whole
length (max. 80 m/262 ft) twisted bell wire with two pairs of wires (first
twisted pair of wires: ”T+, T-“, second twisted pair of wires ”R+, R-“) can be
used for the network and PoE transmission as an alternative to a Cat.5 network
cable or better. This is comparable to a Cat.3 network cable. In this case,
however, we cannot guarantee the data throughput or the stability of the
network connection and power supply; this must be measured and checked on site
by qualified personnel over several hours (network data is transmitted at high
frequency, therefore a shielded Cat.5 network cable twisted in pairs or better
must normally be used).
Do not combine the power supply from the power supply unit (mains adaptor)
with the power supply via PoE.
You can find further information about PoE here:
www.doorbird.com/poe
- Disconnect the PoE-Switch or PoE-Injector from the power grid.
- Place the network cable in the installation site of the device.
OPTION 3
Power supply using a DIN rail power supply unit
Alternatively to the mains adapter, we offer DIN rail power supplies in our
online shop, which can be installed by a specialist. The network connection is
then made via a network cable or alternatively via WiFi.
If you must power more than one device with one power supply, we recommend to
use a PoE-Switch with PoE Standard IEEE 802.3af Mode A or an appropriate DIN
rail
power supply.
Planning information to power multiple devices with a single DIN rail power
supply unit
You must plan the cabling for the DIN rail power supply of the devices
carefully, if you want to install more than one device in your building with a
single DIN rail power supply unit.
The device has a power consumption of 5 Watt and an input voltage range from
15 to 48 VDC.
Each cable / wire has a specific load limit and loop resistance and power
loss for physical reasons. The planning of the cabling, maximum number of
devices and power supply depends on this. The following information will help
you to plan the power supply installation in the building.
Please calculate the maximum number of devices and the power supply carefully,
matching to the wire diameter and cable length. Wrong calculation and
installation can lead to overheating, damage, electrical short and fire.
**** The wire diameter is the inner metal core only, not the inner metal core
plus the jacket.
Often more than two wires are available on-site for the connection of an
indoor station. The maximum current can be doubled to increase the maximum
number of installable devices by using two wires for one core. In this case,
the two wires must be twisted at both ends. The applied voltage must not
exceed 48 VDC.
If shielded cables are used, the shielding should be connected to each other.
INFORMATION FOR PLANNERS OF NEW BUILDINGS
If you know how many devices must be installed and you know the length of the
cables, you can check the following chart to see which wire diameter is
required.
The following scenario is calculated and visualized in a chart under the
worst-case scenario that all devices are connected to the rearmost end of
cable in the building. In
practice, the devices are distributed more or less evenly over the cable
length / floors.
INFORMATION FOR PLANNERS OF EXISTING BUILDINGS
The length of the cables in existing buildings is often unknown and can only
be roughly estimated. The diameter of the wires and the loop resistance (ohm)
are known or at least easy measurable. This makes it possible to determine the
maximum number of devices that can be connected to a single wire pair.
The following scenario is calculated and visualized in a chart under the
worst-case scenario that all devices are connected to the rearmost end of
cable in the building. In
practice, the devices are distributed more or less evenly over the cable
length / floors.
The loop resistance can easily be measured by switching off the power supply on the wires to be measured and applying a short-circuit to the lines to be measured on one side and measuring the resistance on the other side of the wires with a multimeter.
ASSEMBLE THE MOUNTING BRACKET
Lead all cables and wires you want to connect to the device through the mounting bracket. Screw the mounting bracket to the wall.
CONNECTING THE DEVICE
It is possible to connect the cables and wires to the device conveniently and
safely via the labelled screw connection terminal. You can connect all
necessary cables and wires to the device now.
For easier installation we strongly recommend to remove the plug from screw
connection terminal while you connect the cables and wires.
Please remove any cables and wires from the connection ports of the device
that you do not need.

TROUBLESHOOTING
The device does not power up
If the device is to be supplied with power by a mains adapter, plug the power
adapter of the device into a wall socket. If the power adapter was already
plugged into a wall socket, check if the cables and wires are correctly
connected to the screw connection terminal. In most cases, removing the cable
and wires from the screw connection terminal plug and reconnecting them to the
screw connection terminal plug helps (loose contact). If you are powering more
than one device simultanously with one mains adapter, check if the mains
adapter is able to deliver enough power over the full cable length.
If the device is to be powered via PoE, switch on the PoE-Switch/ PoE-Injector
which is connected to the device. If the PoE-Switch/ PoE-Injector was already
switched on, check if the cables and wires are correctly connected screw
connection terminal. In most cases, removing the cable and wires from the
screw connection terminal plug and reconnecting them to the screw connection
terminal plug helps (loose contact). If the problem still exists, please check
if your PoE-Switch / PoE Injector supports the PoE Standard IEEE 802.3af Mode
A, see also www.doorbird.com/poe
If the device is to be supplied with power by a DIN-rail power supply, switch
on the DIN-rail power supply If the DIN-rail power supply was already switched
on, check if the cables and wires are correctly connected to the screw
connection terminal. In most cases, removing the cable and wires from the
screw connection terminal plug and reconnecting them to the screw connection
terminal plug helps (loose contact). If you are powering more than one device
simultaneously with one DIN-rail power supply, check if the DIN-rail power
supply is able to deliver enough power over the full cable length.
The device does not connect to network via WiFi (”No Network“ diagnosis sound)
In most cases, your WiFi signal is weak. Please perform the WiFi Setup again
using the DoorBird App.
You can increase the WiFi signal by using so called ”WiFi repeaters“, which
can boost your WiFi signal. You should install such a WiFi repeater close to
the assembly location of the device, typically inside your home and close to
the device.
If the problem still exists, please check if your WiFi Router / WiFi Access
Point does not block device, e.g. through a MAC address filter.
If the problem still exists, please check if your WiFi Router / WiFi Access
Point has DHCP turned on and is able to assign an IP address to the device.
The device does not connect to network via network cable (”No Network“
diagnosis sound)
In most cases, removing the cable and wires from the screw connection terminal
plug and reconnecting them to the screw connection terminal plug helps (loose
contact).
If the problem still exists, please check if the network cable is properly
connected to your router / switch and the network cable is not broken.
If the problem still exists, please check if your Router has DHCP turned on
and is able to assign an IP address to the device.
The device does not connect to Internet (”No Internet“ diagnosis sound) In
most cases, your Internet is down or your router blocks Internet access for
the device.

Data privacy and data security
- 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.
- 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.
- 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

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 customer-specific 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.
