The Factory Default Settings
In certain circumstances, it may be necessary to reinstate the Factory Default settings for
your AXIS 2460. This is performed in one of two ways:
• By pressing the Factory Default Button, located on the rear panel. This option will reset
ALL the parameters currently configured in the unit, i.e. network settings, events, etc.
• By clicking the Restore button from the Maintainence page under System Options. This
action will reset most of the unit’s parameters but will save the IP-address, the Subnet
mask, the Default Router and the Mac (Ethernet) address.
Follow the instructions below to reinstate the product factory default settings using the
Control Button:
1. Switch off the AXIS 2460 by pressing the Power button on the front panel.
2. Press and hold the Factory Default Button pressed, and press the Power button again.
3. Keep the Factory Default Button pressed until the Status Indicator displays yellow (note
that this may take up to 15 seconds), then release the Control Button. When the Status
Indicator displays green (which can take up to several minutes) the AXIS 2460 will
then have been reset to the original factory default settings.
Note: Both methods of resetting to the factory default settings will also format all the con-
nected hard disks.
