Use the Privacy Mode, if you would like to deactivate the whole system, i.e. recording and any kind of camera access is rendered impossible until you deactivate this mode. While this lock can be deactivated directly from this computer, you will need the user name and password set in this dialog to deactivate the lock from a different computer. Note that the cameras are also signaling this operating mode by a specific LED blinking pattern.
To activate this mode, enter a user name and password, then click on the Set button.
This mode becomes effective immediately after you click on the Set button. If you would like to access the camera again, you need to use the access data you defined when activating the Privacy Mode.
The camera only accepts the access data (user name and password) you defined in the Privacy Mode dialog. Without these access data, you cannot deactivate the Privacy Mode any more.
The camera's entire image generation process is deactivated.
Recording is deactivated completely.
The camera's audio channel is switched off.
The camera shows a distinctive blinking pattern so you can see that the cameras are in this mode (see below).
The different MOBOTIX cameras are displaying the following blinking patterns once they have been switched to Privacy Mode:
Camera Type |

Proceed as follows to deactivate the Privacy Mode:
Start a browser, enter the IP address of the camera and enter the access data you defined before.

).
