Appendix C: Protocol Support Upgrades

Verify the Upgrade

You can verify that the upgrade is successfully completed by printing the test page after the NPS 530/532 has been restarted. To print the test page, press the TEST button until the STATUS indicator starts to flash, then release the button. See Appendix B for a test page sample from an NPS 530/532 in its default configuration.

If you have upgraded to TCP/IP, the TCP/IP header has changed from:

**TCP/IP: locked

to:

**TCP/IP: enabled

If you have upgraded to Apple EtherTalk, the Apple EtherTalk header has changed from:

**Apple EtherTalk: locked

to:

** Apple EtherTalk: enabled

If the upgrade procedure failed, repeat the process and make sure that you enter the proper key into the key parameters. Should the upgrade still fail, contact your distributor.

Note: As an alternative, you can also view the parameter list to verify the upgrade. After a successful upgrade, the parameters TCP_KEY and/or ATLK_KEY contain the software key, and parameters TCP_ENB and/or ATLK_ENB are set to YES. If the upgrade procedure failed, the software key parameters (TCP_KEY and ATLK_KEY) remain empty.

NPS 532, NPS 530 specifications

Axis Communications, known for its innovative network video solutions, has recently introduced its new line of network power supplies, the NPS 530 and NPS 532. These robust devices are designed to meet the increasing power demands of network cameras, ensuring reliable and efficient operation in various surveillance applications.

The Axis NPS 530 and NPS 532 power supplies are engineered for optimal performance in network video installations. One of their main features is their high power output. The NPS 530 provides up to 60 W, while the NPS 532 delivers up to 120 W of power, making them suitable for powering multiple network devices simultaneously. This high power capability allows for the use of more advanced cameras equipped with enhanced features, such as pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) functionality, which can require significantly more power.

Both models are equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, which simplifies installation and reduces the need for additional wiring. PoE enables a single cable to provide both data connection and electrical power to devices, making the installation process more efficient and cost-effective. The NPS 530 and NPS 532 support the IEEE 802.3at and 802.3af PoE standards, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network devices.

Another key characteristic of these power supplies is their resilience and reliability. The rugged design of the NPS series ensures durability in various environmental conditions, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. They are constructed with high-quality components that enhance their longevity, reducing the total cost of ownership over time.

The NPS 530 and NPS 532 also feature advanced thermal management systems. These systems help maintain optimal operating temperatures, preventing overheating during prolonged usage. Additionally, both models include LED indicators that provide real-time status updates, allowing users to monitor the operational state at a glance.

In conclusion, the Axis NPS 530 and NPS 532 power supplies stand out in the market for their high performance, advanced PoE technology, and robust design. They offer an ideal solution for modern surveillance needs, ensuring security professionals can deploy powerful network cameras with confidence. With these innovations, Axis Communications continues to set the standard in reliable video surveillance technology.
