WARNING! When laying cables indoors and outdoors, the current regulations for cable laying, lightning and fire protection must always be observed. MOBOTIX cameras and devices are protected against the effects of minor over voltages by a number of meas- ures. However, these measures cannot prevent larger surge voltages from causing damage to the camera.
Measures should always be taken to protect this device from electrical surge damage. NOTE! Electrical surge protection is integrated in the S74 Network Slide in Board with LSA terminal (see Installing the S74 Network Slide in Board with LSA terminal, p.

1. Establish a connection to the camera and adjust the network settings if required: By factory default, MOBOTIX cameras are booting as DHCP client with an additional fixed IP address in the 10.x.x.x range (e.g., 10.16.0.128). Local computer networks usually have IP addresses in the 172 or 192 ranges.

When starting MxManagementCenter for the first time, the configuration wizard opens and automatically starts searching for MOBOTIX cameras. The number of found cameras is shown as a counter next to the Add Devices icon . This number is updated automatically if the number of MOBOTIX cameras on the network has changed (i.e., by connecting new/disconnecting existing cameras).

NOTE! Using the Bonjour service (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonjour_(software)), the application finds not only MOBOTIX cameras on the same subnet, but also in other subnets. Normally, you would not be able to estab- lish any connection to cameras in a different network or subnet.
To correct image sharpness, you can also make use of the visual focusing aid of the camera (see the Camera Reference Manual, section The Live View of the MOBOTIX Camera) 1. Show the live image of the camera on your monitor.

Adjust the image sharpness according to the live image on the computer monitor: CAUTION! Never apply force when turning the lens and never screw the lens too deep into the thread since this could damage the image sensor! If in doubt, keep turning the lens counter-clockwise, then turn clockwise to focus the lens.
