are not enabled. In order to activate event-controlled recording, open Setup Menu > General

window in the live image (dotted frame in the center) and the camera automatically stores
images as soon as the motion detection window detects movements.
3.7.6 Deactivating Text and Logo Options
Ascameraarmingisdeactivatedinthecamera’sdefaultconguration(seeprecedingsec-
tion), the MOBOTIX camera only displays the text www.mobotix.com, the time stamp
and the MOBOTIX logo at the top of the image. Once the camera arming has been activated,
the text at the bottom of the live image (event, action, messaging and recording symbols)
will also appear.
You can deactivate the status bar at the bottom of the live image and the text bar in the
tople-handcornerbysettingTextDisplayintheSetup Menu > Text & Display Settings
dialog box to O. Setting Text Display to Date and Time will only display the time stamp in
the live image. To hide the logo in the live image, open
Admin Menu > Logo Proles and
set Logo Display to Deactivated.
3.7.7 DeactivatingtheCameraReboot
By factory default, the MOBOTIX camera automatically reboots once a week between 3 a.m.
and4a.m.Thereasonforthisisthatinsomerarecases,externalinuences(forexample,
radiation at high altitudes) can sometimes lead to camera malfunctions. The automatic
rebootwillrefreshthecamera’smemoryandwillensureproperoperationwithoutrequiring
any interaction on the part of the user. If desired, you can deactivate the automatic reboot
of the camera in the
Admin Menu > Time Tasks dialog box.
If the dotted rectangle in
the live image is visible,
the camera is armed
Text and logos can be
also deactivated or indi-
viduallycongured
