3.1.1 Activating the USB Operating Mode
To activate the USB operating mode, open the Admin Menu> Manage Hardware
Expansions dialog in the camera's browser interface. The ExtIO connected to the
camera starts after you click the Connect button in front of the ExtIO (USB) entry.
Once the green LED is on permanently, the ExtIO has successfully connected to the
camera. The remaining configuration can now be performed in the camera soft-
ware.
Note that you can activate the USB operating mode in the camera even though you
have not connected the ExtIO yet, e.g. to prepare the MOBOTIX camera for using
an ExtIO later on. Once you attach any ExtIO to the camera, the camera software
will automatically establish the connection. There is no further configuration
required.

MOBOTIX ExtIO User Manual
Activating the USB oper-
ating mode of the ExtIO
Note
Note that you can activate the USB operating mode even though
you have not connected the ExtIO yet. In this case, the ExtIO will
start automatically once the USB cable has been attached. This
approach allows preconfiguring the camera for an ExtIO connec-
tion before mounting it.
Note that you can use an ExtIO configured for USB operation with
an Ethernet connection without any problems later on. All settings
in the camera software remain unchanged even if you change the
operating mode at a later point in time.
