AXIS 2120 User’s Manual Choosing Your Application 41
Installation and Configuration Overview
Configure the AXIS 2120 for viewing images over a remote dial-up modem connection as follows:
Note: Except for when the AXIS 2120 is dialing-out, you can refine or amend the product configuration
at any time using a remote Dial-up connection - or a local computer connected via the supplied
Null Modem Cable.
Uploading Images to Your Internet Service Provider
Perfect for Web attractions, remote monitoring and process control applications; the AXIS 2120
can be quickly configured to dial-out from any remote location and transmit live images to an
Internet Service Provider - where your images can then be accessible to several specific users, or the
whole Internet community! You can select any of the supported Public ISPs supported in the
Application Wizard, or specify a Public or Private ISP of your own choosing.
Having established the Dial-up connection for your AXIS 2120 using the Installation Wizard,
continue with your configuration using the Application Wizard to develop an active application,
which uploads live images to a designated ISP over standard phone lines. You can arrange for image
files to be transmitted as a sequential stream, or only at specified time periods; and you can set the
times and frequency at which images are taken and uploaded to your ISP.
1. Connect the AXIS 2120 to the network if available. Otherwise, use the supplied Null Modem Cable. Connect a computer
and initiate a dial-up connection to the camera. For this and general information on the dial-up connection, refer to
Installing Your Camera to a Modem on page 19.
2. Create a dedicated dial-up Connection.
3. Refine the dial-up parameters.
4. Initiate the dial-up connection.
5. Referring to Configuring Your Camera on page 25, open the product Home Page in your browser and start the
Installation Wizard. Complete the Wizard to establish the standard Security, Date and Time, Image General Layout and
Modem settings - selecting modem as your chosen method of connection.
6. Disconnect the AXIS 2120 from the network or Null Modem Cable and connect it directly to the modem.
7. The application setup is complete. You should now verify the installation by remotely accessing the AXIS 2120 Web pages
from your browser via the connected modem.
