Assign an IP address
Most networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP addresses to connected
devices. If your network does not have a DHCP server the AXIS Q1755-E will use 192.168.0.90 as
the default IP address.
If you would like to assign a static IP address, the recommended method in Windows is either AXIS
IP Utility or AXIS Camera Management. Depending on the number of cameras you wish to install,
use the method that best suits your purpose.
Both of these free applications are available on the Axis Network Video Product CD supplied with
this product, or they can be downloaded from www.axis.com/techsup
Notes:
• If assigning the IP address fails, check that there is no firewall blocking the operation.
• For other methods of assigning or discovering the IP address of the AXIS Q1755-E e.g. in other
operating systems, see page 17.

Set the password
To gain access to the product, the password for the default administrator user root must be set. This
is done in the ‘Configure Root Password’ dialog, which is displayed when the network camera is
accessed for the first time.
To prevent network eavesdropping when setting the root password, this can be done via an
encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS certificate.
Note: HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt the traffic between web
browsers and servers. The HTTPS certificate controls the encrypted exchange of information.
To set the password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it directly in the first dialog shown
below.
To set the password via an encrypted HTTPS connection, follow these steps:
1. Click the Create self-signed certificate button.
2. Provide the requested information and click OK. The certificate is created and the password can
now be set securely. All traffic to and from the network camera is encrypted from this point on.
3. Enter a password and then re-enter it to confirm the spelling. Click OK. The password has now
been configured.
4. To log in, enter the user name “root” in the dialog as requested
Note: The default administrator user name root cannot be deleted.
5. Enter the password as set above, and click OK.
Note: If the password is lost, the camera must be reset to the factory default settings. See page 22.

I/O terminal connector - Used in applications for e.g. motion detection, event
triggering, time lapse recording and alarm notifications. In addition to an auxiliary
power and a GND pin, the AXIS Q1755-E has 2 pins that can be configured as
either input or output. These pins provide the interface to:
• Transistor output - For connecting external devices such as relays and
LEDs. Connected devices can be activated by AXIS VAPIX API, output but-
tons on the Live View page or by an Event Type. The output will show as active (shown
under Event Configuration > Port Status) if the alarm device is activated.
• Digital input - An alarm input for connecting devices that can toggle between an open and
closed circuit, for example: PIRs, door/window contacts, glass break detectors, etc. When a
signal is received the state changes and the input becomes active (shown under Event
Configuration > Port Status.)
Note:
The I/O connector on AXIS Q1755-E is connected to the housing electronics at delivery and
will trigger an input port event to indicate a fan or heater error when activated. Please refer
to the User’s Manual User’s Manual, available on the CD provided with this product, or from
