Connector for fan Camera unit Network cable Attach screw to camera ConduitPage 10 AXIS P3343-VE/P3344-VE/P3346-VE Installation Guide Assign an IP address The AXIS P3343-VE/P3344-VE/P3346-VE Network Camera is designed for use on an Ethernet network and requires an IP address for access. 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 AXIS AXIS P3343-VE/P3344-VE/P3346-VE Network Camera will use 192.168.0.90 as the default IP address. AXIS IP Utility and AXIS Camera Management are the 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. Notes:

• If you are unable to set the IP address, check for any firewall blocking the operation.

• See page 17 for other available methods for setting or discovering the IP address of the AXIS P3343-VE/P3344-VE/P3346-VE Network Camera, in relation to other operating systems.

ENGLISH Set the password To gain access to the product, the password for the default administrator user root must be set. This is done in the Configure Root Password dialog, which is displayed when the AXIS P3343-VE/P3344-VE/P3346-VE is accessed for the first time. To prevent network eavesdropping when setting the root password, this can be done via an encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS certificate. To set the password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it in the Configure Root Password window. To set the password via an encrypted HTTPS connection, follow these steps:

1. Click the Create self-signed certificate button.

2. Provide the requested information and click OK. The certificate is created and the password can

now be set securely. All traffic to and from the AXIS P3343-VE/P3344-VE/P3346-VE Network Camera is encrypted from this point on.

3. Enter a password and then re-enter it to confirm the spelling. Click OK. The password has now

4. To log in, enter the user name “root” in the dialog as requested.

Note: The default administrator user name root cannot be deleted.

5. Enter the password as set above, and click OK. If the password is lost, the AXIS

P3343-VE/P3344-VE/P3346-VE must be reset to the factory default settings. See page 21. The Live View page of the AXIS P3343-VE/P3344-VE/P3346-VE appears. The Setup link to the right gives you menu options that allow you to customize the camera. To configure the password directly via an unencrypted connection, enter the password here

6. The capture mode must be set the first time the

network camera is accessed. Select the desired capture mode from the drop-down list and click OK. Note: The capture mode can be changed later from the prod- uct’s web pages, but this will reset most other settings. For more information, see the online help or User’s Manual.

7. If required, click Yes to install AMC (AXIS Media Control), which allows viewing of the video

stream in Internet Explorer. You will need administrator rights on the computer to do this. Note: To install AMC in Windows 7/Windows Vista, you must run Internet Explorer as administrator. Right-click the Internet Explorer icon and select Run as administrator. Access the video stream The Live View page of the network camera is displayed. The Setup link leads to menus which allow you to customize the camera. Note: To install AMC in Windows 7/Windows Vista, you must run Internet Explorer as an administrator.

It provides the interface to:

• 1 transistor output - For connecting external devices such as relays and LEDs. Connected devices can be activated by the VAPIX Application Programming Interface (API), by the output buttons on the Live View page or by an Event Type. The output will show as active (shown under Event Configu- ration > Port Status) if the alarm device is activated.

• 1 digital input - An alarm input for connecting devices that can toggle between an open and closed circuit, for example: PIRs, door/window contacts, and glass break detectors. When a signal is received the state changes and the input becomes active (shown under Event Configuration > Port Status).
