Cold Start-up Delay Switch

Enable this switch for AXIS Q1602/Q1604.

The housing used in this Axis product features Arctic Temperature Control, which is enabled by setting the Cold Start-up Delay switch to I (ON). When enabled, this function controls when the camera restarts after a power cut, when temperatures are below 0 °C (32 °F); the camera is first heated to approximately 0 °C (32 °F) before it initializes. This prevents damage to camera parts that are sensitive to sub-zero temperatures.

4 Assign an IP address

Most networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP addresses to connected devices. If your network does not have a DHCP server the network camera will use 192.168.0.90 as the default IP address.

AXIS IP Utility and AXIS Camera Management are recommended methods for setting an IP address in Windows. These free applications are available on the AXIS Network Video Product CD supplied with this product, or they can be downloaded from www.axis.com/techsup. Depending on the number of cameras you wish to install, use the method that suits you best.
