OPERATING THE CAMERA

MOBOTIX cameras do not require any extra software. Thus, you can set up and operate the
MOBOTIX camera using a JavaScript-enabled browser on all common operating systems
(such as Window, Linux, Macintosh, etc.). As an alternative, you can also use the MOBOTIX
applications MxControlCenter and MxEasy. Follow these steps to set up the camera:
1.

Power is supplied directly via the network

Every MOBOTIX camera comes preconfigured with a fixed IP address in the 10.x.x.x range
(e.g.
10.8.0.99
). However, local computer networks usually have IP addresses in the
172 or 192 ranges. In order to access a MOBOTIX camera via the network, the camera
needs to obtain an IP address in the same address range. You can
set up the network
parameters of the MOBOTIX camera using one of the following methods
