Accessing the Camera
To install the camera on the network, please see the supplied installation guide. The camera can be used with most standard
operating systems and browsers. The recommended browser is Microsoft Internet Explorer with Windows, Safari with Mac OS
and Firefox with other operating systems.
Notes:
To view streaming video in Microsoft Internet Explorer, set your browser to allow ActiveX controls and allow
the AXIS Media Control (AMC) to be installed on your workstation.
QuickTime
TM
and Real Player
TM
are also supported for viewing streaming MPEG-4 video and audio.
If your workstation restricts the use of additional software components, the camera can be configured to use
a Java applet for viewing Motion JPEG.
The AXIS 212 PTZ/-V includes one (1) decoder license for viewing MPEG-4 video streams. This is automatically
installed with AMC. The administrator can disable the installation of the MPEG-4 decoder, to prevent
unlicensed copies being installed.

2. Enter the IP address or host name of the camera in the Location/Address
field of your browser.
To access the camera from a Macintosh computer (Mac OSX), simply click
on the Bonjour tab and select the AXIS 212 PTZ from the drop-down list.

name and password, as set by the administrator.

browser.

The layout of the Live View page may have been
customized to specific requirements. Consequently, some
of the examples and functions featured here may differ
from those displayed on your own Live View page.
Setting the Root Password
