Support
The Support Overview page provides valuable information on troubleshooting and contact information,
should you require technical assistance.
System Overview - is a quick look over the camera’s status and settings. Information that can be found here
includes the camera’s Firmware version, IP address, Security, Optional Network Services, Event Settings,
Image settings and Recent log items. Many of the captions are also links to the proper Setup page to
conveniently make adjustments in the camera’s settings.
Logs & Reports - When contacting Axis support, please be sure to provide a valid Server Report with your
query.
Advanced
Scripting is an advanced function that provides the means for customizing and using scripts.
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 will be useful for returning the unit to its latest configuration).
Axis strongly recommends that you do not use this function unless you fully understand its
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.
