They should not be connected at any point or become connected as a result of a malfunction.

Care and maintenance Maintenance is necessary if the device has been damaged (e.g. damage to the power cable and plug, or the housing), or if liquids or foreign bodies have got into the interior of the device, or if it has been exposed to rain or damp, or if it does not work properly or has been dropped.

Maintenance • If smoke, unusual noises or smells develop, switch the device off immediately and unplug from

the socket. In such cases, the device should not be used until it has been inspected by a qualified technician.

• Have all maintenance tasks carried out by qualified technicians only. • Never open the housing on the device or accessories unless this is necessary. As there is

always a risk to life due to electric shock when the housing is open, only open the housing when the device is disconnected from the power source. With some devices, opening the device is unavoidable and permitted for the following purposes:

• Installing the device • Inserting a storage medium (SD card or hard disk drive) • Accessing essential functions (reset button or WPS button)

Cleaning • Only clean the device housing with a damp cloth. • Do not use solvents, white spirit, thinners etc., or any of the following substances:

*Note If the connection to your camera is always made via the relay server, please check the following settings:

• Check whether UPnP is enabled in your router • Check whether a hardware firewall or a software firewall is stopping a direct

connection • Check whether multiple 'hops' (router) are installed between the end device and

the internet.

11.4. Motion detection settings Detection mode: Off / Software / PIR

You can change the detection mode here. If it is switched off, no recording or notification will take place if motion is detected. The choice between Software and PIR detection modes is only available if your camera has an integrated PIR sensor.

Information about the use of software detection The camera will detect differences in light between the individual pixels if software detection is in use. Please note that accidental deployment may occur if the camera is orientated towards a scene with fluctuations in light as standard (e.g. sunlight through a window).

Information about the use of PIR detection The camera detects differences in temperature using the integrated passive infrared sensor (PIR). Please note that accidental deployment may occur if the camera is orientated towards a scene with fluctuations in temperature as standard (e.g. windows, radiators, larger metal objects).

Sensitivity: You can change the sensitivity of the software detection for day

and night here. A high value will lead to detection in the event of minor changes, and a low value will trigger only in the event of more major changes to the camera image.

Motion screen: If you have enabled software detection, you can exclude

individual image sectors from the detection. Click the desired image sectors to do this. If the sector is black, no motion will be detected here.

11.5. Notification settings Notification: You can enable or disable push notifications here. Language notification: You can change the language of the push notifications here. Email: You can enter the email sender and receiver data here to set
