All changes are temporary
All changes to the configuration are only temporary and can thus be tested easily.
Restoring the previous configuration settings can be achieved using the
Restore
button in most dialogs or by running
Admin Menu > Restore last stored configu-
ration from flash
(see also section 5.9,
Managing Settings, in the Software Man-
ual).
Once you have finished configuring the camera, you should always
store the set-
tings in the camera's permanent memory
. You can do so in each dialog (clicking
on
Set
at the bottom of each dialog will temporarily set the changes; clicking on
Close
will ask you to store the complete configuration in the cameras permanent
memory) or in the
Configuration
section of the administration menu (
Admin
Menu > Store current configuration into flash memory
).
The
Configuration
section of the administration menu provides more functions for
storing, copying and managing camera settings. For additional information on this
topic, see chapter 5,
Basic Camera Configuration, in the Software Manual.
A camera that keeps time
Apart from a multitude of possibilities for controlling the camera using time (time
tables, holiday and vacation, scheduled tasks, etc.), the camera can also
synchro-
nize its internal clock
. This allows you to keep the camera in synch manually with
a computer or fully automatic using a time server or another MOBOTIX camera.
The camera can use NTP time servers or time servers providing Time Protocol (RFC
868). For additional information on this topic, see section 5.4.2,
Date and Time /
Time Zones and Time Servers, in the Software Manual.
The “More” and “Less” buttons
When opening some of the camera dialogs, only the most important configuration
options are displayed by default. These dialogs have a
More
button in the bottom
right corner; click on it to display additional options. If all options are displayed,
click on the
Less
button to hide the additional options.
