Advanced Configuration
3.2.3 Product Info Menu
The admin functions accessed through the Product Info menu on the left
side of the page are shown.
The Identification page shows hardware information for the camera and
allows changing the Friendly Name of the camera for easier identification
when multiple cameras are used on the network. You can include the Friendly
Name on the video feeds and adjust its appearance on the OSD page (refer to
On Screen Display, pg. 61).
Click on the Update button to save the settings. The changes will not take
effect until the server is stopped and started.
3.3 Restoring the Factory Settings
The camera comes configured from the factory with a default IP address (192.168.250.116), the
login passwords (user, expert, admin), and all of the other configuration parameters (stored in a file
called server.ini). In some cases, it may be necessary to restore the network settings of the camera
to the original factory settings. If necessary, the camera IP address can be restored to this factory
default address by temporarily connecting a loopback device to the Ethernet port during initial
power-up (this can be accomplished by using conventional power rather than PoE+). Approximately
30 seconds after power is turned on, the loopback device should be removed to allow the camera to
finish booting up.
Note
At each power-up, the system transmits a packet and then checks to determine if that same packet
has been received. Detection of the received packet indicates the camera has a custom loopback
connector installed on its Ethernet interface. The detection of the loopback packet cues the camera
to restore Factory Defaults (including the IP settings, user passwords, and configuration file), and to
revert to the same configuration and behavior as when the camera left the factory.
The camera will not finish booting up while the loopback device is connected to the camera. The
camera will display analog video, but the Nexus Server will not start until the loopback device is
removed from the camera.
