Note 1: If mounting the camera on a window, clean the area of the window where the suction cup will be
attached. Let the area dry completely before mounting the camera.
Note 2: The Window Mount Suction Cup has been tested and proven to hold the weight of objects
heavier than the camera for extended periods. To increase the suction power of the cup, spread a small
drop of vegetable or olive oil on the underside of the cup before applying it to the window.
b. Plug the Camera Power Supply into a nearby outlet.
Use the included Camera Cable (8 ft. standard Ethernet cable) to connect the power supply to the
camera.
Note: The Camera Power Supply has built-in surge protection and must be plugged directly into your wall
outlet. Plugging the Camera Power Supply into a surge-protected power strip may reduce the quality and
performance of the LukWerks system.
STEP 2 – IDENTIFY THE NEW CAMERA IN WERKS
There are two choices of setup described: a and b. So, read both before moving on with the procedure:
a. If you did NOT set a custom password
If you have NOT set a custom camera password, then you do not need to do anything more. Werks will
automatically recognize the camera within 1-2 minutes.
Once the camera appears, you can change its configuration, set a name, or adjust the picture options.
(See the chapter on Setting System Options for information on these settings.)
b. If you did set a custom password
If you HAVE set a custom camera password, you need to complete a few additional tasks. This is
necessary because new cameras are shipped with a no password. Therefore, Werks will not
automatically identify it.
Follow these instructions to include the new camera into your Werks system:
1) Go to the Werks > Setup > Advanced dialog screen.
2) Click the Add New camera button.
3) Wait 1-2 minutes while Werks locates the camera.
If after a few minutes, Werks does not recognize the camera, turn to the Specifications chapter
located in the online user guide or at www.lukwerks.com/support.
Note: We recommend that you set a custom password because a custom camera password provides
you with security from others having access to your streaming video.
If you receive a camera from a friend or as a used item, it may have a password stored on its power supply.
This will prevent you from linking with the camera. To remove the password, power up the camera and wait
until the camera’s top two green status lights are flashing. Then with a paperclip, gently press the reset button
hidden below the reset hole near the Ethernet cable plug.
After the camera resets, it will have no password. If necessary, you may need to repeat the steps above to
connect the camera.
