3.8.4 Starting the Camera Using the Factory IP Address
If the camera's IP address is not known, you can start the camera with its factory IP
address. Section 3.3.6,
Starting the Camera Using the Factory IP Address
, describes
this procedure in more detail.
3.8.5 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 (admins group). Open Admin Menu> Reset … to reset the
camera to factory defaults.
Note: All defined users will be deleted and the admin password will be reset
to the factory default when you reset the camera using Admin Menu> Reset …
Proceed according to section 3.3.6,
Starting the Camera Using the Factory IP
Address
, if you would like to maintain existing users.
3.8.6 Activating Event Control for Security Applications
In its default configuration, the camera's event control and video motion detec-
tion features are not enabled. In order to activate event-controlled recording,
open Setup Menu> General Event Settings and activate the Arming switch.
Another method to achieve this is to click on the Arm& Record softbutton of the
browser user interface. The camera displays the video motion detection window in
the live image (dotted frame in the center) and the camera automatically stores
images as soon as the video motion window detects movements.
3.8.7 Deactivating Text and Logo Options
As the camera arming is deactivated in its default configuration (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 arm-
ing has been activated, the text at the bottom of the live image (event, action, mes-
saging and recording symbols) will also appear.
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 Set-
tings 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
.
