Non-Square Rooms
When viewing a 360° (full) image in
the browser, you will notice that the
top and bottom of the image is not
fully visible, i.e. some image informa-
tion has been clipped. This is not a
fault of the camera, but an intended
behavior that aims at achieving the
best possible utilization of the image
sensor by the camera software.
Bearing this in mind, it is advisable to
install a Q22M in rectangular rooms
so that the arrow marked as OBEN/
TOP points towards one of the long
sides of the room as shown in the figure.
Lowered Mounting or Mounting on Extensions
When mounting the camera in rooms with a high ceiling, it may be advisable to
mount the camera in a lower position. This reduces the distance between the ca-
mera and the objects that are to be monitored, which in turn increases the reco-
gnizability of details. One practical solution would be
to install the camera on a base plate attached to a
suitable extension (metal tube) that is hanging from
the ceiling. The network cable can be hidden from
view by running through the interior of the tube.
Similar to such a lowered mounting from the ceiling,
you can also attach the camera to an extension
mounted to a wall to better use the 360° image of
the camera (e.g. outside, above a portal). Such an
installation would use the pole mount accessory
(MX-D22-OPT-MH) in conjunction with the wall
mount (MX-D22-OPT-WH) as a sturdy camera car-
rier, which is then mounted to the extension pole.
MOBOTIX recommends not to attach the camera di-
rectly to metal carriers, especially when mounting
the camera outdoors or when the ambient tempera-
ture varies greatly. As an additional measure to pro-
tect the camera against condensation, you should
use either the On-Wall set (MX-D22-OPT-AP) or the
Wall Mount (MX-D22-OPT-WH).
