AXIS 2100 User’s Guide Choosing Your Application 33
Remote Imaging in a Custom-designed Web Page
The AXIS 2100 can be configured as a standalone applicatio n 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.
