Zooming
When zooming, you can continue moving the camera head within the
defined viewing limits. This is because the view angle limits define the
visual limits of an area and not the physical limits for the camera head.
Configuring using FTP
The configuration parameters of your AXIS 240 can be modified
using the File Transfer Protocol (FTP). FTP is supported by most
operating environments.
Modifying the
Configuration File
Follow these instructions to modify the configuration file using FTP:
1. In a DOS or UNIX window, type
ftp camserv, where camserv
is the name or IP address of your AXIS 240.
2. Login using the user
root and the root password. Default password
is
pass
. You are highly recommended to change the root password,
since all Axis products are shipped with this password as default.
3. Windows 95 only: Change directory not to overwrite any of your
system files. See the caution note below.
4. Use the
get config to access the configuration file.
5. Edit the
config file using any text editor. In Windows 95/98 and
Windows NT environments, you can for example use Notepad.
The camera is panned
to the its right view
angle limit.
The camera is now
zoomed.
The camera can now be
moved to the right until
stopped by the view
angle limit.
