Q26 Camera Manual: Operating the Camera
• Set up actions/messaging: Upon detecting an event, the MOBOTIX camera can trigger
alarms. These alarms can be adjusted to your needs and you can assign them to a specific
event: playing back an alarm sound on the camera speaker, showing the visual alarm
in the camera live image, sending an e-mail or network message with the alarm image,
placing a phone call, uploading an alarm image to an FTP server, switching a signal
output line of the camera (for example, for switching on the lights/opening a door).
For the settings, see
Setup Menu > Action Group Overview. The actions to be per-
formed are defined and used in these action groups in the form of “action profiles.”
The different action profiles can also be defined in the following areas: Admin Menu in
the Hardware Configuration (profiles for signal output), Transfer Profiles (FTP, e-mail,
network messages) and Sound and VoIP Telephony (sound profiles, VoIP profiles). For
more information, refer to the online help for the
Action Group Overview
dialog box.
• Activate shock detector: The Q26 is also equipped with a shock detector as standard.
If, for example, the camera’s housing receives a blow, it automatically registers it and
sends a notification via a network message or telephone call. A general advantage is
that MOBOTIX cameras are extremely tough because of the absence of mechanical
moving parts. This allows them to stay fully operational when they are subject to
strong vibrations. Open the
Setup Menu > Event Control > Environment Events >
Edit dialog box if you would like to activate the shock detector (and any other sensors).
