3. Do not submerge the device in liquid or attempt to clean it with liquids or solvents. To clean the device, disconnect from
the power outlet and use a damp towel.
Before you Begin
Plan the location of your camera:

2. Connect the camera's power adapter into electrical outlets that are not controlled by a wall switch. This will help you to avoid
accidentally turning o power to the device.
3. Be sure to plug the power cables into properly grounded electrical outlets in order to help prevent against electrical shock.

Wireless Installation Considerations
The D-Link wireless router lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the operating range of your
wireless network. Keep in mind that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass
through may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or
business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link router and other network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling
can reduce your adapter’s range from 1 to 30 meters (3 to 90 feet). Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is
minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 0.5 meters (1.5 feet) thick, at a 45-degree angle appears to be
almost 1 meter (3 feet) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 14 meters (42 feet) thick! Position devices so that the signal will
travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
3. Building materials make a dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative eect on range. Try to position
access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials and objects
such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh tanks), mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your
wireless signal.
4. Keep your product away at least 1 to 2 meters (3 to 6 feet) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such as ceiling fans, lights, and home security systems), your
wireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4 GHz phone base is as far away from your
wireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone is not in use.

Getting Started
Mounting the Camera
Step 1
Place the baseplate at the desired location, assuring that it is at least 20cm from the ceiling. Make
sure the screw is facing up and the holes are level. Use a pencil to mark the holes.
Step 2
Using a 6.35 mm drill bit, drill two 25 mm deep holes over the pencil marks. For a plaster, drywall,
or concrete wall, insert the plastic anchors to support the screws rst.

Step 3
Place the baseplate over the holes. Use the supplied screws to attach the baseplate to the wall.
