IMPORTANT! - The AXIS 211M is designed for indoor and outdoor use. To use
the camera outdoors, it must be installed in an approved outdoor housing.
Please see www.axis.com for more information on outdoor housings.
!
Connect the cables
1. Connect the camera to the network using a shielded network cable.
2. Optionally connect external input/output devices, e.g. alarm devices. See page 12 for
information on the terminal connector pins.
3. Connect power, using one of the methods listed below:
• The supplied power connector.
• PoE (Power over Ethernet). If available, this is automatically detected when the
network cable is connected (see above).
• Connect power via the terminal connector. See page 12 for information on the
terminal connector pins.
4. Check that the indicator LEDs indicate the correct conditions. See the table on page 13
for further details. Note that some LEDs can be disabled and may be unlit.

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 AXIS 211M will use
192.168.0.90 as the default IP address.
If you would like to assign a static IP address the recommended method in Windows is either
AXIS IP Utility or AXIS Camera Management. Depending on the number of cameras you
wish to install, use the method that best suits your purpose.
Both of 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

Notes:
• If assigning the IP address fails, check that there is no firewall blocking the operation.
• For other methods of assigning or discovering the IP address of the AXIS 211M, e.g. in other
operating systems, see page 11.

AXIS IP Utility - single camera/small installation
AXIS IP Utility automatically discovers and displays Axis devices on your network. The
application can also be used to manually assign a static IP address.
Note that the computer running AXIS IP Utility must be on the same network segment
(physical subnet) as the AXIS 211M.
Automatic discovery
1. Check that the AXIS 211M is connected to the network and that power has been applied.
2. Start AXIS IP Utility.
3. When the camera appears in the window, double-click it to open its home page.
4. See page 9 for instructions on how to assign the password.

Set the password
When accessing the AXIS 211M for the first
time, the ‘Configure Root Password’ dialog
will be displayed.
1. Enter a password and then re-enter it, to
confirm the spelling. Click OK.
2. Enter the user name root in the dialog as
requested.
Note: The default administrator user name root cannot be deleted.

Adjust the image and focus
To focus the AXIS 211M follow the instructions below.
1. From the Basic Configuration page
in the setup tools, open the Focus adjustment page.
2. Set the DC-Iris to Disabled and click
Save.
3. Unscrew the zoom puller on the lens
by turning it anti-clockwise. Adjust
the zoom setting as required. Retighten the zoom puller.
4. Unscrew the focus puller on the lens.
Adjust the focus as required. Retighten the focus puller.
5. From the Focus adjustment page, set the DC-Iris to Enabled and click Save.
Note: The DC-Iris should always be disabled while focusing the camera. This opens the
iris to its maximum, which gives the smallest depth of field and thus the best
conditions for correct focusing. When the focus is set with this method it will
then be maintained in any light conditions.
Accessing the AXIS 211M from the Internet
Once installed, your AXIS 211M is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the
camera from the Internet, network routers must be configured to allow incoming traffic,
which is usually done on a specific port. Please refer to the documentation for your router
for further instructions. For more information on this and other topics, visit the Axis Support
Web at www.axis.com/techsup

used from a stereo signal).
Audio out - Audio output (line level) that can be connected to a public address (PA) system
or an active speaker with a built-in amplifier. A pair of headphones can also be attached. A
stereo connector must be used for the audio out.
I/O terminal connector - Used in applications for e.g.
motion detection, event triggering, time lapse
recording and alarm notifications. It provides the
interface to:
• 1 transistor output - For connecting external devices such as relays and LEDs. Connected devices can be activated by AXIS
VAPIX AP, output buttons on the Live View page or by an Event Type. The output will show as active (shown under
Event Configuration > 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, glass break
detectors, etc. When a signal is received the state changes and the input becomes
active (shown under Event Configuration > Port Status).

Attribution d'une adresse IP
Aujourd'hui, la plupart des réseaux comportent un serveur DHCP qui attribue
automatiquement des adresses IP aux dispositifs connectés. Si ce n'est pas le cas de votre
réseau, l'AXIS 211M utilisera l'adresse IP par défaut 192.168.0.90.
Si vous souhaitez affecter une adresse IP statique, sous Windows nous recommandons
l'utilisation de l'application AXIS IP Utility ou de l'application AXIS Camera Management.
Selon le nombre de caméras à installer, utilisez la méthode qui vous convient le mieux.
Ces deux applications gratuites sont disponibles sur le CD de la caméra vidéo réseau Axis
fourni avec ce produit. Vous pouvez également les télécharger à partir du site
