1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 The MOBOTIX Concept

Megapixel Technology with Zoom, Tilt and Panning

With its high resolution of 1.3 M pixels and its true color imaging
system, the MOBOTIX camera attains a resolution that is twelve times as high as
on analog video systems that are commonly using CIF format. MOBOTIX also sup­ports three digital zoom levels, tilting and panning.

Low Bandwidth Requirements

MOBOTIX' patent pending MxPEG streaming format allows fast live video with
audio at extremely low network load (1 to 2 Mbps). Since the MOBOTIX camera
itself detects movements in the image, video is only transmitted if movements
occur and the video and audio data need to be stored.

Voice over IP and ISDN

MOBOTIX MxPEG video streaming format includes realtime audio and intercom
features. Room surveillance with audio is possible using Internet Explorer. Alarm
notification on your mobile is as easy as event-controlled voice messages directly
from the camera.

Long-Term Storage Included

MOBOTIX cameras have an integrated long-term storage system for Linux, Win­dows and Mac OS X computers. Thanks to the decentralized approach, 30 live
cameras can store images on a regular Pentium 4-class computer with 25 fps

each, including audio (these values may vary with the operating system).

30 Live Cameras Using MxViewer

The free Windows application for viewing up to 30 MOBOTIX cameras with audio
now features an integrated layout editor for quick assembly of building
plans—using full drag&drop support for positioning the live camera images. Load
a floor plan as background image, drag&drop the cameras—done.

Event or Time-controlled

Just like event-controlled recording upon detecting movements in the image, the
camera can also record when the volume picked up by the microphone exceeds a
set trigger value. Using scheduled recording, time tasks can start and stop record­ing, uploading of images to a web site or sending of e-mails while running special
programs on weekends and holidays.

Remote Alert Popup

In case of an alarm, MOBOTIX cameras automatically pop up windows or activate
other functions at a remote security control center. The cameras can use network,
ISDN or Internet connections for this purpose.

M10 Camera Manual Part 1

Day & Night

The MOBOTIX/Night models with two image sensors (color and B/W) deliver bril­liant color images during the day and crisp B/W images at night. Depending on the
illumination, the cameras switch lenses automatically.

Weatherproof

MOBOTIX cameras (Outdoor models) are certified according to IP65 and are
designed for outdoor as well as indoor usage. As the cameras do not have any
moving parts, they are extremely robust and resistant against heat or cold (-30°F to
+60°C; -22°F to +140°F).

Secure and Flexible Installation Using the SecureFlex Wall Mount

The SecureFlex wall mount provides for easy mounting of the
Outdoor models to a wall or a ceiling and also allows pointing
the camera into virtually any direction. The concealed
cabling improves security; it covers RJ45 wall outlets and
enhances the visual impression of the installation. The
SecureFlex wall mount is a standard accessory of all Secure
Outdoor models and available as optional accessory for all
other M10 Outdoor models.

Logos, Animated or Freestyle

The Logo generator of the MOBOTIX camera allows integrating different banners
and graphics into the current camera images—with optional scheduler control.
MOBOTIX cameras are the only cameras supporting animated and transparent
graphics.

1.4 Important Notes

1.4.1 Password for the Administration Menu

The administration area of the camera (Admin Menu button) is protected by a user
name and password:

• User name is admin

• Password is meinsm

Enter the user name and password exactly as shown above. Note that both entries
are case-sensitive. When accessing the administration menu for the first time, the
Quick Installation wizard will help you set the most important parameters that are
relevant for your requirements. For security reasons, it is highly recommended to

change the adminstrator password after the camera has been configured
properly.

1.4.2 Password for ISDN Dial-In

Dialing into the camera via ISDN is protected by a separate password. When set­ting up a dial-in connection from a computer, you need to provide this information:

• User name is linux

• Password is tux

Enter the user name and password exactly as shown above. Note that both entries
are case-sensitive.

1.4.3 Permanently Deactivating the Microphone

Deactivating a camera's microphone may become necessary in order to protect
the privacy of people at a workplace or for other reasons. You can permanently
and irreversibly deactivate the microphone in the Admin Menu > Loudspeaker

and Microphone dialog.

M10 Camera Manual Part 1

Administration menu:
User: admin
Password: meinsm

ISDN Dial-in
User: linux
Password: tux

CAUTION: Make sure that you store information on user names
and passwords in a secure place. In case you loose the
administrator password and cannot access the Admin menu, the
password can only be reset at the factory. This service is not free!

CAUTION: This deactivation is permanent and cannot be reversed
even by MOBOTIX engineers. Deactivating the microphone will
also deactivate all features that use the camera's microphone.

1.4.4 Starting the Camera Using the Factory IP Address

If the camera's IP address is not known any more, you can start the camera with its
factory IP address. Section 3.6,

Starting the Camera Using the Factory IP Address

,

describes this procedure in more detail.

1.4.5 Resetting the Camera to Factory Defaults

All settings of the MOBOTIX camera can be reset permanently to the factory default
settings. This makes sense if you have, for example, obtained a camera without
any information or you would like to reset all settings after testing the camera. In
order to perform this procedure, you need to have access to the administration
area of the camera (Admin rights). Open Admin Menu > Reset … to reset the
camera to factory defaults.

Note: In contrast to the method described in section 1.4.4,

Starting the Camera

Using the Factory IP Address

, all users (except the admin user) will be deleted
when resetting the camera to factory defaults. Likewise, the admin user's pass­word will be reset.

1.4.6 Activating Event Control for Security Applications

In its default state, the camera's event control and video motion detection features
are not enabled. In order to activate event control as a whole, open Setup

Menu > General Event Settings and activate the Arming switch or click on the
Arm & Record softbutton of the browser interface. The video motion detection win-

dow is visible again (dotted frame in the center of the live image) and the camera
stores images as soon as the video motion window detects movements.

1.4.7 Deactivating Text and Logo Options

As the camera arming has been deactivated as per factory default (see preceding
section), the MOBOTIX camera only displays the Text WWW.MOBOTIX.COM, the
time stamp and the MOBOTIX logo at the top of the image. Once the camera arm­ing has been activated, the texts at the bottom of the live image (event, action and
messaging symbols) will also appear.

If the camera is armed, you can deactivate the status text at the bottom and the
text at the top left corner of the live image by setting Text Display in the Setup
Menu > Text & Display Settings dialog to

Off

. Setting Text Display to

Date & Time

will only display the time stamp in the live image. In order to hide the logo in the
live image, open Admin Menu > Logo Profiles and set Logo Display to

Disable

.

1.4.8 Deactivating the Daily Reboot of the Camera

In its factory state, the MOBOTIX camera will automatically reboot every morning at
3:36 am. In very rare cases, external influences (e.g. radiation in high locations)
can lead to camera malfunctions. The automatic reboot will refresh the camera's
memory and will ensure proper operation without requiring any interaction on the
part of the user.

1.4.9 ISDN Compatibility Note

This product is compatible with Euro ISDN standard TBR3/TBR 3A1.

Note: MOBOTIX offers special models for the Japanese market that support the

Japanese ISDN standard. For additional information on this topic, see the Japanese
section at www.mobotix.com.

1.4.10Browser Hints

Current browsers with activated JavaScript (Internet Explorer, Netscape, Mozilla,
Firefox, Safari, Konqueror, Opera, …) can show the camera's live images with their
standard settings. Text-based browsers (e.g. lynx) cannot display the user interface
and are

not

suitable for operating the camera.

Section 4.8,

Browser Settings

, contains more information on browser compatibility.

Chapter 12,

Troubleshooting

, contains more information on how to track and

remove errors when operating the camera.

1.4.11 Safety Notes for Operating MOBOTIX Cameras

Electrical surges can be induced by other electrical appliances, improper wiring,
but also from the outside (e.g. lightning strikes in phone or power lines).

MOBOTIX cameras are protected against small electrical surges by numerous
measures. These measures, however, cannot prevent the camera from being
damaged when stronger electrical surges occur.

Special care should be taken when installing the camera outside of buildings for

protection against lightning, since this also protects the building and the whole

network infrastructure.

MOBOTIX recommends having MOBOTIX cameras installed only by specialists
accustomed to installing network devices and having proper respect for the perti­nent regulations regarding lightning protection and fire prevention as well as the
current technology for preventing damages from electrical surges.

Section 2.10,

Wiring, Fire Prevention, Lightning and Surge Protection

, contains more

information on these topics.
