Assigning the IP address
The ExCam IPM1145-(L) s an Ethernet network camera requiring an IP address to ac-
cess it. Usually a DHCP server is integrated in most networks which automatically as-
signs an IP address. In case there is no DHCP server available in the network, the
ExCam IPM1145-
(L)’s default address “192.168.0.90” (subnet masking 255.255.255.0) is
used.
With the “AXIS IP Utility“, it is possible to determine the IP address under Win-
dows; the included USB stick contains this application. It is also available for download:

In case it is not possible to assign the IP address, it might be necessary
to change the firewall settings or t consult the network administrator!
The “AXIS IP Utility“ tool automatically recognizes all ExCam devices and displays them
(also applies to the subnet). It can also be used to manually assign a static IP address.
Please note that the ExCam IPM1145-(L) network camera has to be installed within the
same network segment (physical subnet) as the computer on which the “AXIS IP Utility”
tool is executed.
For example, the ExCam IPM1145 has the following default network marking:
„AXIS
M1145
– ACCC8E3A4EBB“ (q.v. figure 6.1). MAC address and serial number are also
determined and displayed so that a non-ambiguous identification is possible. The net-
work name (host name) of the network camera (web server) can be changed as desired
by the user (max. 64 characters).
