Notes for Macintosh Users

The AXIS 2120 supports TCP/IP over Ethernet, or PPP Modem dial-up. You must use TCP/IP on your Macintosh network, as there is no support for AppleTalk.

When using the AXIS 2120 on a Macintosh, please observe the following points:

The camera has a default IP address of 192.36.253.80.

Assign a temporary IP address in the same subnet (e.g. 192.36.253.81) to a Mac workstation and then connect to the camera.

The desired IP address for the camera should be set using the Installation Wizard.

The correct IP address for the Macintosh workstation should also be reset.

Changing the IP address for a Macintosh is simple and there is no need to reboot.

Currently there are limitations in the ActiveX Support in Internet Explorer running on the Macintosh. This results in problems when viewing live moving images. The recommended solution for viewing Axis cameras on the Macintosh is to use Netscape.
