Camera Setup (configuration and date/time setting)
There are four methods in which the camera's date and time can be set or the
parameters modified: A simple text file (works on most operating systems), an
external monitor (OSD), using a dedicated program (GUI) for Windows, or usinfg a
WiFi connection app for Android and iOS smart phones.
Whenever the firmware is updated you will need to set the parameters as well as the
date and time. These are reset to their default values whenever the firmware is
updated. In addition, the date and time will need to be set whenever the battery
becomes discharged or is disconnected.
1. GUI (Graphical User Interface) configuration - recommended method for
Windows users
On Windows it is recommended to always use the program mSetup.exe to modify the
camera's configuration or format the SD card. mSetup communicates directly with the
camera and makes configuring the camera a very simple task.
The camera must be in Webcam mode in order to set the parameters by
See Webcam Mode, above.
2. WiFi configuration and Live-View - recommended method for Android v5.0
and above and iPhone iOS 8.0 and above
The Mobius Maxi (firmware v2.07 and above) supports Live-View and Configuration
using the Android or iPhone app developed by the manufacturer. The app can be
downloaded for free from Google's Play Store or Apple's App store.
In case of problems, or if you don't have a Play Store account, the Android .apk file
may also be downloaded from the mSetup software download page.
The app needs access to your Location, so this must be enabled on your phone
before you run the app.
Likewise, you must disconnect your current WiFi (internet/home network) connection
and then (manually) connect your phone to the Maxi as soon as the camera's WiFi
mode is enabled. Please refer to your phone's manual on how to connect/disconnect
to WiFi.
The default password is 1234567890.
