To view and dewarp video images in Security Desk that were captured using a Mobotix fisheye camera lens, you must configure the lens in Config Tool.

Before you begin

  • On the unit's web page, note the lens model information.
  • On the unit's web page, make sure the Display Mode is set to Full Image.

  2. Click the Hardware tab.
  3. From the Lens type drop-down list, select Mobotix.
