Axis 27756r1 User Manual

The AXIS Camera Station Client interface is similar to that of the AXIS Camera Service with a few differences 

under file menu that are described here.

To establish a connection between the AXIS Camera Station (server application) and AXIS Camera 

Station Client, the server’s IP address and password must be entered under File > Connection.  

Every time you start AXIS Camera Station Client, new updates are sent to it from the server, 

containing e.g. camera configuration settings. You can download configuration settings from AXIS Camera Station to 
AXIS Camera Station Client by selecting this menu item.

This menu item is enabled when AXIS MPEG-4 decoder hasn’t been installed. Click on this 

option to register and install the MPEG-4 decoder license included in AXIS Camera Station Client software.

Check to enable the display of a pop-up window showing the video image when there 

is an alarm. Use Camera pop-up filter... to set which cameras will use this feature.

Select this menu item to play the sound file specified in Test Connection above, whenever there 

is an alarm.

To Get and Upload configuration settings from the server, check Allow clients to update configuration under 

Options >General Settings > General in AXIS Camera Station. Also, if password protection is enabled, the user 

must be granted Administration rights in AXIS Camera Station, see How to set up Users, on page 18. 

Client users can be granted access to the AXIS Camera Station Client configuration pages, which contain the 

same parameters and settings as the AXIS Camera Station. For Clients who have not been granted access to the 

configuration pages, the Options menu is not available.

Permission to access the configuration pages in AXIS Camera Station Client are defined from 

AXIS Camera Station under Options > General Settings > General.
