Uploading Images to Your Internet Service Provider

Perfect for Web attractions, remote light surveillance and process control applications; the AXIS 2100 can be quickly configured to dial-out from any remote location and transmit live images to several users, or the whole Internet community - via your preferred Internet Service Provider. Select any of the Public ISPs supported in the Application Wizard, or alternatively, specify another ISP of your choosing.

Having established the Dial-up connection for your AXIS 2100, continue your configuration using the Installation Wizard to develop an active application that uploads live images to a designated ISP over normal phone lines. Your image files are transmitted as a sequential stream, or restricted to specified time periods. You set the times and the frequency at which images are taken and uploaded to the ISP.

9.Your application is now complete. You should now verify the installation by remotely accessing the images now stored with your ISP.
