Problems uploading own files There is only limited space available for the upload of your own files. Try deleting one or more
existing files, to free up space.
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, e.g. pre-buffers, hi-res images, high frame rate etc will reduce the performance of
the AXIS 231D.
Slow performance Slow performance may be caused by e.g. heavy network traffic, many users with access to unit,
low performing client, use of features such as Event handling., Image rotation.
Bad snapshot images
Display incorrectly configured on
your workstation
In Display Properties, configure your display to show at least 65000 colors, i.e. at least 16-bit.
Using only 16 or 256 colors on your display will produce dithering artifacts in the image.
