Inserting/Exchanging the SD Card

All camera models can use the integrated MicroSD card (SDXC) 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 > Download Center >
Documentation > White Lists in the document MicroSD Card Whitelist for MOBOTIX Cameras.
Caution:
In order to avoid damage from electrostatic discharge, you should touch a grounded device before opening the housing of the camera (e.g., the
blank metal at the back of a computer). This will remove any static electricity that may have built up.
1. Remove the cables on the back
Release the blue bayonet catch, then remove
the patch cable.
If a USB cable is attached, remove this cable
in the same way.
Lay aside the wall sealing of the camera.
2. Remove the back cover
Insert a suitable device into the hole at the
top of the back cover as shown until you feel
resistance.
In order to release the back cover, cautiously
press upward as indicated by the blue arrow.
If you are using a flat-head screwdriver, simply
turn the screwdriver.
Gently pull the back cover a bit backward
then lift the back cover upward to remove it
3. Remove the main board
Release the main board by gently pressing
the snap-fit hook beneath the main board as
indicated by the red arrow.
Push the main board out of the housing by
gently applying pressure onto the lens holder
(push upward, since the main board is tilted
downward 15 degrees).
Take care that the lens holder does not catch
in the tunnel or the snap-fit hook.

Installing the Mx-A-IOA-IC

For the Mx-i26A/B, you can use the optionally available Mx-A-IOA-IC to attach external sensors using the signal inputs and
to switch other devices via the signal outputs. When used with the the Mx-i26B, you can also attach MxBus devices (e.g.,
an MX-GPS-Box).
1. Insert the Mx-A-IOA-IC
On the back of the camera, remove the sticker
that protects the receptacle and the camera's
interior from collecting dirt (see red arrow in
figure to the right).
Carefully push the module board onto the
receptacle. Secure the module board using
the supplied Phillips screw (see red arrow in
figure).
When attaching the connection wires to the
Mx-A-IOA-IC, make sure the wires are guided to
the module without tension (you could apply
a cable tie and tie the wires to the network
cable, for example).

Installation Without In-Wall Installation Set

Use the drilling template on the back for this step. Mark the holes for dowels or screws (blue) and the cut-out for the cables
(red). If required, drill the holes for the dowels, push them in and cut the cut-out for the cables. Guide the Ethernet cable and
any other cables that are to be connected through the cut-out.
1. Press wall sealing on i26
Press the wall sealing on the back of the i26
and make sure that it lies flat all around the
rim. Note that the labels of the sealing are
pointing toward the back of the camera.
2. Connect the cables
Insert the cables into the appropriate connec-
tors and fasten them using the blue bayonet
catches.
