Introduction
The Nokia Observation Camera is a remote imaging device with a motion detector, thermometer, and
microphone. With the camera you can capture images remotely and send them to your multimedia
messaging (MMS) enabled mobile phone with a colour display, or to an e-mail address. You can control
and configure the camera with short messages (SMS), and the PC Suite for Nokia Observation Camera
software is provided for more advanced functions.
Note: National laws and regulations may place restrictions on recording images and regarding
further processing and use of such data. Do not use this feature illegally. Honour the privacy
and other legitimate rights of others and obey all laws governing, for example, data protection,
privacy, and publicity.
Note: The images and messages sent from the camera will be charged to the subscription of the
SIM card in the camera.
The Nokia Observation Camera is approved for use on the GSM 900/1800 network.
To use the Nokia Observation Camera, you need:
• a GPRS enabled mobile subscription with a SIM card and MMS service.
• an MMS and SMS enabled mobile phone with a colour display
• GSM network coverage in the camera premises
• an available e-mail address if you want to receive images to your e-mail.
Note: Check how large MMS messages your mobile phone is capable of receiving. Your network
operator may also restrict the size of MMS messages. Ask your network operator for details.

Before you can use any of these network services, you must subscribe to them through your service
provider and obtain instructions for their use from your service provider.
Note: Some networks may not support all language-dependent characters and/or services.
Note: For availability, rates, and information on using SIM services, contact your SIM card
vendor, e.g. network operator, service provider, or other vendor.
Note: The MMS function can be used only if it is supported by your network operator or service
provider. Only devices that offer compatible multimedia message or e-mail features can receive
and display multimedia messages.
Important: Multimedia message objects may contain viruses or otherwise be harmful to your
phone or PC. Do not open any attachment if you are not sure of the trustworthiness of the
sender.
The default setting of the multimedia message service is on ("Allow multimedia reception" is set
"Yes"), and your operator or service provider may charge you for every message you receive.
Warning: Use only power source ACW-6 and enhancements approved by the camera
manufacturer for use with this particular camera model. The use of any other types may
invalidate any approval or warranty applying to the camera, and may be dangerous.
For availability of approved enhancements, please check with your dealer.
When you disconnect the power cord of any enhancement, grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.
Warning: Do not switch the camera on when wireless phone use is prohibited or when it may
cause interference or danger.

Using motion detection
To start motion detection, press the motion detection button on the camera (see Figure 1 on page 4).
Note: You have 60 seconds to leave the premises before motion detection starts.
You can also start motion detection by sending the SMS command 2 on [number of image messages
(0-10)] to the Nokia Observation Camera (replace [number of image messages (0-10)] with the number
of motion detection image messages you want the camera to send you), or you can configure the
camera with PC Suite.
Note: If you set 0 as the number of image messages, motion detection remains on until you turn
it off.
When motion detection is on, LED 1 of the camera is red. See Light indicators on page 26. When the
camera detects motion in the coverage area, it captures images and sends the number of image
messages specified in the settings to your mobile phone or e-mail address. Motion detection is then
turned off. If you want to use motion detection again, send the SMS message 2 on [number of image
messages (0-10)] to the Nokia Observation Camera.
Note: Motion detection does not work if there are obstacles, such as windows or walls between
the camera and the target.
Note: The size of the image messages and possible network-related issues may affect the time
in which the image messages are received.
If the camera has detected motion, and you do not want it to send motion detection messages to
anyone, you have 15 seconds to turn off motion detection by pressing the motion detection button on

the camera. You can configure the 15 second delay on the Automatic imaging tab, see page 12. If you
press the motion detection button while the camera is sending an image, the camera sends the image
first and then turns off motion detection.
To turn off motion detection, send the SMS command 2 off to the Nokia Observation Camera.
Using timed imaging
To set the camera to capture images at defined intervals, send the SMS command 4 on hh:mm number
to the Nokia Observation Camera. Replace hh:mm with the desired interval, for example 00:01, if you
want the interval to be one minute, or 01:00, if you want the interval to be one hour. Replace number
with the maximum number (0-10) of timed images you want to receive.
Note:If you set 0 as the number of images, timed imaging remains on until you turn it off.
Note: If you turn timed imaging on with SMS, the images are sent to the master user only.
You can also set timed imaging on with PC Suite. With PC Suite you can also define how many timed
images you want to receive before the timed imaging feature is turned off, see Automatic imaging
tab on page 12.
When you have set timed imaging on, the camera sends you the first image message after the first
interval has passed.
Note: The size of the image messages and possible network-related issues may affect the time
in which the image messages are received.

To check the current temperature in the camera premises, send the SMS command 3 to the Nokia
Observation Camera.
If you want the camera to send you a notification via SMS when the maximum or the minimum
to the Nokia Observation Camera (replace minimum value and maximum value with the desired
values)
Note: After the camera has sent you a notification on the reached temperature, you need to set
the temperature limits again, if you want to continue using this function.
If you want the camera to include temperature in the image messages, see Thermometer tab on page
13.
Using the audio connection
Make a phone call to the Nokia Observation Camera and you can hear the voices in the premises of
the camera. During the call, motion detection is disabled, and SMS commands are put on hold and
executed after the call.

Care and maintenance
The Nokia Observation Camera is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated
with care. The suggestions below will help you to fulfil any warranty obligations and to enjoy this
product for many years.
• Keep the camera and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children.
• Keep the camera dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or moisture can contain
minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
• Do not use or store the camera in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts can be damaged.
• Do not store the camera in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices,
damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store the camera in cold areas. When it warms up (to its normal temperature), moisture can
form inside, which may damage electronic circuit boards.
• Do not attempt to open the camera. Non-expert handling may damage it.
• Do not drop, knock or shake the camera. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the camera.
• Do not paint the camera. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper operation.
• Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised antennas, modifications
or attachments could damage the camera and may violate regulations governing radio devices.

All of the above suggestions apply equally to your camera or any enhancement. If any of them is not
working properly, take it to your nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there will assist you
and, if necessary, arrange for service.

Important safety information
Traffic safety
Don't install the camera in a vehicle. Do not use the camera or your mobile phone to control or configure
the camera while driving; park the vehicle first. Do not place the camera on the passenger seat or where
it can break loose in a collision or sudden stop.
Remember road safety always comes first!
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always switch off your camera
whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or danger.
Use the camera only in its normal operating positions.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your camera.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor
vehicles (e.g. electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid (anti-lock) braking systems,
electronic speed control systems, air bag systems). Check with the manufacturer or its representative
35

regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been
added to your vehicle.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 20 cm (6 inches) be maintained
between a camera and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:
• Should always keep the camera more than 20 cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when the camera
is switched on;
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off your camera imme-
diately.
Hearing aids
Some observation cameras may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference,
you may want to consult your service provider.
Other medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including cameras, may interfere with the
functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of
the medical device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have
any questions. Switch off your camera in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these
areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be
sensitive to external RF energy.

Posted facilities
Switch your camera off in any facility where posted notices so require.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Switch off your camera when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs
and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death.
Users are advised to switch off the camera when at a refuelling point (service station). Users are
reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage
and distribution areas), chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They include
below deck on boats; chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquified petroleum gas
(such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust
or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle
engine.
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to suspension or denial of telephone services to the
offender, or legal action or both.
The Nokia Observation Camera, like any wireless device, operates using radio signals, wireless and
landline networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this, connections in all conditions
cannot be guaranteed. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for essential
communications (e.g. medical emergencies).
