Modem Applications

If a local network connection is not available where you want to use your AXIS 2110, you can alternatively connect your AXIS 2110 to a V.90-compatible modem and quickly configure any number of exciting applications using the Wizards; including:

• Viewing images in a fully custom-designed Web page over a Dial-up modem connection.

• Sequentially uploading images to an ISP (Internet Service Provider) over a Dial-up modem connection and publishing images to the whole Internet community.

• Uploading single or pre/post alarm image sequences to your ISP over a Dial-up modem con- nection, when an alarm or time-based event occurs; and optionally, sending an e-mail alert containing the whole buffer and a link to the camera.

Important!

•Although the AXIS 2110 is compatible with most V.90-compliant modems, Axis undertakes NO responsibility for V.90 modems that do not work with the product.

•When the AXIS 2110 is dialing out it will obviously not be possible to dial-in to it. If you configure an interval during which the camera will not be dialling out, this will allow you to dial-in and make any necessary changes etc.

Configuration

All modem applications must initially be configured from a browser on a local computer. If available you should always use an Ethernet network for this purpose, even if the actual application will be using a modem. If there is no network available, you can instead use the supplied Null Modem Cable to create a direct connection to the AXIS 2110 from the computer. This direct connection is only intended as an alternative for the initial configuration of the modem application when there is no network available. The Null Modem Cable should not be used for any other purpose.

Note: Once the Dial-up modem connection has been created and the AXIS 2110 is physically connected to the modem, you will be able to dial up your AXIS 2110 in exactly the same way as you would your ISP - with no further configuration! Use the Installation and Application Wizards to establish the basic parameters for your application. Advanced users can use the Administration Tools to refine the application after the basic configu- ration has been established using the Wizards.
