M16andDierentSensorModules
A range of combination options are provided that change
theavailabledisplaymodesandcongurationpossibilities
byusingtheMOBOTIXM16withdierentsensormodules.
Because of this, a M16 automatically detects which sensor
modules are installed and proceeds as follows:
•
Whenthecameraisstartedforthersttime,itdetects
the connected sensor modules and captures their data
(focal length, day or night version).
•
If only one sensor module is connected, the camera acts
as a mono camera (meaning that there is no automatic
day/night switching, etc.).
• Ifthereisnochangewithintherst12hoursofopera-
tion, the camera writes the details of these sensor mod-
ulestothecameraconguration.
•
With every restart, the camera checks if the stored sen-
sormodulesarepresent.Ifthesensorconguration
has changed in the meantime (e.g., because a sensor module has been exchanged),
the camera shows a corresponding message in the live image
. To store the changed
