AXIS 216FD/FD-V/MFD/MFD-V - Troubleshooting

Emergency Recovery Procedure

If power or the network connection to the camera is lost during the upgrade, the process

will fail and the unit will become unresponsive. A flashing red Status LED indicates a failed

upgrade. To recover the unit, follow the steps below. The serial number is found on the

label attached to the bottom of the camera.

1. Unix/Linux - From the command line, type the following:

arp -s <IP address of camera> <Serial number> temp

ping -s 408 <IP address of camera>


Windows - From a command/DOS prompt, type the following:

arp -s <IP address of camera> <Serial number>

ping -l 408 -t <IP address of camera>

2. If the unit does not reply within a few seconds, restart it and wait for a reply. Press

CTRL+C to stop Ping.

3. Open a browser and type in the camera’s IP address. In the page that appears, use the

Browse button to select the upgrade file to use, e.g. axis216fd.bin. Then click the Load

button to restart the upgrade process.

4. After the upgrade has completed (1-10 minutes), the unit will automatically restart and

show a steady green on the Power and Status LEDs and flashing green or amber on the

Network LED.

5. Referring to the installation guide, reinstall the camera.

If the emergency recovery procedure does not get the camera up and running again, please

contact Axis support at www.axis.com/techsup/
