4. All pertinent information appears in the window, such as the camera/video server’s name, IP address,
Device model and Video Port. The Camera enabled box must be checked to make recordings and viewing
images possible. Camera name is how the camera will appear in AXIS Camera Station. If you like, you
may change the name to something more descriptive. The change will only affect AXIS Camera Station
and not the camera.
Note:
The WAN IP address must be specified if a Client or Web Interface Client is run from another network than AXIS Camera Station and
depends on your network/Firewall/NAT. If no WAN address is available, enter the LAN address. See Network Configuration, on page 28
for more information.
5. Credentials - If the camera is setup to use a common user name and password check the Use Master
Password box under Credentials. Master Credentials is set up under Options > General Settings >
General. If the camera has a unique password, check Use Specific Password and enter User Name and
Password information.
6. Live View Options - Specify the file format to show images in. The options that appear in the drop-down
list are dependant on what is available for the camera. File formats MJPG, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 are
supported.
If applicable for the model of camera chosen, you can enable Pan/Tilt/Zoom and Audio. Note, that audio must
be enabled in the camera as well. Image Enhancer is enabled if you have installed your AXIS Image Enhancer
license in AXIS Camera Station. By enabling these features the controls are displayed when viewing the
camera’s image in the Live View window (see Select Camera
on page 6).
