Install the hardware

Refer to the illustration on page 4 for a detailed overview of the AXIS 225FD.

1.Make a note of the serial number (S/N) which is located on the product label on the base of the unit casing. The serial number is used in the installation.

2.Loosen the tamper-proof screws using the supplied allen key and lift the dome casing from the unit casing. Be careful not to damage the dome or scratch the glass.

3.Disassemble the cable gland (see illustration).

4.Thread the network/power and I/O cables through the outer ring and rubber plug (push the network cable through the slit).

5.Use the supplied blind plugs to fill unused holes in the rubber plug.

6.Attach the cable gland to the conduit hole on the side or bottom of the AXIS 225FD, depending on the installation.

The conduit hole must face downwards if the camera is installed vertically.

9.Install the unit casing on the ceiling/wall using the supplied screws and plugs. Seal the holes with silicon sealant to prevent moisture from leaking in to the casing.

Note: Use of the cable gland is optional. For full vandal resistant protection of the cables, use vandal resistant conduits instead.

Connect the cables

1.Connect the camera to the network using a shielded network cable.

2.Optionally connect external input/output devices, e.g. alarm devices. See page 14 for information on the terminal connector pins.

3.Connect power to the power connector block, using one of the methods listed below:

PoE (Power over Ethernet) via the network cable. This will automatically be detected if available via the network. Note that PoE provides power for the camera only (not the heater).

Connect the supplied indoor power adapter to the power connector block in the camera casing. Note that this indoor power adapter provides power for the camera only (not the heater).

Connect an outdoor power supply to the power connector block in the camera casing. For information on available outdoor power supplies, please visit the Support pages at http:// www.axis.com/techsup/

4.Check that the indicator LEDs indicate the correct conditions. See the table on page 14 for further details. Note that some LEDs can be disabled and may be unlit.

225FD specifications

Axis Communications, a pioneer in network video solutions, continues to innovate with the introduction of the Axis 225FD, a cutting-edge fixed dome network camera designed to enhance surveillance capabilities in various environments. This device strives to meet the demanding requirements of modern security by combining advanced imaging technology with user-friendly features.

One of the standout characteristics of the Axis 225FD is its exceptional image quality. It boasts a high-resolution sensor capable of capturing detailed images even in low light conditions. This is further enhanced by Axis' Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology, which ensures that both bright and dark areas within a scene are clearly visible. This feature is particularly useful in dynamic lighting situations, such as entryways where bright sunlight may contrast with shaded areas.

The Axis 225FD is equipped with a built-in microphone to capture audio along with video, adding another layer of context to footage. This feature is invaluable for various applications, allowing security personnel to not only see but also hear events as they unfold, leading to more comprehensive situational awareness.

For adaptability, the camera supports PoE (Power over Ethernet), simplifying installation by allowing both power and data transfer through a single cable. This efficiency means less clutter and easier setup, making the Axis 225FD suitable for diverse installation environments, including retail spaces, offices, and public areas.

In terms of security features, the Axis 225FD supports multiple streams, enabling different resolutions for different scenarios. This flexibility ensures that users can tailor the video quality based on their bandwidth constraints while maintaining critical surveillance capabilities. Moreover, the camera is equipped with tampering alarms that send notifications if it is moved or obstructed, further bolstering security measures.

Durability is another critical consideration with the Axis 225FD. Designed to withstand the rigors of various environments, the camera is housed in a robust casing that protects it from dust and moisture, meeting IP66 and IK08 standards. This resilience ensures that the camera remains operational in challenging conditions, providing reliable surveillance year-round.

In summary, the Axis Communications 225FD is a state-of-the-art surveillance solution that excels in key areas such as image quality, audio capture, installation flexibility, and security features. With its durable design and advanced technologies, it stands out as a top choice for organizations looking to enhance their monitoring capabilities and ensure the safety of people and assets.
