Exchanging Sensor Modules - Mobotix M15 Manual

First Installation Steps

2.2.4 Exchanging Sensor Modules

Note that you only need to follow this procedure if the security clips (M11) have been installed.
Since the sensor modules cannot be exchanged from the outside in such a case, you need
to remove the front element, replace the sensor modules and install the front element
again. If no security clips have been installed, you can exchange the sensor modules as
described in Section 2.2.1, «Initial Installation of the Sensor Modules (Except M15D Kits)» .
Procedure
1. Open camera housing: Open the camera housing
as described in Section 2.2.2 .
2. Remove the security clips : The sensor or blind mod-
ules may have been protected against unwanted
rotation by applying the security clips. Push the top
pf the security clip in the direction of the blue arrow
(see figure in the side note) so that it can pass the
notch and pull the clip upwards.
3. Remove the sensor module cable from the sensor
or blind module: The sensor module cables are
secured using a special cable lock with bayonet
catch. To remove the bayonet catch turn it counter-
clockwise until it gently snaps open. Take off the
catch and pull out the cable.
4. Remove the sensor or blind module : Set the black
module wrench onto the sensor or blind module,
so that the two notches lock into the two holes of
the module (at the 12 and 6 o'clock positions). Turn
module wrench counter-clockwise by 90 degrees
until it stops.
Push the sensor or blind module out of its socket.
5. Prepare the new sensor module : Remove the
plastic lock nut (this is not needed any more).
Remove the bayonet catch by rotating it counter-
clockwise, then remove the blue rubber plug.
