AXIS Q1602 Network Camera

Troubleshooting

Missing images in uploads

This can occur when trying to use a larger image buffer than is actually available. Try lowering

 

the frame rate or the upload period.

Slow image update

Configuring pre-buffers, motion detection, high-resolution images or high frame rates will affect

 

the performance of the Axis product.

Poor performance

Poor performance may be caused by heavy network traffic, multiple users accessing the product,

 

low performance clients, use of features such as motion detection, event handling or uploaded

 

applications.

Poor quality snapshot images

 

 

 

Screen incorrectly

Configure your screen to show at least 65000 colors, that is, at least 16 bits. Using only 16 or 256

configured on your computer

Changes in luminance

Motion detection is based on changes in luminance in the image. This means that if there are

 

sudden changes in the lighting, motion detection may trigger mistakenly. Lower the sensitivity

 

setting to avoid problems with luminance.

Check the sound card in the computer. Ensure that mute is not selected and that the volume

 

settings are correct.
