Before 2N IP Intercom can be added to AXIS Camera Station, it needs to be configured. Download
and install the 2N Network Scanner to discover your 2N IP Intercoms in the network.
Go to System > Maintenance and make sure that the required firmware is used.
5
Under Services > Phone > Calling to ACS, select Enable ACS Call and enter Username and
Password. These credentials are later used when adding the device to AXIS Camera Station.
To trigger calls to AXIS Camera Station, it also requires that the Main Unit button or Keypad has a
user assigned to it. Go to Directory > Users. Enter a name that you prefer and enter vms:* in the
Phone Number field.
6
Go to Hardware > Buttons > Quick Dial Buttons and add the user you have created above to the
Main Unit Buttons.
Now the device is ready to be added to AXIS Camera Station.
7
In the example below, we add both the 2N IP Verso and 2N IP Force.
1. Go to Configuration > Devices > Add devices.
2. Select the device(s) you want to add and click Add.
3. Chose retention time, recording storage and recording method in the next step.
You can configure a specific sound to be used on an incoming call.
1. Go to Configuration > Client > Customize > Sound on incoming call.
2. Select Sound file and click Browse and navigate to a wav or mp3 file.
8
It is possible to add a push-to-talk button to all devices that support duplex.
To enable it for door stations, you need to select both Use push-to-talk for all duplex modes and
Always allow audio for door stations.
Both Sound on incoming call and Push-to-talk are
client settings and require to be done on each AXIS
Camera Station client separately.

When a call is activated a pop-up window will appear in the top right corner.
You can hover your mouse on the thumb nail to see a larger image of the caller.
Press the Green icon to accept the call and the Red icon to decline the call.
If the call is accepted a new tab will be opened containing the view from the door station.
You can observe and communicate with the visitor. The Open door action button triggers the door
opening based on settings in the 2N IP intercom.
To finish the call, click the End Call icon, the door station tab will close and return you to your previous
view.
10
If multiple calls occur, they will be stacked so that you can decide which call to take first.
You can connect to multiple calls at the same time, the video will be shown in different tabs but the
audio will be connected to all calls.
It is recommended to answer one call at a time. The additional calls will continue to be displayed until
they are answered, or they have timed out.
11
In certain circumstances the door station pop ups are not desired. There are two methods to disable
the pop-up behavior.
• In the User permissions, remove audio from the user’s privileges.
Now the user will not receive the door station call pop ups but can access the live and
recorded video from the door station.
• In the User permissions, remove access to the device in the user’s privileges.
But note that the user will not be able to view the live or recorded video from the door station.
12
When adding 2N Intercom to AXIS Camera Station two action rules are created. One for the Action
button that can open the door but also an action to record an ongoing call.
By default, the action is to activate the IO port in the 2N IP Intercom. This can be changed to for
example grant access on an AXIS Door Controller
The recording will be displayed as an event in the recording timeline.
In the Logs tab, you will find audit and event logs about who answered a call and if the door was
opened.
The number of seconds for Door IO port to be open needs
to be configured in 2N IP Intercom. Changing the value from
within AXIS Camera Station will have no effect.
13
To receive door station calls to mobile app you need to enable AXIS Secure Remote Access.
Enter a valid MyAxis Account to your system and then select to enable AXIS Secure Remote Access.
