M10 Camera Manual Part 1
1.4.4 Starting the Camera Using the Factory IP Address
If the camera's IP address is not known any more, you can start the camera with its
factory IP address. Section 3.6, Starting the Camera Using the Factory IP Address ,
describes this procedure in more detail.
1.4.5 Resetting the Camera to Factory Defaults
All settings of the MOBOTIX camera can be reset permanently to the factory default
settings. This makes sense if you have, for example, obtained a camera without
any information or you would like to reset all settings after testing the camera. In
order to perform this procedure, you need to have access to the administration
area of the camera (Admin rights). Open Admin Menu > Reset ... to reset the
camera to factory defaults.
Note:
In contrast to the method described in section 1.4.4, Starting the Camera
Using the Factory IP Address , all users (except the admin user) will be deleted
when resetting the camera to factory defaults. Likewise, the admin user's pass-
word will be reset.
1.4.6 Activating Event Control for Security Applications
In its default state, the camera's event control and video motion detection features
are
not
enabled. In order to activate event control as a whole, open Setup
Menu > General Event Settings and activate the Arming switch or click on the
Arm & Record softbutton of the browser interface. The video motion detection win-
dow is visible again (dotted frame in the center of the live image) and the camera
stores images as soon as the video motion window detects movements.
1.4.7 Deactivating Text and Logo Options
As the camera arming has been deactivated as per factory default (see preceding
section), the MOBOTIX camera only displays the Text WWW.MOBOTIX.COM, the
time stamp and the MOBOTIX logo at the top of the image. Once the camera arm-
ing has been activated, the texts at the bottom of the live image (event, action and
messaging symbols) will also appear.
If the camera is armed, you can deactivate the status text at the bottom and the
text at the top left corner of the live image by setting Text Display in the Setup
Menu > Text & Display Settings dialog to Off . Setting Text Display to Date & Time
will only display the time stamp in the live image. In order to hide the logo in the
live image, open Admin Menu > Logo Profiles and set Logo Display to Disable .
1.4.8 Deactivating the Daily Reboot of the Camera
In its factory state, the MOBOTIX camera will automatically reboot every morning at
3:36 am. In very rare cases, external influences (e.g. radiation in high locations)
can lead to camera malfunctions. The automatic reboot will refresh the camera's
memory and will ensure proper operation without requiring any interaction on the
part of the user.
