Axis 26031r3 User Manual

The AXIS 216FD includes support for Bonjour. When enabled, the camera is automatically 

detected by operating systems and clients that support this. 

These settings are the port range, IP address, port number (video and audio), and 

Time-To-Live value to use for the video stream(s) in multicast MPEG-4 format. Only 

certain IP addresses and port numbers should be used for multicast streams. For more 

information, please see the online help.

I/O Ports - the pinout, interface support and the control and monitoring functions 

provided by this connector are described in The I/O Terminal Connector, on page 45.

The Status indicator LED on the front of the camera can be set to flash at a configurable 

interval (or to not light up at all) whenever the unit is accessed. For a listing of all LED 

behavior, see page 8, or the online help. Note that the LED does not flash when the stream 

is retrieved using MPEG-4 multicast.

• Restart - The camera is restarted without changing any of the settings.
• Restore - The unit is restarted and most current settings are reset to factory default val-

ues. The settings that will not be reset are as follows:

• the boot protocol (DHCP or static)
• the static IP address
• the default router
• the  subnet  mask

• Default - The default button should be used with caution. Pressing this will return all of 

the camera's settings to the factory default values (including the IP address)

Upgrade Server - See Upgrading the Firmware, on page 47.

Backup - To take a backup of all of the parameters, and any user-defined scripts, click this 

button. If necessary, it will then be possible to return to the previous settings, if settings 

are changed and there is unexpected behavior.

Restore - click the Browse button to locate the saved backup file (see above) and then click 

the Restore button. The settings will be restored to the previous configuration.

Backup and Restore can only be used on the same unit running the same firmware. This feature is not 
intended for the configuration of multiple units or for firmware upgrades.
