M15 Camera Manual
FOREWORD
Dear MOBOTIX customer,
Congratulations on your decision to purchase the M15, the powerful succes-
sor to the original MOBOTIX M1/M10/M12, proven over one hundred thousand
times. This weatherproof (IP66), versatile, all-round solution "Made in Germany"
represents an important milestone in the successful history of MOBOTIX products.
As decentralized complete video systems, MOBOTIX cameras have much more to
offer than conventional network cameras. The M15 features integrated environment
sensors (PIR, outside temperature, motion sensor), speaker and microphone for two-
way video communication based on the SIP standard, long-term memory, free video
management software and a preassembled VarioFlex wall/ceiling mount, in addition
to two HiRes image sensors. The weatherproof MxBus and MiniUSB interfaces allow
for direct connection of MOBOTIX interface boxes and standard devices such as UMTS
modules, additional memory, etc.
With the M15, one or two separately available MOBOTIX sensors modules (lens plus
sensor board and microphone) that can be replaced at any time are used in the M15
Core basic camera module. Twelve different sensor modules are available for the M15:
Six focal lengths from telephoto to hemispheric, each available in day or night versions.
With the Day&Night models with day and night sensors, the camera switches off to the
appropriate sensor depending on the lighting conditions.
The latest five-megapixel technology ensures crisp HiRes images with improved live digital
zoom and increased light sensitivity. In conjunction with the maximum image size of
2048x1536 pixels (QXGA), the camera produces clear color images, even at dusk or dawn.
At night, a single black and white sensor module now also produces high-resolution
images with up to 2048x1536 pixels. If both sensor images are displayed or recorded at
the same time, the M15 delivers dual images up to six megapixels.
The new model variant M15D-Thermal supplements the proven MOBOTIX technology
by a high-end thermal imaging sensor, which can reliably detect moving objects even
in total darkness.

MOBOTIX cameras, and a PDF manual can be downloaded from the MOBOTIX web-
site at no cost: www.mobotix.com > Support > Software Downloads. MOBOTIX also
