Axis Camera Configuration Issues

[rich2202]

First, reset the camera to factory defaults
Note: The control button is the only button on the back.

To reset the camera to the factory default settings using the Control Button:
1. Disconnect the power cable, or if using PoE, disconnect the network cable.
2. Press and hold the Control button while reconnecting power.
3. Keep the Control button pressed until the Status Indicator color changes to amber (this may take up to 15 seconds).
4. Release the Control button.
5. When the Status Indicator changes to green (which may take up to 1 minute), the process is complete and the camera has been reset.

The unit now has the default IP address 192.168.0.90

manually set the IP address on your computer to: 192.168.0.5, with a subnet mask of: 255.255.255.0

Plug the network cables of your camera and your computer into a hub or switch.

Plug in the power on the camera. Give the camera a minute to boot up.

Open up a browser on your computer, and surf to: 192.168.0.90

If you can see the camera, then you can proceed with programming it. If you can't see the camera, then it may be broke.

Personally, I follow the Manual Camera Configuration instructions here (about 1/2 way down the page):
