Adding Video Sources
Entering The Remote URL Of A Camera:
1. Open the MOBOTIX App and tap and hold the blue Camera button in the Live view. The shortcut menu
opens.
2. To add a new camera from outside the local network tap the Plus button. If the camera has already been
added in the local network, tap the Edit button (pencil icon) and select the video source from the camera
list. In both cases a new dialog box opens.
3. Enter the DynDNS name plus the router port for the video source for ”Remote URL” (for example, John-
Smith.dyndns.org:19801).
4. Enable the ”Remote” switch if you wish to access video sources remotely from the network environment
you are currently in. Remote access to local video sources should be disabled in your home Wi-Fi network,
as local access is usually faster (better performance).
5. Enable the ”SSL” switch if you wish to access video sources remotely from the network environment you
are currently in.
Setting o the SSL access to video sources in the local Wi-Fi network minimally decreases system security
while significantly increasing the transmission quality for the video sources (faster response times).
The video source’s environment settings entered here (URL/remote URL, active, remote and SSL) change
automatically when you enter a dierent network environment. As soon as your mobile device exits the local
Wi-Fi network, the App automatically enables the remote access settings (remote URL and SSL encryption). When
your mobile device returns to the local Wi-Fi network, the settings entered for this environment are restored
(URL, remote and SSL are disabled). If a video source is not being used in a network environment, make sure
to disable this source using the ”Active” switch. This reduces the bandwidth load caused by simultaneous
video streaming and avoids unnecessary connection attempts to an inaccessible address.
