Axis Q1615-E Mk II User Manual

AXIS Q1615-E Mk II Network Camera
Access the Product
Set the Root Password
To access the Axis product, you must set the password for the default administrator user root. This is done in the Congure Root
Password dialog, which opens when the product is accessed for the rst time.
To prevent network eavesdropping, the root password can be set via an encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS
certicate. HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt trafc between web browsers and servers. The
HTTPS certicate ensures encrypted exchange of information. See HTTPS on page 56.
The default administrator user name root is permanent and cannot be deleted. If the password for root is lost, the product must be
reset to the factory default settings. See Reset to Factory Default Settings on page 68.
To set the password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it directly in the dialog.
To set the password via an encrypted HTTPS connection, follow these steps:
1. Click Use HTTPS.
A temporary certicate (valid for one year) is created, enabling encryption of all trafc to and from the product, and the
password can now be set securely.
2. Enter a password and then re-enter it to conrm the spelling.
3. Click OK. The password has now been congured.
Set Power Line Frequency
Power line frequency is set the rst time the Axis product is accessed and can only be changed from Plain Cong (see page 68)
or by resetting the product to factory default.
Select the power line frequency (50 Hz or 60 Hz) used at the location of the Axis product. Selecting the wrong frequency may cause
image icker if the product is used in uorescent light environments.
Note
Power line frequency varies depending on geographic region. The Americas usually use 60 Hz, whereas most other parts of
the world use 50 Hz. Local variations could apply. Always check with the local authorities.
PTZ Mode
PTZ mode is set the rst time the Axis product is accessed and can only be changed by resetting the product to factory default.
Digital PTZ is the default mode and should be used when a pan/tilt motor is not used.
If the camera is mounted to a pan/tilt motor, select Uploadable PTZ driver. For information about how to upload a PTZ driver, see
Install PTZ Driver on page 36.
Congure capture mode
Capture mode denes the maximum resolution and maximum frame rate available in the Axis product. The capture mode setting also
affects the camera’s angle of view.
Select the desired capture mode from the drop-down list and click OK.
If you select another capture mode than default, the product needs to reboot for the changes to take effect.
