AXIS 213 - Accessing the camera
Accessing the camera
The AXIS 213 can be used with most standard operating systems and supports
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.x or later, Netscape 7.x or later and Mozilla 1.4 or later.
Note: To view streaming video in Microsoft Internet Explorer, you must set your browser to allow the AXIS
Media Control (AMC) to be installed on your computer. The first time an MPEG-4 video stream is
accessed, AMC also installs an MPEG-4 decoder for viewing the video stream. As a license is required
for each instance of the decoder, the product administrator may have disabled the installation. If
your workstation restricts the use of additional software components, the camera can be configured
to use a Java applet for updating JPEG images. See the online help for more information.
Accessing from a browser
1. Start a browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Netscape Navigator).
2. Enter the IP address or host
name of the AXIS 213 in
the Location/ Address field
of your browser.
3. Enter the user name
and password set by
the administrator.
4. A video image is
displayed in your
browser.
