Axis STS Network Camera Installation Guide Page 7 Register the camera at your operators web portal If your operator gave you specific instructions on how to register your camera, you should now follow those instructions. The steps and illustrations below are examples only and may differ from those provided by your operator. 1. Open a browser (e.g. Internet Explorer) and visit your operators web portal, as in the example below. 2. If you do not already have an account, click on the appropriate link, which might be named e.g. Create new account or something similar. 3. Enter any information requested, as well as the cameras serial number and the Owner authentication key, which can be found on the document supplied with the camera. 4. Accept the terms of the service and click on Register or similar. After registration is complete, live images from your camera should be available within a few seconds. Note that the various features, settings, links etc., available in your account all depend on the subscription you have with your operator - some features might not be available. Notes: If using Internet Explorer, you may need to approve the automatic installation of AMC (AXIS Media Control), which allows viewing of the video stream. You will need administrator rights on the computer to do this. The document Camera owner authentication key contains a unique code that is associated with your camera. This code must be specified every time the camera is registered or unregistered, and should therefore be kept in a safe place. Page 8 Axis STS Network Camera Installation Guide Configure the wireless connection For a wireless camera, the wireless settings should be configured while the camera is connected via the network cable. After the settings have been made, the cable can be disconnected. Configuring the camera via an unsecured wireless connection is not recommended, as passphrases and keys will be sent in plain text. The wireless camera automatically senses the available network connections, and only allows one of these to be active at any one time. Connecting a network cable disables the wireless connection. To configure the wireless settings - in your account at your operators web portal, click on Settings. Then select the camera name, and click on Wireless Settings. Wireless network list This list is the result of a network scan. Access points with a disabled SSID Broadcast will not appear unless the camera is associated with it. A network using unsupported security is shown in grey. The list provides the following information:
SSID - The name of a wireless network (or ad-hoc device). If the same name occurs several times this means that several access points for that network were found, in which case the camera cannot be configured to only associate with one particular access point. Mode - Indicates if the network node is an access point (Master) or an Ad-Hoc device. Security - Shows which type of security the network uses. See below for the supported security types. Channel - Shows the wireless channel currently in use. Signal strength - Shows the signal strength. Bit rate - Shows the bit rate in Mbit/s. This can only be shown for the access point currently in use. Note that the bit rate shown is the current rate, and that this value may vary over time. To update the list, click the button Rescan. Axis STS Network Camera Installation Guide Page 9 Wireless Settings These settings control how the wireless camera interacts with the wireless network. Apart from identifying the wireless network, it is also possible to enable wireless encryption. SSID - This is the name of the wireless network the camera is configured for. The field accepts up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The name must be exactly the same as that used in the wireless access point, or the connection will not be established. Leaving this field blank means the camera will attempt to access the nearest unsecured network. Note: SSID is sometimes shown as ESSID. Security - The camera supports two security methods:
WPA-PSK (recommended method) WEP WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access - Pre-Shared Key) In this method the camera uses a pre-shared key (PSK) for key management. The pre-shared key can be entered either as Manual hex - using 64 hexadecimal (0-9, A-F) characters, or as a Passphrase - using 8 to 63 ASCII characters. WEP (Wired Equivalent Protection) Authentication - Select Open or Shared Key, depending on the method used by your access point. Not all access points have this option, in which case they probably use Open, which is sometimes known as SSID Authentication. Key length - This sets the length of the key used for the wireless encryption, 64 or 128-bit. The encryption key length can sometimes be shown as 40/64 and 104/128. Active Transmit Key - This selects which of the 4 keys the camera uses when transmitting. Page 10 Axis STS Network Camera Installation Guide Key Type - The key types available depend on the access point being used. The following options may be available:
Manual - Allows you to manually enter the hex key (10 or 26 characters). ASCII - In this method the string must be exactly 5 characters for 64-bit WEP, or 13 characters for 128-bit WEP. Passphrase - The passphrase can contain up to 31 characters. In 64-bit WEP, the Passphrase generates 4 different keys. For 128-bit WEP, only 1 key is generated, which is then replicated for all 4 keys. Key generation is not standardized and may differ from brand to brand. Check that the generated keys are identical to those in your access point -
if not, they must be entered manually. Complete the wireless installation 1. Check that the wireless settings in the camera correspond to the settings in the wireless access point/router. 2. Disconnect the network cable from the camera, which will now attempt to establish the wireless connection. This may take up to 3 minutes. 3. Refresh the web page to confirm the wireless connection. If the camera cannot be accessed after 3 minutes, reconnect the network cable and check that the wireless settings match those in the wireless access point/router. LED indications & troubleshooting Status LED During startup, the Status LED on an Axis STS camera shows the following:
1. Unlit for approximately 10 seconds. 2. Orange for approximately 10 seconds. 3. Unlit. When using default settings, the Status LED flashes green whenever someone is viewing images from the camera, on when a recording is in progress, otherwise it is unlit. If the camera fails to connect to the system, the following may be indicated:
1 orange flash - the camera has not received an IP address. Check all cable connections. Check that the network LEDs on the camera and the router are lit. 2 (or 3) orange flashes - The camera has no access to the Internet and/or cannot be added to the service. If a computer connected to the same network has Internet access, this indicates that the cameras traffic is somehow being blocked. Check the settings in the broadband router, and also in other networking devices (if used) located between the camera and the Internet. The camera uses port 80 for its communication. Note that a proxy server cannot not be used between the camera and the Internet. For all other status LED flash combinations, please contact your operator for further information. Axis STS Network Camera Installation Guide Page 11 Network LED The Network LED on the camera can indicate the following:
Green flash - Connected to the network at 100 Mbps. Orange flash - Connected to the network at 10 Mbps. Red - Cable malfunction. Replace the cable. Wireless LED (wireless models only) The wireless LED can indicate the following:
Green flash - Connected to wireless network. Red - No network connection. Unlit - Connected via network cable. Resetting to the Factory Default Settings This will reset all parameters in the camera to the Factory Default settings:
1. Disconnect power from the camera. 2. Press and hold the Control button and reconnect power. 3. Keep the Control button pressed until the Status LED shows amber (this may take up to 15 seconds). 4. Release the Control button. If the camera is connected to the Internet, the LED will go out after approximately 30 seconds. The camera has now been reset. If there is no Internet connection the Status LED will show an error - see above. Technical information The service requires either a broadband router that can assign the camera an IP address via DHCP, or an ISP that provides you with multiple public IP addresses. The camera does not configure NAT-traversal in routers. The camera cannot be used behind a proxy server. The camera requires port 80 to be open for outgoing traffic. If you can already browse the Internet from a PC, then no changes are required. The camera will function even if your ISP gives you a dynamic (DHCP) IP address that changes frequently. The camera generates almost no background traffic when not in active use. A so-called keep-alive packet is sent every second minute.
