Reset to factory default settings
Important
Reset to factory default should be used with caution. A reset to factory default resets all settings, including the IP address, to
the factory default values.
To reset the product to the factory default settings:
1. Press and hold the control button and the power button for 15–30 seconds until the status LED indicator flashes amber.
See Product overview on page 26.
2. Release the control button but continue to hold down the power button until the status LED indicator turns green.
3. Release the power button and assemble the product.
4. The process is now complete. The product has been reset to the factory default settings. If no DHCP server is available on
the network, the default IP address is 192.168.0.90.
5. Using the installation and management software tools to assign an IP address, set the password and access the video
stream.
You can also reset parameters to factory default through the device's webpage. Go to Maintenance > Factory default and click
Default.
Firmware options
Axis offers product firmware management according to either the active track or the long-term support (LTS) tracks. Being on the
active track means continuously getting access to all the latest product features, while the LTS tracks provide a fixed platform with
periodic releases focused mainly on bug fixes and security updates.
Using firmware from the active track is recommended if you want to access the newest features, or if you use Axis end-to-end system
offerings. The LTS tracks are recommended if you use third-party integrations, which are not continuously validated against the latest
active track. With LTS, the products can maintain cybersecurity without introducing any significant functional changes or affecting
any existing integrations. For more detailed information about Axis product firmware strategy, go to axis.com/support/firmware.
Check the current firmware version
Firmware is the software that determines the functionality of network devices. When you troubleshoot a problem, we recommend
you to start by checking the current firmware version. The latest firmware version might contain a correction that fixes your
particular problem.
To check the current firmware:
1. Go to the device interface > Status.
2. See the firmware version under Device info.
Upgrade the firmware
Important
Preconfigured and customized settings are saved when you upgrade the firmware (provided that the features are available in
the new firmware) although this is not guaranteed by Axis Communications AB.
Important
Make sure the cover is attached during upgrade to avoid installation failure.
