ErP Announcement

Product: Internet Camera (IP Camera) Purpose: 24 hour surveillance and transfer of footage for safety and health

reasons as intented use.

Detailed description:

- Health purposes: Users can pass through the Internet (from anywhere) to control the product (IP Camera). It's intended to watch and listen to people who need to be cared for at home and automatically sends e-mails and phone alerts to warn observers and ask for their attention. The product also provides a record function to retain all images and voice information for the sake of reference.

- Safety purposes: Users can initiate a “motion detect” function to record and send e-mails to notify them when doors or windows are opened – potentially by unwarranted persons.

- General purposes: Record/monitor environment footage and sound and store them onto a hard disk as a record.

As we cannot predict when events of this nature may occur, we need for the product to remain active and alert at all times. If the product had to go into

“standby/off” mode, it would impact the effectiveness of recording and warning

functions resulting in users not getting the information they need.

Based on the ErP official journal of European Union

Directives 2009/125/CE of the European parliament and of the council of

21 October 2009 Article 15 sector 5 part (a) and (b) as below:

“Implementing measures shall have no significant negative impact on the

functionality of the product, from the perspective of the user.” “Health, safety and environment shall not be adversely affected.”

We announce that the product need not comply with the (EC) No 1275 Standby and on/off mode function of Implementing Measurement.

We will keep up to the newest Implementing Measurements in the future and make the necessary changes if it's related to this product.
