Remote Imaging in a Custom-designed Web Page

The AXIS 2100 can be configured as a standalone application that is completely remote from any network. Ideal for remote surveillance, industrial control, and process monitoring applications, you can quickly configure the AXIS 2100 for a direct installation to your serial modem. This is suitable for a wide range of remote applications that can be viewed from anywhere, from the comfort of the computer at home, or the office.

Having established a Dial-up connection for your AXIS 2100, the camera plugs directly into a serial modem to provide immediate access to live video images in your own custom-designed Web page. You access the images and the camera Web pages in exactly the same way as you would dial-up to your ISP.

Installation and Configuration Overview

Configure the AXIS 2100 for viewing images over a Dial-up modem connection as follows:

1.Connect the AXIS 2100 to the network if available. Otherwise, use the supplied Null Modem Cable.

2.Install the camera as a modem. For this and general information on the Dial-up connection, refer to Using Your Camera with a Modem, on page 14.

3.Create a dedicated Dial-up Connection.

4.Refine the Dial-up parameters.

5.Initiate the Dial-up connection.

6.Referring to Configuring Your Camera, on page 20, open the Home Page in your browser and start the Installation Wizard. Complete the Wizard to establish the standard Security, Date and Time, Image General Layout and Modem settings - selecting modem as your chosen method of connection.

7.Disconnect the camera from the network or Null Modem Cable and connect it directly to your modem.

8.Your application is now complete. You should now verify the installation by remotely accessing the AXIS 2100 Web pages from your browser via the connected modem.
