Mobotix MX-BPA-Box Quick Install

Quick Install
• 1 terminal for ext. power supply 12–48 V DC
• 2 MxBus terminals (2 x 2 for MxBus master and for
additional MxBus modules)
• One MX-BPA-Box must not be connected to more than one camera (MxBus master)!
• Make sure that only one MX-BPA-Box is connected to one MxBus!
1. Attach the box
Attach the MX-BPA-Box at the mounting position
with the cable ports pointing downward (torque
0.4 Nm). Next, remove the box cover (three screws).
2. Establish connection to the camera
• Before proceeding, make sure there is no
current on the MxBus wires!
• Cut the MxBus cable to size (2-wire, 0.6–0.8 mm
diameter). When using wires without jacket , strip
the insulation of the wires for 5 mm and push
the wires through the eight-wire plug (center).
• When using a cable with jacket , remove the
pre-installed eight-wire plug and insert the
appropriate cable plug (3 to 5 mm or 5 to 7 mm).
Press the rubber plug into the casing in such
a way that the rims stick out equally on both
sides. Push the cable through the plug, remove
the sheath on a length of 15 mm and strip the
insulation of the wires for about 5 mm.
• Connect the MxBus wires to the terminals of
the MX-BPA-Box using the screwdriver. Make
sure to maintain the polarity (see sticker in front
of the terminal).
• Connect the MxBus wires as described in the
corresponding manual to the MOBOTIX cam-
era or to another MxBus module connected
to a camera (e.g. KeypadRFID, MX-DoorMaster).
Make sure not to exceed the overall length of
the MxBus wiring (max. 100 m/110 yd).
3. Connect the peripheral devices
Connect the other wires/cables as required and
use the corresponding cable plugs (power sup-
ply, MxBus).
4. Tie down the cables
Insert both cable ties as shown. Pull the cable ties
tightly around the wires in order to provide strain relief.
5. Mount the cover
Mount the cover back onto the MX-BPA-Box and
tighten it using the cover screws (torque 0.4 Nm).
