Proper Disposal of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE)
The European Union (EU) has enacted Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive 2012/19/EU (WEEE), which aims to prevent EEE waste from arising; to encourage reuse, recycling, and recovery of EEE waste; and to promote environmental responsibility.
In accordance with these regulations, all EEE products labeled with the “crossed out wheeled bin” either on the product itself or in the product literature must not be
disposed of in regular rubbish bins, mixed with regular household or other commercial waste, or by other regular municipal waste collection means. Instead, and in order to prevent possible harm to the environment or human health, all EEE products (including any cables that came with the product) should be responsibly discarded or recycled.
To identify a responsible disposal method nearby, please contact the local waste collection or recycling service, the original place of purchase or product supplier, or the responsible government authority in the area. Business users should contact their supplier or refer to their purchase contract.

Document Scope and Purpose
Caution: To avoid damage from overheating or unit failure, assure that there is sufficient temperature regulation to support the unit’s requirements (cooling/heating). Operating temperature should be kept in the range --20° to 50°C (-4° to 122°F), with no more than 90% non-condensing humidity.
Attention:
Afin d'éviter tout dommage dû à une surchauffe ou toute panne de l'unité, assurez-vous que la régulation de température est suffisante pour répondre aux exigences de l'unité (refroidissement/chauffage). La température de fonctionnement doit être maintenue dans la plage (-20° à 50°C/-4° à 122°F), sans condensation d'humidité supérieur à 90%.
Site Preparation
There are several requirements that should be properly addressed prior to installation at the site. The following specifications are requirements for proper installation and operation of the unit:
·
Ambient Environment Conditions: Avoid positioning the unit near heaters or heating system outputs. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight. Use proper maintenance to ensure that the unit is free from dust, dirt, smoke, particles, chemicals, smoke, water or water condensation, and exposure to EMI.
·
Accessibility: The location used should allow easy access to unit connections and cables.
·
Safety: Cables and electrical cords should be routed in a manner that prevents safety hazards, such as from tripping, wire fraying, overheating, etc. Ensure that nothing rests on the unit’s cables or power cords.
·
Ample Air Circulation: Leave enough space around the unit to allow free air circulation.
·
Cabling Considerations: Units should be placed in locations that are optimal for the type of video cabling used between the unit and the cameras and external devices. Using a cable longer than the manufacturer’s specifications for optimal video signal may result in degradation of color and video parameters.
·
Physical Security: The unit provides threat detection for physical security systems. In order to ensure that the unit cannot be disabled or tampered with, the system should be installed with security measures regarding physical access by trusted and un-trusted parties.
·
Network Security: The unit transmits over IP to security personnel for video surveillance. Proper network security measures should be in place to assure networks remain operating and free from malicious interference. Install the unit on the backbone of a trusted network.
·
Electrostatic Safeguards: The unit and other equipment connected to it (relay outputs, alarm inputs, racks, carpeting, etc.) shall be properly grounded to prevent electrostatic discharge.
The physical installation of the unit is the first phase of making the unit operational in a security plan. The goal is to physically place the unit, connect it to other devices in the system, and to establish network connectivity. When finished with the physical installation, complete the second phase of installation, which is the setup and configuration of the unit.

Configuring Communication Settings
4.1 Connecting the Camera to the Network
To view and configure the camera via a LAN, you must attach the camera via the network switch or router to the same subnet (network segment or VLAN) as the computer that manages the unit. If the PC is on a different subnet than the camera, you will not be able to access the camera via a web browser.
If there is a DHCP server on the network, it is recommended to use FLIR’s Discovery Network Assistant (DNA) utility to search for and change the camera’s initial IP address. If there is no DHCP server on the network, the camera will initialize with the default IP (192.168.0.250). You can then use DNA to change its IP address.
4.2 Using DNA to Access the Camera
To view and configure the camera via a LAN, you must attach the camera via the network switch or router to the same subnet (network segment or VLAN) as the computer that manages the unit. If the PC is on a different subnet than the camera, you will not be able to access the camera via a web browser.
If there is a DHCP server on the network, it is recommended to use FLIR’s Discovery Network Assistant (DNA) utility to search for and change the camera’s initial IP address.
See Accessing Camera Information from the Web DNA is a user-friendly utility that is designed to easily discover and configure FLIR Professional Security
edge devices on a network. The DNA tool has a simple user interface and does not require any installation. The software is provided as a single, standalone executable. It runs on any PC. See Accessing Camera Information from the Web
DNA provides a central location for listing all the supported FLIR Professional Security camera models accessible over the network. Once listed, each camera can be right-clicked to access and change the network settings. If the network settings are changed for some reason, a new search will relist the units. The units may then be configured via the web interface.
If FLIR’s Latitude VMS is being used, configure the unit with a static IP address rather than with DHCP. This ensures that the IP address will not automatically change in the future and interfere with configurations and communication.
If there is no DHCP server on the network, the camera will initialize with the default IP (192.168.0.250). You can then use DNA to change its IP address.
