Abbreviations Used in the MOBOTIX Camera

The abbreviations (also called 'symbols') listed in the table below are displayed at the bottom of the camera images. They inform you about camera events and actions as well as errors and display status information.

These shortcuts are visible in the Live images, the stored images and the event stories. For example, using the abbreviations displayed in the Player images you can identify the event that has triggered the storage of an image or event story.

Event Names

Event names are displayed in the lower left corner of the image and indicate the activated events. Symbols are only shown for activated events.

Color Coding of Event Names Using the UserClick Example

Triggered Red UserClick  
Event Dead Time Grey UserClick Only, if an Event Dead Time has been set for the corresponding event profile.

Action symbols

These symbols are displayed in the lower right corner of the image and indicate that the corresponding action or message is active. Parentheses enclosing a group of symbols indicate their shared membership of an Action Group A "|" (pipe character) between these symbols means that they are executed simultaneously, ">" means consecutively in the order shown.
