Long-term storage included
MOBOTIX cameras (IT and Secure models) feature an integrated long-term storage
system for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X computers. Every camera manages its own
ring buffer storage space on the shared folder. Thanks to this decentralized technol-
ogy, 30 live cameras can store images on a regular Pentium 4-class computer with
30fps each, including audio (depending on the operating system).
Event storage on the integrated CF card (optional)
For most applications, the MOBOTIX-installed CF card provides more than enough
storage space, since this flash card (2GB and higher) stores the audio/video data
permanently, even after power failures. If long-term storage on a file server has
been set up, the CF card adds yet another layer of security against loss of data, as
the flash card can easily bridge longer network outages.
30 live cameras using MxControlCenter
Instead of using a web browser, you can also download the free
MxControlCenter for Windows from www.mobotix.com,
which allows displaying up to 30 MOBOTIX cameras on one
monitor (Linux and Mac OSX versions are currently being devel-
oped). In addition, MxControlCenter can process incoming
alarms from the cameras and allows comfortably searching and
evaluating the alarm video clips (including audio*). The integrated
Layout Editor of MxControlCenter provides for quickly creating
floor plans by simply dragging/dropping the cameras onto a background image.
Load a floor plan as background image, drag&drop the cameras; done.
Event and time-controlled
Just like event-controlled recording upon detecting movements in the image, the ca-
mera can also record when the volume picked up by the microphone exceeds a set
trigger value (audio-capable models only*). Using scheduled recording that takes
into consideration vacation times and holidays, time tasks can start or stop video re-
cording, uploading of images to a web site or sending of e-mails with video/audio*
clips.
Remote alerting
In case of an alarm, MOBOTIX cameras automatically pop up windows or activate
other functions at a remote security control center. The cameras can use network/wi-
reless, GSM/GPRS/UMTS (3G) or Internet connections for this purpose (a GSM/GPRS/
UMTS modem can be connected to the serial interface of MOBOTIX M12/D12 models).
Day & Night
The Night versions of the M22M-IT/Secure models deliver crisp and clear images of
moving objects even at night since they use a special black and white image sensor.
Depending on the lighting conditions, you can use infrared light to enhance the
lighting, since the B/W sensor system is IR-sensitive (in contrast to the human eye).
