Accessing The Camera; Access From A Browser - Axis 210 User Manual

Accessing the Camera

After installation, the cameras can be used with most standard operating systems and
browsers. The recommended browser is Internet Explorer with Windows, and Mozilla with
other operating systems. See also the Technical Specifications, on page 49.
Notes:
•To perform the installation, please see the Installation Guide supplied with the product. This
guide is also available from www.axis.com
•To view streaming video in Microsoft Internet Explorer, you must set your browser to allow
ActiveX controls and allow the AXIS Media Control (AMC) to be installed on your workstation.
AMC is required for audio and MPEG-4. If your workstation restricts the use of additional soft-
ware components, the cameras can be configured to use a Java applet for updating JPEG
images. Please see the online help for more information.
