Step 1: Switching off power
Switch
off
the
power
to
all
wires
leading
to
the
installation
place,
i.e.
power
supply
unit
for
the
BirdGuard etc..
Step 3: Determining the assembly location
The BirdGuard uses an ultra wide-angle hemispheric lens so that even when the person is a minimum
distance
of
50
cm
away
from
the
BirdGuard,
a
low
installation
height
is
sufficient.
The
lens
is
therefore
not
mechanically
adjustable.
For
persons
of
up
to
175
cm
(5'9")
in
height,
a
minimum
installation
height
(lower
edge
of
the
BirdGuard)
of
at
least
115
cm
(3'9.3"),
for
taller
persons
a
minimum installation height of at least 125 cm (4'1.2") is recommended. You may check this prior to
the
final
mounting.
(Optional) Press
the
mounting
stand against
the wall
at the
desired installation
site and mark the boreholes with a pencil. Remove the mounting stand again. Ensure that no cables
are to be found in the wall behind the boreholes.
Step 4: Power supply
The
BirdGuard
can
be
powered
by
two
simple
doorbell
wires
using
the
power-supply
unit
(mains
adaptor) supplied with it or via PoE (Power over Ethernet) using a network cable..
The
BirdGuard
does
not
use
battery
power.
The
use
of
a
mains
power
supply
permits
the
transmission
and
display
of
on-demand
live
video
at
any
time
and
not
only
if
an
alarm
event
is
present.
Power supply using the power-supply unit (mains adaptor)
Two insulated wires are required to power the BirdGuard by plugging it into the mains. Only use the
power
supply
unit
provided
along
with
the
BirdGuard,
since
this
has
been
specially
stabilized
electrically
and
is
equipped
with
an
integrated
audio
interference
reduction
device.
Other
power
supply
units
may
destroy
the
BirdGuard
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, usually where the two wires
for the power-supply of
the BirdGuard
come out of the wall in the interior of the house.
Do not plug the power supply unit into the wall socket yet. Connect the power supply unit inside the
house with the crimp connector provided and the two wires that you would like to use to power the
device.
