Solution overview Solution overview The AXIS Q87 Bispectral PTZ Network Camera is intended for mission-critical surveillance that demands 24-hour monitoring of restricted areas, such as airports. In difficult lighting conditions, the thermal channel can detect objects (1) that the visual channel can’t. To take advantage of this, you can set up the thermal channel to automatically detect motion, and send a signal to the visual channel to zoom in and record.

To protect your device after the first login, set up a secure and encrypted HTTPS connection and then change the password. The device password is the primary protection for your data and services.
