Step 1 –Adding/updating & setting up devices
Start by adding the unit(s) to Axis Camera Station and ensuring that they are running the latest
firmware. For the devices used we require the use of HTTPS for end-to-end security, these
devices should also use ACS as an NTP.
To add the devices
Follow these steps if you need to add the devices:
1. In Axis Camera Station open the configuration tab via the “+” symbol found at the top of
the screen.
2. From the left menu select “Devices” and under this drop-down select “Add Devices”
3. On this page if the units are in your network, you should see them, if they are missing
then you can try do a manual search via the button “Manual Search”. If they still cannot
be found, please check the units are powered and are on the same network.
4. If the units are greyed out, this means they require the password for the unit, this is
entered by clicking on the “Enter password” under status for the unit.
5. Once you see the units you wish to add, you can hold down the “ctrl” key and select the
units, then click add found on the bottom left.
