Uploading Images to Your Internet Service Provider

Perfect for Web attractions, remote monitoring and process control applications; the AXIS 2120 can be quickly configured to dial-out from any remote location and transmit live images to an Internet Service Provider - where your images can then be accessible to several specific users, or the whole Internet community! You can select any of the supported Public ISPs supported in the Application Wizard, or specify a Public or Private ISP of your own choosing.

Having established the Dial-up connection for your AXIS 2120 using the Installation Wizard, continue with your configuration using the Application Wizard to develop an active application, which uploads live images to a designated ISP over standard phone lines. You can arrange for image files to be transmitted as a sequential stream, or only at specified time periods; and you can set the times and frequency at which images are taken and uploaded to your ISP.

Installation and Configuration Overview

Configure the AXIS 2120 to upload images to an Internet Service Provider, as follows:

1.Connect the AXIS 2120 to the network if available. Otherwise, use the supplied Null Modem Cable. Connect a computer and initiate a dial-up connection to the camera. For this and general information on the dial-up connection, refer to Installing Your Camera to a Modem on page 15.

2.Create a dedicated dial-up connection.

3.Refine the dial-up parameters.

4.Initiate the dial-up connection.

5.Referring to Configuring Your Camera on page 21, open the product 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.

6.Continue the configuration using the Application Wizard to define your preferred ISP and mode of operation - choosing Sequential mode to upload an image sequence that is unlimited or restricted between specified time periods but independent of any alarm event.

7.Disconnect the AXIS 2120 from the network or Null Modem Cable and connect it directly to the modem.

8.The application setup is complete. You should now verify the installation by remotely accessing the images that are now stored by your ISP.
