Maintenance

This section provides tools for the following:

•Restart - Clicking this button will restart the AXIS 230.

•Restore - This button will reset the camera to its factory default settings. Once this has been done, many of the unit’s parameters will need to be re-configured. The only settings saved are the IP address, the default router and the subnet mask. See also, on page 38, the description of how to reset to the factory default settings using the Reset button on the rear of the camera.
