Reset to factory default settings

Important

Reset to factory default should be used with caution. A reset to factory default resets all settings, including the IP address, to
the factory default values.

To reset the product to the factory default settings:

1. Disconnect power from the product.

2. Press and hold the control button while reconnecting power. See

Product overview on page 41

.

3. Keep the control button pressed for 10 seconds until the status LED indicator turns amber for the second time.

4. Release the control button. The process is complete when the status LED indicator turns green. The product has been reset

to the factory default settings. If no DHCP server is available on the network, the default IP address is

192.168.0.90

.

5. Use the installation and management software tools, assign an IP address, set the password, and access the product.

You can also reset parameters to factory default through the device’s webpage. Go to

particular problem.

To check the current firmware:

1. Go to the device interface >

Status

.

2. See the firmware version under

Device info

.

Upgrade the firmware

Important

• Preconfigured and customized settings are saved when you upgrade the firmware (provided that the features are available in

the new firmware) although this is not guaranteed by Axis Communications AB.

• Make sure the device remains connected to the power source throughout the upgrade process.

Note

When you upgrade the device with the latest firmware in the active track, the product receives the latest functionality
available. Always read the upgrade instructions and release notes available with each new release before you upgrade the
firmware. To find the latest firmware and the release notes, go to
