Preparing the Installation
Installing on a Pole (With Accessories)
Installation on round poles is frequently used for cameras that are intended for mobile
outdoor use (for example, surveillance of construction sites). For this purpose, MOBOTIX
recommends using the pole mount, which is available for the M15 as an accessory and
is almost indestructible (MX-MH-SecureFlex-ESWS). This pole mount is made from rust-
proof stainless steel with a white coating and is used in combination with the pre-installed
VarioFlex mount supplied as standard with the wall mount.
Poles with a diameter between 60 and 180 mm can be used. It is particularly advisable
to use cavity (metal) poles, in which the network cable is not visible and can be protected
from attacks. For more detailed information on the installation process, see Section 2.2,
«First Installation Steps» . The drilling templates are at the end of the manual.
2.1.2 Installing the Camera with Hemispheric Sensor Modules
The camera must be correctly positioned on the wall or ceiling in order to be able to use the
high-resolution hemispheric image display options of the M15 with L12 sensor module(s).
The entire hemisphere of the room in front of the camera is then effectively monitored.
High-Resolution Panorama Images
The M15 with L12 sensor module(s) is primarily suited to providing an excellent overview
in the form of a high-resolution panorama image, and less suitable for more exact
details. For active operation, the camera should be installed at an (out of direct reach)
height ranging from 2.5 m to 3.5 m. People, for example, may be identified very well at
distances of up to 1.5 m and with sufficient detail at up to 3 m. Objects can be detected
even at distances of 5 m and more from the camera. During installation, ensure that the
camera is focused on the most important areas of the room as directly as possible in order
to optimize image quality and provide the desired level of detail recognition. This applies
above all to wall and ceiling installations that must be carried out at greater heights for
technical or other reasons (over doors, windows, etc.). The lens capabilities can be only
fully utilized by tilting the camera appropriately.
