recommended browser is Internet Explorer with Microsoft Windows, and Firefox with
other operating systems. See also the Technical specifications, on page 69.

2. Enter the IP address or host
name of AXIS 243SA in the Location/Address field of your browser.

Note: To view streaming video in Microsoft Internet Explorer, set your web browser to allow the installation of
AXIS Media Control (AMC) on your computer. AMC is required to enable audio in the AXIS 243SA. AMC also
provides an MPEG-4 decoder for viewing MPEG-4 video streams. This decoder is installed the first time an
MPEG-4 video stream is accessed. Please note that the product administrator may have disabled the instal-
lation of the decoder, as a license is required for each instance. See page 30 for more information.
If your workstation restricts the use of additional software components, the AXIS 243SA can be configured
to use a Java applet for updating JPEG images. Please see the online help for more information.
