Caution!
The scripting function is a very powerful tool. Improper use may cause unexpected
behavior or even loss of contact with the unit. If a script does cause problems, reset the
unit to its factory default settings (in which case, a previously saved backup file is useful
for returning the unit to its latest configuration). Axis recommends that you do not use
this function unless you fully understand the consequences. Axis support provides no
assistance for customized scripts.

Plain Config - this function is for the advanced user with previous experience of
configuring Axis cameras. All parameters can be set and modified from this page. Help is
available via the links on the standard setup pages.
Resetting to Factory Default Settings
To reset the cameras to the original factory default settings, go to the System Options >
Maintenance web page (as described in Maintenance, on page 51) or use the Control
button on the side of the camera (see page 7) as described below:
Using the Control Button
To reset the cameras to the factory default settings using the Control Button:
1. Disconnect the power adapter, or the network cable if using PoE
(AXIS 210A/AXIS 211A only).
2. Press and hold the Control button while reconnecting the 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 cameras has been reset. The unit now has the default
IP address 192.168.0.90.
Note: For other methods of setting the IP address, please refer to the product’s Installation Guide that accompa-
nies the product, or download a copy from www.axis.com
