Verifying the Modem Connection...
Having initiated your Dial-up connection, as described above, you can quickly verify the integrity of
the connection by accessing the AXIS 2120 using a standard Web browser; such as Netscape or
Internet Explorer as follows:
Reinstating the Factory Default Settings
In certain circumstances, it may be necessary to reinstate the
Factory Default
settings
for your AXIS
2120. This is performed by clicking the appropriate button within the
Administration Tools
,
or
by
pressing the
Control Button
. Follow the instructions below to reinstate the product factory default
settings, using the Control button:
1. Switch off the AXIS 2120 by disconnecting the power cable.
2. Using a suitably pointed object, press and continue to hold the Control Button depressed.
Note:
The Control Button is located to the left of the lens on the front panel of the unit.
While continuing to hold the Control Button depressed, reconnect the power supply cable.
3. When the Status Indicator is lit permanently yellow, release the Control Button. The unit will
restart automatically after approximately 5 seconds.
Your AXIS 2120 is now reset to the original factory default settings.
Note:
With the exception of the product Ethernet address, reinstating the original default settings causes
all parameters (including the IP address) to be reset.
Focusing Your Camera
If you are unable to view your video images directly from your chosen point of installation, follow
the instructions below to achieve a good basic level of focus for your AXIS 2120:
Since the AXIS 2120 emulates a DNS server, type in
any URL in the Location/Site field of your browser to
display the AXIS 2120 Home Page, as defined below.
Now, configure the unit using the
Installation
Wizard
or the
Administration Tools
.

To exit the Focus Assistant: press and hold the Control button until
the Status Indicator flashes

Turn the lens to its extreme Far-focus (F,

Turn the lens to its extreme
Near-focus (N) position.
Power on the AXIS 2120 and then wait at least 10 sec.
Return to your browser

picture quality. Repeat step 5

distance as too distant - until
you are satisfied with both the
focal-distance and focus-quality.
