2. Installation With AudioMount (Accessory)
Using the self-adhesive AudioMount
intercom solution. This is explained in the product documentation «Quick
Install AudioMount» (suitable drilling template is supplied).
Notes:
• Due to the missing MxBus connection, this camera model cannot be installed as a fully-fledged door station with connected MxBus modules and
corresponding remote stations.
• For the realization of an intercom solution, switching inputs and outputs can be used via a USB-connected MX-232-IO-Box. In this case, the process-
ing of the switching input signals (e. g., from a bell) and the switching outputs (e. g., for a door release) is carried out internally via the available
standard mechanisms (e. g., events and network messages). Autoconfiguration and other door station functions are not available.

Connections and Initial Operation of the S26

You can find detailed information on the installation and connections of the S26 in the S15 Camera Manual for the S15M (PDF, available on
www.mobotix.com > Support > Manuals).
Please note that the boot options of this camera have changed compared to its predecessor (see «Boot Options of the S26» ) and the camera only has
one key ("L"). Regarding the rest of the initial operation of the S26, please see the S15 Camera Manual in Chapter 3, «Initial Operation» .

USB
Ethernet patch cable
In special situations, you can attach an external sensor module to the S26. In this case, you need to attach the external sensor module to the "Cam1"
connector of the camera; then follow the instructions for attaching sensor modules to the S16. After configuring the external sensor module, the inte-
grated image sensor of the S26 will be deactivated.

Inserting/Exchanging the SD Card

All camera models can use the integrated MicroSD card (SDHC) to record video data. In order to exchange the MicroSD
card, please proceed as outlined in the following instruction. For information on reliable SD cards, please see the MOBOTIX
website www.mobotix.com > Support > MxMedia Library > Planning in the document MicroSD Card Whitelist for
MOBOTIX Cameras .
When replacing the SD card, make sure that recording has been deactivated in the browser ( Admin Menu > Storage >
Storage on External File Server / Flash Device ; activate recording again in the same dialog).
1. Remove the SD card
Loosen the threaded plug at the top of the
housing (using a suitable coin, for example)
and remove the plug. Using tweezers, gently
press the SD card into the slot (as indicated by
the arrow) until you hear a click . The card is
protruding slightly and can be easily removed
with the tweezers.

Boot Options of the S26

By default, the camera starts as DHCP client and automatically tries to get
an IP address from a DHCP server. To start the camera in a mode different
from the default mode, you can activate the boot menu of the camera.
1. Preparing the Camera
• Disconnect the camera's power supply.
• Reconnect the power supply of the camera.
2. Activating the Boot Menu
The red LED lights up 5 to 10 seconds after establishing
the power supply and will stay on for 10 seconds. Briefly
press the key L indicated by the red circle in the figure.
The camera enters the boot menu, ready for selecting
one of the boot options.
The LED now flashes once and repeats the flash signal
after pausing for one second (the number of flashes indicates the current
boot option). To go to the next boot option, briefly press the key again
(< 1 sec). After the last boot option, the camera returns to the first option
(LED flashes once).
