/144 MxEasy User Manual: System Configuration 1 Introduction To MxEasy Congratulations on your decision to select video security products from MOBOTIX. MOBOTIX offers you intelligent, high-resolution camera technology Made in Germany. The MxEasy software provides you with full control of your video security system. 1.1 General Information We introduce you to the concept and the ideas behind MOBOTIX MxEasy in the first chapter.
Introduction To MxEasy 9/144 Once the cameras are integrated into the system, you can use MxEasy to comfortably control the most important functions of the connected cameras. Virtual zooming, panning and tilting in the live image are just as easy as activating manual or scheduled recording times. The video data recorded by the cameras can then be viewed and exported in different formats (e.g., MxPEG or AVI with different codecs) at a later time.
/144 MxEasy User Manual: System Configuration 1.2 Example Scenarios The following examples are possible ways to use MxEasy. They contain information about the required components and setup for the individual scenarios: • House with two cameras • Gas station with four cameras • Hotel with nine cameras For a brief overview of all important steps for installing and configuring this type of s urveillance system, see Section 1.3, “Setting Up A Video Surveillance System ‑ Overview“.
Example Scenarios 1.2.1 11/144 House With Two Cameras This scenario consists of two MOBOTIX cameras that guard the entrance and the rear of a house. When the homeowner is away for the weekend, these cameras use integrated video and infrared motion sensors to detect unwanted movements around the house. In the case of an alarm, the video sequences are recorded by the cameras. In addition, this triggers a call to a phone and sends the images via e-mail.
/144 MxEasy User Manual: System Configuration 1.2.2 Gas Station With Four Cameras In this scenario, a gas station is guarded using a MOBOTIX system. Two cameras record the events at the pumps, the camera in the shop monitors the repair shop, and the camera above the register records the entire cash register area. The cameras are set up to record video and audio data at a continuous rate of two frames per second during business hours. This continuous recording is deactivated outside of the opening hours.
Example Scenarios 13/144 1.2.3 Hotel With Nine Cameras An entire hotel is guarded using a MOBOTIX system in this scenario. The cameras at the main entrance and the delivery entrance are event-controlled. Each of these cameras is connected to a MOBOTIX ExtIO. Additionally, these cameras can be used as a door intercom and to remotely open the doors. There are two event-controlled cameras in the underground garage that record the comings and goings of cars and people.
