Problem with AMC.
(Internet Explorer only)

To enable the updating of video images in Microsoft Internet Explorer, set your browser to allow ActiveX controls.
Also, make sure that AXIS Media Control (AMC) component is installed on your workstation.

Installation of additional ActiveX
component restricted or prohibited

Configure your camera to use a Java applet for updating the video images under
Live View Config > Layout > Default Viewer for Internet Explorer. See the online help for more information.

Video/Image problems, general

Image too dark or too light

Check the video image settings. See the online help on Video and Image Settings.

Missing images in uploads

This can occur when trying to use a larger image buffer than is actually available. Try lowering the frame rate or
the upload period.

Slow image update

Configuring, e.g. pre-buffers, motion detection, high-resolution images, high frame rates, etc, will reduce the per-
formance of the camera.

Poor performance

Poor performance may be caused by e.g. heavy network traffic, multiple users accessing the unit, low performance
clients, use of features such as motion detection or event handling.

Poor quality snapshot images

Screen incorrectly configured on your
workstation

In Display Properties, configure your screen to show at least 65000 colors, i.e. at least 16-bit. Using only 16 or 256
colors will produce dithering artifacts in the image.

Browser freezes

Netscape 7.x or Mozilla 1.4 (or later)
can sometimes freeze on a slow com-
puter

Lower the image resolution.

Motion Detection triggers unexpectedly

Changes in luminance

Motion detection is based upon changes in luminance in the image. This means that if there are sudden changes in
the lighting, motion detection may be triggered mistakenly. Lower the sensitivity setting to avoid problems with
luminance.
