How to access the product

How to set the root password

To access the Axis product, you must set the password for the default administrator user root. This is done in the Configure Root
Password dialog, which opens when the product is accessed for the first time.
To prevent network eavesdropping, the root password can be set via an encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS
certificate. HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt traffic between web browsers and servers. The
HTTPS certificate ensures encrypted exchange of information. See HTTPS on page 40.
The default administrator user name root is permanent and cannot be deleted. If the password for root is lost, the product must be
reset to the factory default settings. See Reset to factory default settings on page 52.
To set the password, enter it directly in the dialog.
Set Power Line Frequency
Power line frequency is set the first time the Axis product is accessed and can only be changed from Plain Config (see page 51)
or by resetting the product to factory default.
Select the power line frequency (50 Hz or 60 Hz) used at the location of the Axis product. Selecting the wrong frequency may cause
image flicker if the product is used in fluorescent light environments.
When using 50 Hz, the maximum frame rate is limited to 25 fps.
Note
Power line frequency varies depending on geographic region. The Americas usually use 60 Hz, whereas most other parts of
the world use 50 Hz. Local variations could apply. Always check with the local authorities.
