AXIS Camera Station Service Administration
AXIS Camera Station Service Administration is a console application that has the same functions as AXIS Camera Station Service
Control. It can be used from the command prompt or from a batch script to start and stop the service or backup the database, etc.,
which allows for automating and scheduling of administrative tasks.
The default location of the console application is
"C:/Program Files/Axis Communications/AXIS Camera Station 3/AcsAdminConsole.exe"
Note
AcsAdminConsole.exe must be run as administrator.
