Setting Up Axis Camera

[gadet]

This can be due to your camera retaining it's IP from previous years. Did you change the static IP of the camera at any time?

Our team encountered this problem a while back and to find the IP that we changed the camera to, we had to use Wireshark and sniff out the packets from the camera.

Interesting.. we didn't change the static IP of the camera.
Shouldn't the IP reset to 198.168.0.90 when I push the reset button?
I'll try to use the wire shark for sniffing it.

Thanks!

Another thing I forgot to mention that we tried to use to Axis Setup tool and it didn't work too..
So should it find the camera even if it stay with it's older IP?

The process to reset the Axis cameras is a bit more than just pressing the reset button. (What, do you want everything to be easy? )

Here is the process from the M1013 user's manual.

1. Disconnect power from the product.
2. Press and hold the Control button and reconnect power (see Hardware Overview, on page 4 ).
3. Keep the Control button pressed for about 15 seconds until the Status indicator flashes amber.
4. Release the Control button. The process is complete after about 1 minute (when the Status indicator turns green). The
product has been reset to the factory default settings. The default IP address is 192.168.0.90
5. Re-assign the IP address.
