Frequently Asked Questions - A48 ACTi
How do I connect the A48 camera to my network?
Use a standard Ethernet cable to connect the camera to a PoE switch or injector. The camera will obtain an IP address via DHCP. Use the ACTi Configuration Manager software to locate and set a fixed IP.
How do I access the camera remotely?
Set up port forwarding on your router for the camera's HTTP/RTSP ports, or configure QNAP/ACTi cloud services for easier access. Always use strong passwords and enable HTTPS encryption.
What is the default username and password?
The default administrator username is admin and the password is blank or set to '123456' on first login. We strongly recommend changing it immediately for security.
How do I reset the camera to factory settings?
Press and hold the reset button (located near the network port) for about 10 seconds while the camera is powered on. The camera will reboot and restore default settings.
Can I use the A48 with a microSD card?
Yes. Insert a microSD card up to 128GB into the slot. Go to the camera's web interface, storage settings, and format the card. You can then record continuously or by motion detection.
How do I set up motion detection alerts?
In the camera's web interface, go to 'Events'. Draw motion regions, set sensitivity, and choose action such as sending email or uploading to FTP. You will need to configure the SMTP server details.
What video formats are supported?
The A48 supports H.265, H.264, and MJPEG. These codecs offer a good balance between quality and bandwidth. You can adjust frame rate and bitrate.
Is the camera weatherproof?
Yes, the A48 has an IP67 rating, meaning it is fully protected against dust and can withstand temporary submersion in water. It is suitable for outdoor installation.
How do I clean the camera lens?
Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or lens cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals. Dry the lens gently. For the housing, use a mild soap solution and a soft sponge.
What should I do if the camera stops responding?
First, check the PoE connection and ensure the upstream switch is powered. Reboot the camera by disconnecting power for 10 seconds. If issue persists, use the ACTi Device Manager to recover firmware or perform a factory reset.
