We recommend making a note of all numbers, regardless of whether they are custom numbers or numbers that have been assigned automatically by the system. The T24 User Data Record Card (see Section 3.2.2) is ideally suited for this task. Make sure that you store these records in a safe place.
T24 System Manual Part 2: Overview Of Application Scenarios 1.2.2 Multiple Doorbells And Voice Mailboxes (Addressees) In addition, the T24 system o ers the visitor the option of entering a special contact number on the keypad (similar to a telephone number) to trigger the doorbell to ring at the remote station of one specific user or user group (“addressee”).
You can also use multiple networked door stations to secure the main and side entrances of a house. To do so, select one of the door cameras as the master T24. This camera will be in charge of auto-configuration for all door stations and remote stations.

You can use MxEasy* to manage and operate up to 16 MOBOTIX cameras and/or door stations. The program can run in the background of a PC screen or touchpad with a standard operating system and pop up automatically when someone rings the doorbell.
IP communication MxEasy software When MxEasy is running, you can use an existing Internet connection to create a T24 remote station from which you can access all program functions. This way, you will receive video and audio signals when someone rings the doorbell at your house. You can view the live camera image on your monitor or display, speak with the visitor and operate the door lighting and the door opener remotely.
You will need a PC with MxEasy and a LAN connection in order to carry out the setup. We describe the basic process of configuring one or more T24 Video Door Station devices in networks with static IP addresses in Section 4.3. With this configuration, you can only startup the system using a computer with MxEasy.

Now proceed as described above in Section 4.1.3 from Step 3 onwards. You have now integrated a T24 into MxEasy via the Internet. Please note: For a computer with MxEasy that is remotely connected to the T24 via the Internet, any ringing on the door will only be signaled acoustically and optically if the computer (and the T24) are registered with a DynDNS service with the host name and the port of its Internet router in MxEasy as the remote station.
Backup And Restore Backup And Restore MOBOTIX provides functions for you to store a backup of the door station’s system configuration via a Grandstream video phone, as well as to restore the original settings in case the configuration has been accidentally changed.
1. Disconnect the door station from the power supply (for example, remove the network plug). 2. Exchange the T24-DoorMaster. Take care not to damage the cabling or mix up the connections. The connection diagrams are provided in the T24 System Manual Part 1.
3. Exchange the info modules. Take care not to damage the cabling or mix up the connections. The connection diagrams are provided in the T24 System Manual Part 1. 4. Power up the system again. After an automatic reboot, the door station is ready for operation again.
Matched units share the same network ID (see labels on the back of the info module and on the indoor unit’s circuit board). In case of a defect, both units must always be exchanged for a new Mx2wire pair that has been configured by MOBOTIX and shipped in its original packaging.
Note that in this case, you will have to set up all your PINs and transponder cards afresh. If you have any questions about how to proceed with this, contact your MOBOTIX dealer or the MOBOTIX support team.
