What to do if registration fails
If step 4 in the registration process fails, the Status indicator on the front of the camera
will blink red for 10 seconds, after which it returns to steady green. In this case, the camera
was unable to contact the Axis Internet Dynamic DNS Service. It may still be possible to
access the camera locally via the default IP address. Otherwise, the IP address must be set
manually, using one of the methods described below. See also the troubleshooting section.

Manual Installation using AXIS IP Utility

Important!
Although it may be possible to use the default IP address 192.168.0.90, please consult your network
administrator to obtain a suitable IP address for your network and your particular subnet.
AXIS IP Utility is a software application that quickly and simply installs an Axis device
onto your local network. Download the latest version, free of charge, from www.axis.com
1. Connect the AXIS 205 to your local network using a standard network cable.
2. Connect the power adapter to the camera and plug into the main power supply.
3. Start AXIS IP Utility. The following window appears:
4. In the first field, enter the serial number found on the
AXIS 205's label (see the illustration below.) This
number always starts with 00408C and is followed
by 6 characters unique to your unit. Enter the
remainder of the number, (e.g. 181000) so that the
whole number reads something like 00408C181000.
5. Enter the IP address for your AXIS 205 and click Set
IP. The utility now prompts you to restart your camera and then displays a message
confirming that the IP address has been set. To view the camera's home page, click the
button provided. Configure the remaining network parameters from the setup tools.

Manual Installation with ARP and Ping

As an alternative to the AXIS IP Utility, the AXIS 205 can be installed using the ARP and
Ping commands, as described below.
1. Locate the label (see the illustration)
containing the product's serial number. You
must know this to set the IP address.
2. Connect a network cable to your AXIS 205
and attach it to the network.
3. From a Windows computer on your network, open a Command Prompt and enter the
commands shown below.
