Power/Status
You can find detailed information on the
installation
and
connections of the c26 in the Q25 Camera Manual
(PDF, available on
www.mobotix.com
> Support >
Manuals).
Please note that the boot options of this camera have changed compared
to its predecessor (see
«Boot Options of the c26» on page 2) and the
camera only has one key. Regarding the rest of the
initial operation of the
c26, please see the
Q25 Camera Manual in Chapter 3, «Initial Operation».
Use a suitable device for operating the camera key (e.g., an opened paper
clip).
Installing the MxIOBoard-IC
For the c26, you can use the optionally available MxIOBoard-IC to attach external sensors using the signal inputs
and to switch other devices via the signal outputs.
1. Insert the MxIOBoard-IC
On the back of the camera, remove the sticker
that protects the receptacle and the camera’s
interior from collecting dirt (see red arrow in
figure to the right).
Carefully push the module board onto the
receptacle.
When attaching the connection wires to the
MxIOBoard-IC, make sure the wires are guided
to the module without tension (you could apply
a cable tie and tie the wires to the network
cable, for example).
2. Attach the connection cables
Attach the connection wires as shown in the terminal connector overview.

MxBus functionality is only available with a later hardware
release of the camera.

Inserting/Exchanging the SD Card
All camera models can use the integrated MicroSD card (SDXC) to record video data. In order to exchange the MicroSD card, please proceed as outlined in
the following instruction. For information on reliable SD cards, please see the MOBOTIX website
www.mobotix.com
> Support > MxMedia Library >
Planning in the document MicroSD Card Whitelist for MOBOTIX Cameras. If the camera has not yet been installed, skip step 1.
Caution:
In order to avoid damage from electrostatic discharge, you should touch a grounded device before opening the housing of the camera (e.g.,
the blank metal at the back of a computer). This will remove any static electricity that may have built up.
1. Remove camera, remove cables
Pull the camera from its position by gently pulling
the camera downward on one side, then the other
side.
Take care to NOT let the spring clips snap
forward (this may hurt you!).
Remove all cables
that are attached to the connectors on the back side.
2. Locate the locks
In order to remove the back plate, you will need to
push the delivered disassembly tool (item 1.9) into
the three holes on the back one after the other to
release the locks (see red circles in figure).
3. Remove back plate
Insert the disassembly tool into a lock and press
firmly until you feel a perceptible resistance

.
Gently push against the nearest spring clip to push
the lock out of its seat and to lift the back plate
from the housing
2
.
Repeat the process for the two other locks and
cautiously lift the back plate from the housing.
4. Remove/insert SD card
If a MicroSD card has been installed, gently press
with your finger as indicated by the arrow until
you hear a
click. Then release the SD card. The
card is protruding slightly and can be easily
removed.
Insert the new MicroSD card and gently press
with your finger as indicated by the arrow until
you hear the
click.
5. Attach back plate
Make sure that the SD card is properly locked
in place, since the card can be damaged oth-
erwise.
Begin by inserting the wide lock (next
to the SD card) into the camera housing as
shown. From the factory, the lock and the cor-
responding slot are highlighted by
color mark
.
Make sure that the two other locks are also
properly positioned, then press the back plate
into its seat until you hear all three locks click
into place.
6. Re-connect the cables
Insert the Ethernet cable and – if installed – the
USB cable into the corresponding sockets and
secure the connectors using the blue bayonet
catches.
Press the spring clips back and insert the
camera into its original mounting position
(see
«Installing the c26»).
To finish, make sure that the camera image is properly aligned: If required,
cautiously turn the camera to adjust image alignment.

Installing the c26
Use the drilling template on the back for this purpose (red circle) or draw a circle with 105 mm/4.13 in diameter for the
cut-out. Cut out the hole for the camera, then guide the Ethernet cable and any other cables you want to attach to the
camera through the hole.
1. Connect the cables
Insert the cables into the appropriate connec-
tors and fasten them using the blue bayonet
catches.
Make sure that the camera points into the desired
direction: The icon on the back (black arrow)
shows the "up" direction of the image.
2. Install the c26
Press the spring clips back and insert the c26
into the hole for the camera. The spring clips
will snap outwards, thus firmly holding the
camera in place.
Make sure that you only press back the spring
clips as shown in the image. Do not press them
back any further as the springs may snap out
of their fixtures otherwise.
