“When decommissioning an Axis device, always perform a factory restore to securely remove all configuration, user data, and stored information from the device.”

— Axis Decommissioning Guide

“A factory restore erases all user data and settings, returning the device to its original state, which is necessary before removing the device from service.”

Axis Official Documentation Extract:

“A video decoder is a device that receives video streams from IP cameras over the network, decodes the streams, and outputs the video to a monitor, typically using HDMI or other standard video outputs. This allows users to view live network video on standard monitors or televisions without the need for a computer.”

Supporting Extract from Axis Study Guide:

"Video decoders play a crucial role in network video systems where there is a need to display live video feeds on standard monitors. Unlike video encoders, which convert analog video to digital IP video streams, decoders convert IP video streams back into video signals that can be displayed on HDMI or composite video monitors."

"Some PTZ cameras feature advanced autofocus technologies such as laser focus or focus recall to quickly and accurately focus at different zoom levels or positions."

"PTZ models with laser focus technology maintain image sharpness even at long distances."

A multidirectional camera is equipped with multiple sensors that can be independently adjusted to cover different areas. This flexibility allows for optimal usage of the camera by positioning each sensor to capture specific scenes or angles. These sensors are typically fixed in place once set up, but their initial placement can be adjusted to ensure comprehensive coverage. Axis documents specify that multidirectional cameras are designed for customizable installation to meet varying surveillance needs.

"Color temperature describes the color characteristics of a light source and is measured in Kelvin. Lower values (e.g., 2700K) are perceived as warm (yellow/red), while higher values (e.g., 6500K) are cool (blue/white)."

— Axis Communications Academy, Network Video Fundamentals, 2022

"Lower color temperatures are described as warm, higher values as cool."

The field of view of a camera is determined by the focal length of the lens and the size of the sensor. The focal length affects how wide or narrow the view appears, while the sensor size impacts the overall field of view captured by the camera. Axis technical specifications detail how different combinations of focal length and sensor size influence the camera's field of view, allowing for precise control over what is captured in the frame.

The product selector tool for Axis products enables system designers to design a complete surveillance system and generate a bill of materials. This tool helps in selecting the appropriate cameras, accessories, and software based on specific project requirements, ensuring all necessary components are included for a functional setup. Axis Communications offers this tool on their website, supported by detailed documentation and tutorials to assist users in the system design process.
