/148 S14 Camera Manual: Foreword Foreword Dear MOBOTIX customer, Congratulations on purchasing a highly efficient and discreet premium network camera ”Made in Germany.” MOBOTIX is proud to present the S14 FlexMount, a weatherproof system (IP65), characterized primarily by sensor modules that can be flexibly mounted. In the S14D, two lenses with a sensor board and a microphone are connected to the base module via a 2 m/6.6 ft long cable.
/148 The S14M version has a hemispheric sensor module (day or night) integrated into the camera housing. The housing can be placed discreetly behind a wall/ceiling or stainless steel panel up to 6.4 mm/0.25 in thick. S14M – Camera with hemispheric sensor module for concealed installation behind a wall or ceiling panel HiRes 180° panorama 180° panorama This manual starts with an overview of the innovative, decentralized MOBOTIX concept.
/148 S14 Camera Manual: The MOBOTIX Concept The MOBOTIX Concept HiRes Video Innovations and Technology Leader 3 Mega Since it was founded in 1999, the listed German company MOBOTIX AG has been regarded as the leading pioneer in network camera technology and its decentralized concept has made high-resolution video systems cost-efficient. 1,536 lines Mega MOBOTIX has been an exclusive producer of megapixel cameras for years and is the global leader in highresolution video systems.
/148 The Decentralized MOBOTIX Concept Unlike other systems, with the decentralized MOBOTIX concept, every camera features a high-speed computer, and, if necessary, a digital long-term memory (MicroSD Card) can be integrated to provide days of recording time. The PC or the video control center is required only to view and control the cameras (PTZ), not to evaluate and record video.
/148 S14 Camera Manual: Innovative Hemispheric Technology Innovative Hemispheric Technology The Hemispheric Camera The primary components of a hemispheric camera include a fisheye lens, a high-resolution image sensor, and image correction software that is integrated into the camera. Using an ultra-wide angle fisheye lens, the hemispheric camera captures a 180°-hemispheric image of the room and projects it onto a high-resolution image sensor.
/148 Less Cameras Thanks To Panoramic Views The perspective of the hemispheric image can also be transformed into an ultra-wide angle panoramic view spanning 180° if the camera is mounted on a wall, providing a wall-to-wall view of the room without any blind spots. It offers a substantially better view of the scene, compared to other cameras, and it also results in the need for fewer cameras overall. When ceiling mounted, one camera can also capture an entire room by two opposite panoramic views.
/148 S14 Camera Manual: Innovative Hemispheric Technology High-Resolution 180° Panorama The perspective of the hemispheric image can also be transformed into an ultra-wide angle panoramic view spanning 180° if the camera is mounted on a wall, providing a wall-to-wall view of the room without any blind spots. It offers a substantially better view of the scene, compared to other cameras, and it also results in the need for fewer cameras overall.
/148 Select From Several Image Views The surround function of a single S14 sensor module (ceiling-mounted) replaces four conventional cameras and shows four different directions simultaneously in quad view on a monitor. Virtual PTZ is available for each of the four views. Together with the 180° panorama, the S14 can deliver two more views simultaneously, making it possible to see the overview and to focus on two scenes at the same time (”Panorama Focus” display mode).
/148 S14 Camera Manual: Superior Storage Solution Superior Storage Solution MOBOTIX Storage Concept Without Bottlenecks These days, video data is normally pre-processed and stored centrally on a PC or DVR using video management software. Video and audio streams from all installed cameras are directed to this central device. This can quickly cause data bottlenecks for high-resolution cameras, in particular.
/148 SD Card Memory Reduces Recording Costs MOBOTIX cameras are also able to record up to 64 GB of video in their integrated memory. Thanks to this high storage capacity and the option of recording only the sequences in which an event occurs, external storage devices such as hard drives are rarely required. This saves on recording devices and network infrastructure and reduces the maintenance cost of mechanical components such as hard drives or fans.
/148 S14 Camera Manual: Added Security Value Added Security Value Robust, Low-Maintenance Technology The real added value of MOBOTIX products is reflected in characteristics such as enhanced functionality, long life and robustness. In general, MOBOTIX cameras have no moving parts. This makes the cameras very resistant to wear and tear, and reduces both maintenance costs and power consumption.
/148 Sound Increases The Chance Of Detection In the event of an alarm, MOBOTIX cameras can turn on their built-in microphones and record lip-synchronous audio. They are therefore an even greater help in analyzing a situation and easing clarification. In addition, the video system can be used for bidirectional communication via a loudspeaker/microphone. No Problems With Backlight MOBOTIX cameras are not adversely affected by the glare from direct sunlight.

/148 S14 Camera Manual: Installation 2 Installation The S14 FlexMount is designed for concealed installation in ceilings, walls, behind panels or in existing or specially manufactured housings. The independent sensor models, each with a max. 2 m/6.6 ft long cable, mean the S14D can offer a number of options when selecting the installation location. The installation position of the sensor modules is crucial here.
/148 Determining The Installation Position 2.1.1 Positioning A Hemispheric Camera A hemispheric camera is primarily suited to providing an excellent overview, and less suitable for more exact details. Due to its inherent physical and optical properties, the precision of the lens decreases as the distance from the lens grows. This means that the maximum usable image area greatly varies with the purpose of the camera. People, for example, may be identified very well at distances of up to 1.
/148 S14 Camera Manual: Installation Rectangular Rooms When viewing a 360° panaroma image in the browser, you will notice that the top and bottom of the image are not fully visible, i.e., some image information has been clipped. This is not the fault of the camera, but intended behavior that aims at achieving the best possible utilization of the image sensor by the camera software.
/148 Determining The Installation Position Wall-Mounting To make optimal use of the high-resolution 180° panorama functionality of a hemispheric camera, the lens or sensor module must be mounted on an inside or outside wall. The entire hemisphere of the room directly in front of the camera is then effectively monitored, from the wall on the left of the camera to the wall on the right.
/148 S14 Camera Manual: Installation Selecting An Appropriate Camera Position During installation, ensure that the camera is focused on the most important areas of the room as directly as possible in order to provide the desired level of detail recognition (camera focus). The S14 should be installed on a wall such that the two arrows on the back of the sensor module housing (S14D) or the rounded side of the camera housing (S14M) are pointing towards the ceiling. 2.50 to 3.50 m/8.2 to 11.
