M16 Camera Manual

FOREWORD

Dear MOBOTIX customer,

represents an important milestone in the successful history of MOBOTIX products.

As decentralized complete video systems, MOBOTIX cameras have much more to

oer than conventional network cameras. The M16 features integrated environment

sensors (PIR, outside temperature, motion sensor), speaker and microphone for two-

way video communication based on the SIP standard, long-term memory, free video management soware and a preassembled VarioFlex wall/ceiling mount, in addition to two HiRes image sensors. The weatherproof MxBus and MiniUSB interfaces allow for direct connection of MOBOTIX interface boxes and standard devices such as UMTS modules, additional memory, etc.

With the M16, one or two separate and interchangeable MOBOTIX sensor modules (lens plus sensor board and microphone) are installed in the camera base module M16 Body. The sensor modules can be purchased from tele lens to Hemispheric, each available as day or night models. In addition, the LPF (“Long Pass Filter”) variants of the night models have been designed for special requirements (such as number plate recognition). If the M16 is congured with a Day and a Night sensor module, the camera will automatically switch to the appropriate image sensor depending on the illumination.

The introduction of the newest sensor technology with increased light sensitivity in com bination with the new HD Premium lenses (aperture f/1.8) not only generates more brilliant images with up to 3072x2048, it also delivers color images of higher quality under lowlight conditions.

Congratulations on your decision to purchase the M16, the powerful successor

to the original MOBOTIX M1/M10/M12/M15, proven over one hundred thousand

times. This weatherproof (IP66), versatile, all-round solution “Made in Germany”

The new model variant a high-end thermal imaging sensor, which can reliably detect moving objects even in total darkness. The detecting temperatures in the image or in measurement windows that exceed or drop below the specied temperature.

1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW

1.1 M16 AllroundDual

1.1.1 General Product Characteristics

The HiRes Dual Camera System for All Your Needs

The M16 AllroundDual camera is a well equipped, professional network camera that is top of the MOBOTIX product range, both in terms of functionality and technological capability. The integration of two image sensors and a range of other functions and technical innovations results in unlimited usage possibilities: For video security applications in commercial, private and public sector environments, as a surveillance or weather camera, a webcam, indoors or outdoors, day or night.

Caution:MOBOTIXinUse!

It is clear from the outset that the M16 is an authentic MOBOTIX camera like its predecessor, the M15. It oers special advantages when a security camera looks like the real thing thanks to its unique, striking product design, which has stood for leading video technology and image quality for many years. This is because potential criminals have developed an eye for spotting high-resolution MOBOTIX cameras and will shy away from them when they see one. Even they know these kinds of video cameras can record all activities with an image quality high enough to be used as evidence, and criminals would rather abandon these attempts and concentrate on less secure prospects.

Modular System Setup

A M16 camera consists of three main components:

Housing with integrated camera electronics, ash memory, external ports (Ethernet,

MxBus*, MiniUSB) and pre-installed VarioFlex mount for wall or ceiling mounting. (*Only supported by Mx-M16B variant.)

Front element to hold one or two sensor modules, with microphone, speaker, passive infrared sensor (PIR), outside temperature sensor and status LEDs.

3. One or two sensor modules with lens, image sensor, microphone and status LEDs (microphone and status LEDs are deactivated if attached to a M16). Both the

M16-Thermal

sensor and you can install one additional sensor module.

The housing with VarioFlex mount, connection cable for sensor modules and network and the front element are components of the M16 Body basic module as standard. The sensor modules may be ordered separately and combined freely as desired (for example, Day/ Night, telephoto/wide-angle). The system’s modular design ensures a high level of exibility and ease of repair (for example, replace one sensor module instead of the entire camera).

The Proper Sensor Module for Every Application

All in all, 24 dierent sensor modules are available for the M16: 8 focal lengths, from tele lens to Hemispheric, each available as Day, Night or Night-LPF module for special purposes (e.g. license plate recognition).

Note that the sensor modules are easily exchanged even if the camera has already been installed. The image area captured by the camera varies depending on the focal length of the selected lens. With a Super Wide Angle lens (90° angle of view), for example, almost an entire room can be recorded from one corner. A Tele lens (7° angle of view) enables an M16 to clearly record a license plate number, for example, from a distance of approximately 150 m/500 . Or even the serial number of a bill from a distance of 4 m/12 .

One M16 is usually all that is required to monitor either an entire room or the four lanes of a gas station. The high degree of image detail not only reduces the number of required cameras, but also minimizes system costs by reducing the wiring complexity, emergency power requirements and number of recording devices required.

6-MegapixelImageSensorTechnology

The sensor modules can show live images or store recordings with sizes of up to 3072x2048 (6MP).

*Only supported by Mx-M16B variant

M16 Camera Manual: Product Overview

Can Be Used Day and Night

The advantage of a M16 congured as a day-and-night camera is primarily that it conti nuously uses two sensor modules (one day, one night) rather than relying on a mechanical lter switch, which can be costly to maintain. The MOBOTIX image quality is very good in poor lighting conditions, as the camera uses a real infrared-sensitive, black-and-white image sensor instead of the usual color sensor with electronic color fade-out, whereby the infrared sensitivity is reduced through integrated color lters.

The day and night lenses in the M16 are positioned exactly parallel to one another. This way, the day lens always covers the same area as the night lens.

By design, the D016/N016 sensor modules may display shades from the camera housing or the dome of the other D016/ N016 sensor module.

Hemispheric Day and Night Camera (M16 with D016/N016 Sensor Modules)

Equipped with one B016 sensor module for daylight (D016, color) and one sensor module for night images (N016, Black & White), the M16 is the perfect hemispheric dual camera for applications with a wide range of lighting conditions. Since both sensor modules are always parallel thanks to the design of the M16, you will see the same image as a color image by day and as a Black & White image by night.

Robust and Low-Maintenance

The M16 has been manufactured with the highest level of quality in mind always. Only quality-tested, high-grade materials and components are used. MOBOTIX cameras do not have any mechanical motors to operate the lenses or move the camera, making them so robust that maintenance is reduced to a minimum. Cleaning is simple. You only need to wipe the lens using a so cotton cloth and a mild household detergent without abrasive particles.

Weatherproof–WithoutHeatingorFan

The entire camera plus cables and sensor modules are weatherproof (IP66). Thanks to their low power consumption (less than ve watts) and the total absence of mechani cal moving parts, M16 cameras feature the highest operating temperature range from –40 to 60 °C/–40 to 140 °F (cold start min. temp. –30 °C/–22 °F). Since the cameras neither fog up nor require heating, power can be supplied via the network cabling according to the PoE standard IEEE 802.3af.

Fast,SimpleInstallation

The MOBOTIX M16 requires just one cable for data and power to connect to a PoE switch and thereby to any expandable Ethernet network.

The VarioFlex mount supplied as standard makes the camera ideally suited for outdoor use and for installation over in-wall sockets so that the cabling remains perfectly concealed.

M16 AllroundDual

A number of additional devices can be used. They are connected via a network switch or directly to the camera housing via an MxBus MOBOTIX functional boxes, audio or USB-based storage devices). If the network switch features an Internet connection, it can be used for encrypted access to the camera footage from anywhere in the world.

VirtualPTZ(vPTZ)–Panning,TiltingandZoomingwithNoMotorRequired

The M16 also zooms in on detail. This vPTZ function (virtual Pan, Tilt, Zoom) is a standard feature in the integrated camera soware. The image can be enlarged using, for example, the mouse wheel, a joystick or a soware-controlled PTZ panel, and you can “move” the view to any section of the image. This provides the features of a mechanical PTZ camera without the disadvantages of maintenance and wear.

SimultaneousZoomedLiveImageandFullImageRecording

All standard motorized PTZ cameras only store the image sequence that is currently viewed in the live image (live image recording). This has one serious disadvantage as the recording can only show what has happened in the “visible” portion of the image. The rest is lost and cannot be examined later on. MOBOTIX has hence added the new full image recording feature to the M16. When you activate this feature, the camera will not store the currently viewed image that reects the pan/tilt position and the zoom setting chosen by the user, but the full sensor image – without vPTZ settings. When examining the recorded images at a later date, the vPTZ features again come into play, as they allow you to zoom in on the visible image and use the pan/tilt features to examine ever y corner of the recorded full image.

Internal DVR

The M16 features direct recording to the integrated MicroSD card, which makes the camera fully independent of any external storage media, even for longer periods of time. The camera internally stores high-resolution video, without requiring an external recording device or PC and therefore without creating any network load. Old recordings can be overwritten automatically or automatically deleted aer a specied period of time. When using a 32 GB SD card, for example, the camera can store more than a quarter million event images in VGA format (640x480). If you would like to archive complete sequences or extracts of sequences, you can export the required data to any PC or USB hard drive.

* or MiniUSB cable (for example, ExtIO,

*Only supported by Mx-M16B variant

LowPowerConsumptioninAccordanceWithPoEStandard(IEEE802.3af)

An M16 typically uses 7.5 W, despite the new dual-core technology. Adjusting the PoE class via the camera soware also enables the use of PoE switches that cannot be operated on all ports with PoE class 3 (up to max. 12.95 V). Please note that PoE Class 3 is recommended for the M16, and that the M16-Thermal/M16-Thermal-TR always requires Class 3. Class 3 is also required if you connect MxBus or USB modules to the camera.

Model Variants

1.1.2 Hemispheric Sensor Module

Equipped with the hemispheric B016* sensor module (day or night), an entire room can be ideally monitored using just one M16, which replaces the time-consuming and expensive installation of several standard cameras. The overview image provided by a single M16, which may be tailored in a number of ways according to specic user requirements, mini mizes the system costs by reducing the wiring complexity, emergency power requirements, and number of recording devices required.

High-Resolution Panorama

When several cameras are monitoring a single room, it is diicult to understand the room layout due to the dierent viewing directions of each individual camera. This makes it hard to comprehend the overall setting. The panorama function of the M16 with the B016 sensor module delivers a widescreen, corrected image of a high-resolution 180° allround view.

Optimizing the Panorama Image

The factory setting of an M16 with an B016 sensor module is a high-resolution panorama image, in which parts of the protective cover of the housing are still visible in the upper right and le corners of the image. In order to hide the protective cover, oen all that is required is the “panorama correction” feature that is integrated into the camera soware or MxManagementCenter as standard. Tilted vertical lines (if the camera is mounted at

an angle) may be optically straightened to the image edges using this feature. A welcome side eect of this is that the protective cover disappears from the image.

If this measure does not work in a specic situation (downward camera tilt not possible), the protective cover can be removed from the image by zooming and, if necessary, by panning downward using the virtual functions. The displayed image section or the panorama, as the case may be, is reduced slightly but the image details are enlarged as a result of zooming.

Double Panorama for a Simultaneous View in Two Directions

The “Double Panorama” display mode provides a panorama image of both halves of the surveillance area. Using the vPTZ functions, the panorama images can be changed as desired. The example here shows an overview panorama of the entire room, as well as the entrance, which would have otherwise no longer been visible in the panorama.

Surround View (Quad View)

The M16’s “Surround” display mode delivers four dierent directions “at a glance.” Each of the four views features a soware-controlled pan/tilt/zoom function (virtual PTZ), allowing it to be customized as necessary. In order to facilitate camera operation, the M16 can store a total of 256 user-dened camera views, in addition to the preset standard views.

In addition to the Panorama, Double Panorama, Panorama Focus, and Surround views, the M16 image may be displayed on a monitor as the original sheye version (“Full Image” display mode) or as the camera-corrected image section (“Normal” display mode). Switching to one of the other display modes described is possible at any time.

M16 Camera Manual: Product Overview

1.1.3 Advantages and New Features

The high-resolution M16 AllroundDual is the more powerful successor of the M15 and uses image sensors with 6MP image size. Since the images of a M16 sensor with a maximum size of 3072x2048 can be viewed live or in the recordings, the M16 is clearly superior to its predecessor in terms of image quality and frame rate.

Conclusive Still Images

Thanks to the proprietary MxPEG video codec developed exclusively for MOBOTIX cameras, the cameras oer the advantage that a recording can be paused at any given point and still provide meaningful and useful snapshots due to the absence of distortion. This is essential for security applications and allows individuals or license plates to be identied, for example. In contrast, the H.264 standard, which was developed for feature movies and is favored by some video security providers, cannot achieve this with the required level of quality.

Good Color Images Even in Low Light

The more light-sensitive an image sensor is, the better the image quality, especially when the ambient light level is low, such as at dusk and in heavy rainfall. The M16 oers the best MOBOTIX image quality that is currently available thanks to the light sensitivity provided by the 6-megapixel color sensor.

Black&WhiteImagesWithupto6Megapixels

The M16 is a MOBOTIX camera with a 6-megapixel night sensor that can deliver black and white images with up to 3072x2048 pixels. As opposed to the night sensor of an M12 with

1.3 megapixels, the image size is almost ve times higher.

World’srstThermalCamerawithOpticalSensorModule

The new thermal sensor modules measure the thermal radiation of objects, delivering clear thermal images even in absolute darkness. Together with the MxActivitySensor, they can reliably detect motion in images at night – where only changes in position will trigger a signal. Objects moving on the spot do not trigger a signal. The thermal sensor modules also have an advantage during the day, as they can detect moving objects in shadows, semi-darkness, smoke or behind bushes. The optional optical sensor module records the same scene with more details, allowing to identify persons, for example.

M16 AllroundDual

MxActivitySensor

The M16 provides an activity-controlled image analysis sensor as standard for detecting the movements of people and objects in a dened surveillance area (full image or section). The MxActivitySensor delivers reliable results particularly in outdoor area applications in contrast to video motion detection that continues to be available and that registers all image changes in dened video motion windows. In the monitored area, the camera distinguishes between the continuous movements of vehicles, persons or objects that trigger an alarm and movements that do not set o an alarm such as shadows, changing light conditions and trees swaying in the wind.

LowPowerConsumptioninAccordanceWithPoEStandard(IEEE802.3af)

An M16 typically uses 7.5 W, despite the new dual-core technology. Adjusting the PoE class via the camera soware also enables the use of PoE switches that cannot be operated on all ports with PoE class 3 (up to max. 12.95 V). Please note that PoE Class 3 is recommen ded for the M16, and that the M16-Thermal/M16-Thermal-TR always requires Class 3. Class 3 is also required if you connect MxBus or USB modules to the camera.

M16 Camera Manual: Product Overview

1.1.4 Decentralized Video System

Usually, cameras only supply images, while processing and recording take place later on a central PC using video management soware. This centralized structure has too many limitations for high-resolution video systems since it requires high network bandwidth and the PC processing power is insuicient when using several high-resolution cameras. Due to the large number of computers and servers required, traditional centralized systems are therefore becoming less suitable and cost eective.

As part of the decentralized MOBOTIX concept, every camera features a high-speedprocessor, and, if necessary, digital long-term ashmemory (MicroSD card) can be integrated to provide several days of recording time. The com puter or video control center is required only to view and control the cameras, not to evaluate and record video. This means that you do not have to rely on expensive, overloaded video management soware as most of the important functions that require a large amount of processing power are integrated into the MOBOTIX cameras themselves.

Integrated sensors enable MOBOTIX cameras such as the M16 to automatically detect when an event has occurred. If necessary, the cameras will respond immediately with an alarm sound and will establish a direct video and sound connection to a control room.

M16 models utilize MxActivitySensor to detect the movement of people and objects and their direction of movement as standard. The MxActivitySensor delivers reliable results particularly in outdoor area applications, in contrast to video motion detection that con tinues to be available and that registers even the smallest of image changes in dened video motion windows. In the dened monitored area (full image or section), the camera distinguishes between the continuous movements of vehicles, persons or objects that trigger an alarm and movements that do not set o an alarm such as shadows, changing light conditions, heavy rain or trees swaying in the wind.

The M16 is also equipped with a shock detector as standard. For example, if the camera receives a blow to the housing, it can simultaneously take a video of the oender, trigger a sound alarm and notify the security company by a SIP call. Due to the build quality and absence of moving parts, MOBOTIX cameras are extremely tough. This typically allows them to stay fully operational, even when they are subject to strong vibrations.

All MOBOTIX cameras are backlight-proof and are not adversely aected by the glare from direct sunlight. They deliver meaningful, detailed images at all times as the camera soware supports easy programming of independent exposure windows, making them ideal for rooms with large glass fronts.

MOBOTIX In the event of an alarm, M16 cameras can also record lip-synchronous audio. The cameras therefore play an important role in analyzing and clarifying a situation. Thanks

to an integrated speaker and microphone, each individual camera can also be used for bidirectional communication (two-way video communication), so you can easily use the MOBOTIX MxBell with your iPhone or iPad on the road.

The decentralized MOBOTIX video solutions are superior to traditional systems in all major aspects. They are also considerably cheaper to operate as they require

•

Fewer cameras due to the more accurate detail of panorama images with megapixel technology

• Fewer recording devices because ten times the standard number of cameras can be used to record high-resolution HDTV video with sound on one computer/server simultaneously in the decentralized system

•

Lower network bandwidth because everything is processed in the camera itself and the high-resolution images therefore do not have to be constantly transmitted for analysis

1.2.1 M16 Lens Options

Since MOBOTIX cameras are backlight-proof, none of these lenses requires a mechanical auto iris, thus making the camera extremely robust and maintenance-free.

The M16 can take one or two optical sensor modules as required.

Designation of MOBOTIX Lenses

The designations of MOBOTIX lenses are derived from the actual focal length multiplied by 10. For example, the MOBOTIX Super Wide-Angle lens B036 has a nominal focal length of 3.6 mm. Converted to 35 mm camera, this would be a lens with 20 mm focal length (see following table). Converting the focal lengths to 35 mm camera as a known format provides for better comparing the image formats and the angles of view of the dierent lenses. Another benet is that you can easily set a 35 mm camera (analog or digital) to the same focal length of the MOBOTIX lens to obtain the same angle of view. This approach greatly facilitates lens selection.

M16 Camera Manual: Installation

2 INSTALLATION

The MOBOTIX M16 has been designed to be mounted on walls and ceilings. It can also be installed on a mounting pole using the appropriate MOBOTIX accessories. The dierent installation options are described in Section 2.3, «Mounting the Camera with Wall Mount» and the following sections, while the drilling templates are available on www.mobotix.com >

Download Center > Documentation > Manuals.

2.1 Preparing the Installation

Before installing the MOBOTIX M16, the following questions should be answered:

1. Where will the camera be installed?

2. What other additional installation options are available?

3. How is the camera connected to the network and how is the power supplied?

4. How are the connections furnished from the building?

5. What cabling considerations are necessary?

The following sections in this chapter should answer all these questions. If anything is unclear or you have more questions, please contact your MOBOTIX partner or MOBOTIX Support directly. Contact information can be found at www.mobotix.com under Support.

2.1.1 InstallationOptions:Wall,Ceiling,Pole

Like all MOBOTIX cameras, the M16isextremelyexible in terms of how and where it can be installed. An M16 can be used for both indoor and outdoor applications: in xed or mobile applications – constantly changing locations or in/on vehicles of any kind. The M16 cameras have been certied weatherproof according to IP66 IP66 and can work reliably in temperature ranges from –40 to 60 °C/–40 to 140 °F (cold start min. temp. –30 °C/–22 °F) without heating or fan. A practical weather and sun protective cover is integrated into the extremely resistant housing, which is made of UV-resistant special-purpose plastic.

Thanks to the camera’s unique VarioFlex mounting system (supplied as standard), the M16 camera can be installed quickly and easily on any wall, ceiling or even a round pole of up to 18 cm in diameter (when combined with the stainless steel pole mount). The VarioFlex mounting system allows a wide range in both the horizontal and vertical directions (rotating and tilting) to enable precise adjustment to suit the area to be monitored. The mount also tsdirectlyoverin-wallsockets(withouttheframe)andMOBOTIXinterfaceboxes to fully conceal the cable, thus improving the security of the installation.

Central joint

Weather protection

The VarioFlex mount consists of a central joint, which is directly screwed into place with the M16 housing, and a wall and ceiling mount, which is fastened to the central joint with just one screw. In addition to being easy to install, the VarioFlex mount enjoys the advantage of featuring completely concealed cabling and high impermeability to water and dust (IP66). Wall and ceiling mounts are designed such that they can be installed over conventional in-wall sockets (without the frame) or cavity sockets and conceal them completely. A MOBOTIX interface box can be integrated in the wall mount .

Tilting the camera when installed on a ceiling

• Horizontal: 360°

• Vertical: -90° to +17°

VarioFlex wall mount with protected cabling and cover for in-wall sockets and MOBOTIX interface boxes

Make sure that you have found the best camera position before installing the camera. It is important that the camera’s eld of view is not obstructed in any way. Once the camera has been installed on a wall or ceiling, you can ne-tune its position. If the monitored area changes or the camera has to be installed in a dierent location, it is easy to exchange the camera’s sensor modules and continue using the camera, without having to upgrade to new video soware.

Wall installation

• Horizontal: 180°

• Vertical: -60° to +20°

Wall Installation

The M16 can be installed on the wall of a building or structures, even mobile surfaces, for both indoor and outdoor use. The camera is mounted using the pre-installed VarioFlex mount (supplied as standard), which is easily secured using the four enclosed screws and screw anchors (depending on the surface, it can also be mounted without screw anchors directly over the in-wall socket). The Ethernet connection cable of the camera has already been guided through the mount and simply needs to be connected with the network cable on-site (for example, using the MX-Patch-Box). By adjusting the VarioFlex mount as required, the captured image area can be precisely adjusted to the desired practical application. The

This installation option is of particular benet when monitoring rectangular rooms with a sin gle camera. In such cases, the B041 sensor module with Super Wide-Angle lens allows the room to be monitored almost entirely by an M16 installed on the ceiling in one of the corners. Using the PTZ soware, you can easily zoom in on image details in either the live image or the recording. Thecameracanbeturnedortilted360°horizontallyand107°

Preparing the Installation

Installing on a Pole (With Accessories)

Installation on round poles is frequently used for cameras that are intended for mobile outdoor use (for example, surveillance of construction sites). For this purpose, MOBOTIX recommends using the pole mount, which is available for the M16 as an accessory and is almost indestructible (MX-MH-SecureFlex-ESWS). This pole mount is made from rustproof stainless steel with a white coating and is used in combination with the pre-installed VarioFlex mount supplied as standard with the wall mount.

Poles with a diameter between 60 and 180 mm can be used. It is particularly advisable to use cavity (metal) poles, in which the network cable is not visible and can be protected from attacks. For more detailed information on the installation process, see Section 2.2, «First Installation Steps». The drilling templates are available on www.mobotix.com >

Download Center > Documentation > Manuals.

2.1.2 Installing the Camera with Hemispheric Sensor Modules

The camera must be correctly positioned on the wall or ceiling in order to be able to use the high-resolution hemispheric image display options of the M16 with B016 sensor module(s). The entire hemisphere of the room in front of the camera is then eectively monitored.

High-Resolution Panorama Images

The M16 with B016 sensor module(s) is primarily suited to providing an excellent over view in the form of a high-resolution panorama image, and less suitable for more exact details. For active operation, the camera should be installed at an (out of direct reach) height ranging from 2.5 m to 3.5 m. People, for example, may be identied very well at distances of up to 1.5 m and with suicient detail at up to 3 m. Objects can be detected even at distances of 5 m and more from the camera. During installation, ensure that the camera is focused on the most important areas of the room as directly as possible in order to optimize image quality and provide the desired level of detail recognition. This applies above all to wall and ceiling installations that must be carried out at greater heights for technical or other reasons (over doors, windows, etc.). The lens capabilities can be only fully utilized by tilting the camera appropriately.

Capture of entire room

Allround View

A single M16 sensor module can monitor an entire room right into each of the four corners (360° Panorama View) thanks to its hemispheric lens. The camera should ideally be positioned on the ceiling in the center of the room. Rooms with a square oor area of up to approx. 40 m² generally allow the recognition of detail even at the bor ders of the full image. Rooms with up to 100 m² of oor area can be monitored using one single camera if you only want to monitor specic objects or to know if persons enter a room.

The image quality (precision) diminishes as the

distance of an object to the camera focus point

increases: 1 very good, 2 good, 3 satisfactory

Preparing the Installation

Furthermore, the “camera view from top to bottom” can also be achieved by installing the camera on a wall or a pole at a tilt of 90°.

Weatherproof housing visible in the

Note

Part of the captured image area is concealed behind the protective cover of the M16 housing, especially in the full image. For this reason, M16 cameras with B016 lens should be adjusted so that the concealed areas are not those that are supposed to be monitored. The concealed area can be completely removed from the image by panning/tilting/zooming the image using the virtual PTZ function.

Power-Over-Ethernet(PoEConformingtoIEEE802.3af)

All M16 models are supplied with power using the PoE standard. The PoE Adapter Set (MX-NPA-PoE-Set) may be used for smaller installations, or the weatherproof PoE injector MX-NPA-Box (MX-OPT-NPA1-EXT) may be used in outdoor scenarios. For larger installati ons, we recommend investing in a PoE-capable supply device available on the market. Section 2.7 contains more information on the possible combinations of connecting the

M16 and power supply options.

The maximum length of the network cable for power supply over an Ethernet cable is

100 m/110 yd. The Mx2wire+ media converter set (available as an accessory) can be used

to extend the range of an Ethernet connection up to 500 m in length (maximum transmis sion speed for a 500 m/550 yd cable: 45 Mbps and 12 W for the PoE device).

Note

The MOBOTIX M16 can be powered by switches or routers that support the PoE (Powerover-Ethernet) standard and conform to IEEE 802.3af.

Advantages of PoE power supply:

• Centralized backup power supply available via network

• Lower, more cost-eective power consumption

• Camera does not require an additional network connection

Using Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS)

You should install an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in order to maintain a continuous power supply even when utility power fails. These devices also provide full protection against electrical surges and voltage uctuations, enhancing the reliability of the system as a whole.

When using a more powerful 19” rack-mounted UPS, you can also protect all other network components (for example, switches, routers, PoE switches, etc.).

Since MOBOTIX cameras do not require any heating, even during winter, the average power consumption of less than 5 watts is ver y low. This, in turn, means that you can centralize the UPS-protected power supply by injecting power into the Ethernet cables (max. 100 m). This kind of protected power supply can be used either with MOBOTIX PoE products (MX-NPAPoE + Universal Power Supply) or with PoE-compliant switches according to IEEE 802.3af.

2.1.4 ProvidingtheCameraConnections,MX-Overvoltage-Protection-Box

Once the camera position, the position of the cable outlets and the method of power supply have been decided upon, the cabling can be installed. Before installing the MOBOTIX M16, you should make sure that the network connections have been thorougly tested so that the proper functioning of the camera is guaranteed.

UPS units not only protect the camera against power failures, they also protect all other connected network devices against damage from voltage peaks and lows

If the camera is to be installed outdoors, you should also install the MOBOTIX MX-Overvoltage-Protection-Box (optional accessory). This interface box not only provides

overvoltage protection of up to 4 kV for MOBOTIX IP cameras

and weatherproof connection of the cameras to a network patch cable (

2.1.5 Wiring,FirePrevention,LightningandSurgeProtection

When installing the wiring inside or outside of buildings, make sure you always adhere to the relevant regulations on wiring, re prevention, and protection against lightning.

MOBOTIX cameras are protected against the eects of small electrical surges by a range of measures. These measures, however, cannot prevent the camera from being damaged when stronger electrical surges occur. Particular care should be taken when installing the camera outside to ensure proper protection against lightning, as this also protects the building and the entire network infrastructure.

MOBOTIX recommends having MOBOTIX cameras installed only by certied specialists accustomed to installing network devices and having proper respect for the applicable regulations regarding lightning protection and re prevention as well as the current tech nology for preventing damages from electrical surges.

Wiring

When installing the wiring, make sure to follow these guidelines:

• Data cable: Make sure you only use double-shielded Cat 5 or higher cable (S/STP) for Ethernet connections.

•

Outdoors: Installing the camera outdoors requires special precautions and measures regarding the cables as well as lightning and surge protection.

• Wire lengths: The cable segments must not exceed the maximum allowed cable lengths in order to ensure pro per data transfer.

• Avoiding induction: When running data cables parallel to existing regular power lines or high-voltage wires, make sure you observe the minimum distances to the power cables.

Fire Prevention

When installing the power lines to the camera, make sure you always adhere to the countryspecic regulations (for example, VDE in Germany, IEEE in the U.S.) in eect on wiring and re prevention at the site of the installation.

Lightning and Surge Protection

In order to avoid damage to MOBOTIX cameras from overvoltages, you should always install the MX-Overvoltage-Protection-Box. This competitively priced and weatherproof network connector provides reliable protection against overvoltages of up to 4 kV; the box is easily installed in the Outdoor Wall Mount, for example (see Section 1.4.7, «MX-OvervoltageProtection-Box»).

First Installation Steps

2.2 First Installation Steps

2.2.1 InitialInstallationoftheSensorModules(ExceptM16CompleteCameras)

The MOBOTIX M16 cameras are delivered with a pre-assembled housing as M16 Body camera. The sensor modules (consisting of lens carrier, image sensor and lens) need be ordered separately. Upon delivery, the sensor module sockets in the front element are tted with transport plugs. When operating the camera, it needs to be tted either with sensor or blind modules. This closes o the front element and protects the camera against foreign objects, insects and water.

Caution

Only replace the sensor modules when the camera is disconnected from the power supply. Make sure the power supply to the camera is disconnected before installing or replacing sensor modules.

When installing the sensor modules, make sure that the sensor module cables and the patch cable are not damaged or bent sharply.

Using One or Two Sensor Modules

With an M16, you have the choice of using the camera with one or two sensor modules. Since the modules are easily exchanged, it is also possible to add a module or to use dif ferent ones later on.

Caution

Note that you must not operate the M16 with installed transport plugs, since the camera is not protected against the environments:

Prepare the straps: Guide the two stainless steel straps through the pole mount. The pole must have a diameter between 60 mm and 180 mm.

3. Attach pole mount: Place the straps around the pole and tighten them using a screwdriver. If necessary, the ends of the straps can be cut o.

4. Attach rubber sealing ring: Place the white rubber sealing ring with the groove on the edge of the wall mount.

5. Connect the cable: Connect the on-site network cable to the camera patch cable using an adapter or insert the patch cable into the RJ45 outlet. Take note of the installation manual included in the package when using a MX-Patch-Box. All manuals can be downloaded and printed (as PDF les) from the MOBOTIX website (www.mobotix.com) in the Support > Download Center > Documentation > Manuals section. Make sure that the cables are not bent or squashed.

Network and Power Connection

2.7 Network and Power Connection

• Power is supplied to the camera via the camera Ethernet connection (patch or installation cable). We recommend using a MOBOTIX PoE adapter or another similar high-quality PoE product to loop-in the power supply:

– One camera: with the PoE adapter (MX-NPA-PoE or MX-NPA-Box)

– Multiple cameras: with PoE products conforming to IEEE 802.3af (PoE switch)

• The maximumlength of the network cable for power supply over an Ethernet cable is 100 m.

• Make sure that you only use switches or routers that support the 10/100 Mbps net work interface of the camera.

•

We highly recommend using uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) to provide backup power.

• If you are using IEEE 802.3af or IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) Power-over-Ethernet network components to supply power to MOBOTIX cameras, make sure, if possible, that these components do not have a fan. Since the power consumption of MOBOTIX cameras is very low compared to other products, the reliability of the entire system is increased, thus extending the life of these components.

3 OPERATING THE CAMERA

3.1 ManualandAutomaticOperation–Overview

Download the free-of-charge MxManagementCenter soware at www.mobotix.com

MOBOTIX cameras do not require any extra soware. Thus, you can set up and operate the MOBOTIX camera using a JavaScript-enabled browser on all common operating systems (such as Windows, Linux, Macintosh, etc.). As an alternative, you can also use the MOBOTIX application MxManagementCenter. Follow these steps to set up the camera:

1. Connect the camera to the network.

Power is supplied directly via the Ethernet cable (see Section 2.7, «Network and Power Connection»)

Establish a connection to the camera and adjust the network settings, if required.

By factory default, MOBOTIX cameras are booting as DHCP client with an additional xed IP address in the 10.x.x.x range (e.g., 10.16.0.128). Local computer net works usually have IP addresses in the 172 or 192 ranges. Depending on whether a DHCP server is present on the local network (e.g., a DSL router) or if the network has been set up to use xed IP addresses, there are several possibilities for establishing a connection to the camera and to change its network parameters:

• Network with DHCP server

– Using a browser:

If you know the IP address that the DHCP server assigned to the camera, simply enter that address in the browser address bar to directly connect to the camera (see Section 3.2.1, «Manually Setting Up the Network Parameters in a Browser»).

– Using MxManagementCenter:

With MxManagementCenter, you can show and integrate the camera without having to know its current IP address (see Section 3.2.3, «First Images and Network Parameter Conguration in MxMC»).

• Network with xed IP addresses

In order to access the camera, it must have an IP address within the range of the local network. To set the camera’s network parameters, you can use one of these methods:

– Manually using a browser:

First, you need to change the network parameters of your computer (see Section 3.2.1, «Manually Setting Up the Network Parameters in a Browser» and following …).

Manual and Automatic Operation – Overview

– Integration into MxManagementCenter with automatic adjustment of the

camera’s IP address:

The camera is displayed in MxManagementCenter despite the fact that the IP address is not part of the local network. The application allows reconguring the network parameters accordingly (see Section 3.2.3, «First Images and Network Parameter Conguration in MxMC»).

3. Congure the camera.

3.2 First Images and the Most Important Settings

Once the MOBOTIX camera has been connected to the network, you need to set up the camera’s network interface accordingly. This step involves setting up and checking the network parameters of the camera. If your network is already using an IP address in the

10.x.x.x range with a 255.0.0.0 network mask, you do not need to change the camera’s network parameters. You can access the camera directly (see Section 3.2.2). If your network or computer does not use an IP address in the 10.x.x.x range (for example, in the 192 or 172 ranges), you should follow one of the following methods for changing the camera’s network parameters:

• Manual setup (see Section 3.2.1)

• Automatic setup using MxManagementCenter (see Section 3.2.3)

For the following examples, we will use a camera with the factory address 10.16.0.99. Replace this IP address with the IP address of your camera. You will nd the IP address of your camera on a small sticker on the camera. Make sure that the IP addresses used in the following examples are not already being used by other devices in the network.

Hint:

Briey pressing the L key will prompt the camera to announce its current IP

address on the camera speaker.

3.2.1 Manually Setting Up the Network Parameters in a Browser

You need a computer that is using a 10.x.x.x IP address in order to manually set up the network parameters of the MOBOTIX camera. The computer’s network parameters usually have to be changed for this purpose.
