Setting Up A Video Surveillance System
1.3 Setting Up A Video Surveillance System- Overview
We will describe the most important steps for basic installation in this section. These steps
are the same for all scenarios.
For thorough instructions regarding camera installation, see
Chapter 2 “Installation“ in
the corresponding
camera manual . For information on the power supply and connecting
cameras to the network, see the
section “Connecting The Camera To The Network And To
The Power Supply“
in the corresponding camera manual .
Mounting And Connecting The Cameras
•
Installing the Ethernet cable and mounting the cameras: Determine where you want
to mount the cameras. Run the Ethernet cable to the mounting position of the camera.
Mount the cameras and connect the Ethernet cable to the corresponding camera:
–
In the House example, one camera (Q24M) is mounted over the front door and the
other camera is mounted behind the house under the roof overhang.
– In the Gas Station example, two D24M-Sec cameras monitor the pumps in order
to record persons and vehicles. The shop camera is mounted in one corner of the
room and the register camera is mounted on the ceiling above the cash register
area in order to monitor both customers and the register.
– In the Hotel example, one Q24M-Sec is mounted at the main entrance of the hotel
and the corresponding ExtIO is mounted next to the door of the main entrance where
it serves as a door intercom. Two M24M-R16 cameras monitor the entrance and
the rear side of the underground garage. The remaining five Q24M-Sec cameras
are installed in the planned positions using In-Ceiling Sets (in the hallways of the
second and third floors, in the swimming pool area, in the gym, and above the
reception desk). The camera mounted above the reception desk is mounted in the
ceiling so as to monitor the entire reception area.
• Setting Up the Power Supply: Set up the power supply of the camera. Use either a
commercial PoE switch, MOBOTIX Network Power Racks or MOBOTIX power supply
units in conjunction with Network Power Adapters.
• Connecting the cameras: Connect the Ethernet cable from the cameras to the PoE
switch (or the Network Power Rack/Network Power Adapter). The PoE switch is con
-
nected to the local area network (LAN) via another Ethernet cable.
• Checking the cameras: Inspect the LEDs of the operating cameras to make sure that
they indicate that the camera is operating normally.
The MOBOTIX cameras are now ready to use and available in the local area network. They
can now be integrated into MxEasy.
