Restoring the Factory Network Settings
In some cases, it may be necessary to restore the network settings of the camera
to the original factory settings. At each power up, the system transmits a packet
and then checks to determine if that same packet has been received. Detection
of the received packet indicates the camera has a custom loopback connector
installed on its Ethernet interface. The detection of the loopback packet cues the
camera to restore factory defaults and to revert to the same configuration and
behavior as when the camera left the factory.
The following table describes the loopback connector.
The RJ45 loopback termination ties pin 1 to pin 3, and pin 2 to pin 6. The other
pins are not connected.
