Press and hold the Control button while reconnecting the power. Keep the Control button pressed until the Status Indicator color changes to amber (this may take up to 15 seconds). When the Status Indicator changes to Green (which may take up to 1 minute), the process is complete and the camera has been reset. The unit will now have the default IP address 192. 168. 0. 90 Advanced Scripting is an advanced function that provides the possibility to customize and use scripts. Improper use may cause unexpected behavior or even cause loss of contact with the unit. If a script does cause problems, reset the unit to its factory default settings.

AXIS 207/207W - The I/O Terminal Connector 37 The I/O Terminal Connector Pinout and Interface The 4-pin I/O terminal connector provides the interface to: · 1 transistor output · 1 digital input · auxiliary power and GND The terminal connector is used in applications for e. g. motion detection, event triggering, time lapse recording, alarm notification via email, etc. If the pushbutton is pressed, the state changes and the input becomes active (shown under Event Configuration > Port Status). an alarm device that can be activated by Output buttons on the Live View page, or by an Event Type. The output will show as active (Event Configuration > Port Status) if the alarm device is activated. Function Transistor Output Pin 4 Description With a maximum load of 100mA and a maximum voltage of 24V DC, this output has an open-collector NPN transistor with the emitter connected to the GND pin. If used with an external relay, a diode must be connected in parallel with the load, for protection against voltage transients. Connect to GND to activate, or leave floating (or unconnected) to deactivate. Pinouts The I/O terminal pins on the AXIS 207 and AXIS 207W are numbered as shown below. AXIS 207 4 1 Digital Input GND Auxiliary DC Power Input 3 1 (AXIS 207W) 2 (AXIS 207) 1 (AXIS 207) 2 (AXIS 207W) AXIS 207W 1 4 5VDC/min 2. 5W (AXIS 207) 5VDC/min 3. 5W (AXIS 207W) Electrically connected in parallel with the connector for the PS-L/PS-H power adapter, this pin provides an auxiliary connector for mains power to the unit. This pin can also be used to power auxiliary equipment, max 50mA. 38 AXIS 207/207W - The I/O Terminal Connector Connect input/output devices to the camera as follows: 1. [. . . ] VPN (Virtual Private Network) - This creates a secure "tunnel" between the points within the VPN. Only devices with the correct "key" will be able to work within the VPN. The VPN network can be within a company LAN (Local Area Network), but different sites can also be connected over the Internet in a secure way. One common use for VPN is for connecting a remote computer to the corporate network, via e. g. [. . . ]
