3.8.4 Permanently Deactivating the Microphone
Deactivating a cameras microphone may be necessary in order to protect the privacy of
persons at a workplace or for other reasons. You can permanently and irreversibly deac
-
tivate the microphone in the Admin Menu> Loudspeaker and Microphone dialog box.
Caution
This deactivation occurs in the camera module itself and cannot be reversed,
even at the factory. Deactivating the microphone will also deactivate all functions
that are making use of the microphone.
3.8.5 Starting the Camera with the Factory IP Address
If the cameras IP address is not known, you can start the camera with its factory IP
address. This procedure is described in detail in
Section 3.2.6, «Starting the Camera with
an Automatic IP Address (DHCP)»
.
3.8.6 Resetting the Camera to Factory Settings
All settings of the MOBOTIX camera can be reset permanently to the factory default settings.
This makes sense if you have, for example, obtained a camera without any information
or you would like to reset all settings after testing the camera. In order to perform this
procedure, you need to have administrative access to the camera (admins group). Open
Admin Menu > Reset to reset the camera to factory defaults.
Note
All defined users are deleted and the admin password is reset to the factory default
when you reset the camera using Admin Menu > Reset. Use the method described in
Section 3.2.6, «Starting the Camera with an Automatic IP Address (DHCP)» if you would
like to maintain the existing users.
3.8.7 Activating Event Control and Motion Detection
In its default configuration, the cameras event control and video motion detection features
are not enabled. In order to activate event-controlled recording, open Setup Menu>
General Event Settings and activate the Arming switch. Another method is to click on the
Arm & Record softbutton in the browsers user interface. The camera displays the motion
detection window in the live image (dotted frame in the center) and the camera auto
-
matically stores images as soon as the motion detection window detects movements.
The microphone can be
irreversibly deactivated!
