Important!

Upon delivery, the AXIS 2420 is configured for open access (anonymous users). The unit is supplied with one pre-configured Administrator username and password, set to root and pass, respectively. The Administrator password must be changed immediately to prevent unauthorized access to the Admin Tools and/or product images, as defined in the Security Settings.

To enable the updating of images in Microsoft Internet Explorer, set your browser to allow ActiveX controls and perform a once-only installation of Axis' ActiveX component onto your workstation. If your working environment restricts or prohibits the downloading of additional software components, you can alternatively, from the Image Settings, configure your AXIS 2420 to use a Java applet for updating the images. Refer to the on-line Help for more information.
