Before the AXIS 206W can connect to an encrypted wireless network, the wireless settings

in the camera must be configured and an IP address must be set. This is done by

instructions below.

Set up the wireless connection - Windows

1. Connect the power adapter to the camera. Press the power cable into the cable clip on

the rear panel. This will help prevent accidental cable disconnection.

2. Connect the USB

cable to your

to the camera.

AXIS 206W should

be displayed as a

for the AXIS 206W to see the files contained in the camera.
