Almost all Axis cameras can be added using our custom build push module. Depending on the camera's main chip a different version of the push module should be used. To download the model-specific push module please visit this page↗️.
The correct procedure to install the push module depends on the camera's interface version. This article described the correct procedure for the latest generation of Axis camera's web interface, for older Axis cameras please visit this page↗️.
The general protocol to add the Axis camera using P&P methods consists of the following steps:
Step 1
Configure the camera's network and time settings according to its location requirements, ensure that camera can access the internet, and resolve DNS addresses.
Go to the System menu and click on TCP/IP tab. Configure the IPv4 section. DHCP (automatic) IP configuration is recommended if Manual is used make sure that the correct Default router and Primary DNS server values are used. On the Date and Time tab configure the clock to the appropriate time zone and time.
Step 2
Create an ONVIF user with an Administrator role.
From the System menu go to the ONVIF tab and click on the plus button in the ONVIF users column, this user must have Administrator permissions.
Step 3
To determine the correct version of the push module for your camera go to the System menu, and use the right arrow to reveal the Plain config tab. From the plain config find the Properties section and scroll down to find System Architecture. Download the file that matches the name of your camera architecture from this page↗️.
Step 4
Go to the Apps menu and click on the Add button to upload the push module into the camera. Once the upload is complete 3dEYE PushModule 1.0 app will appear in the list, click on it to open its properties window. From this window click the Start slider and wait for the app to start, usually no more than 5 seconds. Once the app is started click on App log and copy the Registration code from the page that will appear.
Restart the camera and wait for it to boot up completely.
Step 5
Add camera in the Admin Portal↗️ using the Registration code from step 4.
From the Customers, table click on the customer to whom you want to add the camera then click on the Cameras menu on the customer menu level and use the Add button to integrate the camera.
Input the camera's Registration code (obtained in step 4) and provide the camera's ONVIF user credentials created during step 2. Next, choose the billing plan and click the Create button.
