SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read the safety instructions and the operating instructions carefully before installing the
product. Depending on the product type, individual points may be omitted.
Mounting & Installation
• Ensure that the intended mounting location is suitable for the respective product (e.g. in terms of weight).
• Securely fasten the products to the locations and surfaces recommended by the manufacturer to ensure
stability and safety.
• Ensure that the products are weatherproof when installed outdoors, e.g. protect cameras from direct sunlight or
extreme temperatures.
• Make sure that any ventilation slots are not blocked to ensure sufficient air circulation and cooling.
• Make sure that cameras, switches, etc. are installed with sufficient safety distance to flammable materials, power
sources, running water, etc.
• Assembly, commissioning and maintenance may only be carried out by authorized specialist personnel in
compliance with the relevant standards and guidelines.
Power supply & wiring
• To ensure a safe power supply, use only power supplies and cables recommended by the manufacturer.
• Make sure that the cables are properly routed and protected from tampering and damage (e.g. kinking) to avoid
power failures or short circuits (e.g. due to moisture ingress).
• Make sure that the cables are not routed through doors, windows or other moving parts to avoid damage and
tripping hazards.
• To disconnect the system from the power supply, pull the cable only by the plug and never directly by the cable.
• When shortening flexible connection cables, use wire end ferrules.
Security
• Use strong passwords for all cameras and devices to prevent unauthorized access.
• Keep device firmware up to date to minimize security vulnerabilities.
• Protect (remote) access to the devices using secure methods such as encrypted connections or VPN.
