36AXIS Q7414 - System Options• Synchronize with computer time - sets the time from the clock on your computer.• Synchronize with NTP Server - the video encoder will obtain the time from an NTP server on a regular basis.• Set manually - this option allows you to manually set the time and date.Note:If using a host name for the NTP server, a DNS server must be configured under TCP/IP settings.See Network > Basic TCP/IP Settings below.Date & Time Format Used in Images - specify the formats for the date and time (12h or 24h) displayed in the video streams.Use the predefined formats or use your own custom date and time formats. See Advanced File Naming & Date/Time Formatsin the online help for information on how to create your own date and time formats.NetworkBasic TCP/IP SettingsAXIS Q7414 supports both IP version 4 and IP version 6. Both versions may be enabled simultaneously, and at least oneversion must always be enabled. When using IPv4, the IP address for the video encoder can be set automatically via DHCP, ora static IP address can be set manually. If IPv6 is enabled, the video encoders receive an IP address according to theconfiguration in the network router. There is also the option of using the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service. For moreinformation on setting the IP address, please see the online help .Network Settings - Click the View button for an overview of the IP configuration of the video encoder.IPv4 Address Configuration - Check this box to enable IPv4.Obtain IP address via DHCP - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol that lets network administratorscentrally manage and automate the assignment of IP addresses on a network. DHCP is enabled by default. Although a DHCPserver is mostly used to set an IP address dynamically, it is also possible to use it to set a static, known IP address for aparticular MAC address.Note:DHCP should only be enabled if using dynamic IP address notification (see below), or if your DHCP server can update aDNS server, which then allows you to access AXIS Q7414 by name (host name). If DHCP is enabled and you cannotaccess the unit, you may have to reset it to the factory default settings and then perform the installation again.Use the following IP address - To use a static IP address for a channel of AXIS Q7414, check the radio button and thenmake the following settings:• IP address - Specify a unique IP address. (To check if the IP address you intend to use is available or not, click the Test but-ton)• Subnet mask - Specify the mask for the subnet AXIS Q7414 is located on• Default router - Specify the IP address of the default router (gateway) used for connecting devices attached to differentnetworks and network segments.IPv6 Address Configuration - Check the box to enable IPv6. Other settings for IPv6 are configured in the network router.Services - Enable ARP/Ping setting of IP address - The IP address can be set using the ARP/Ping method, which associatesthe unit's MAC address with an IP address. Check this box to enable the service. Leave disabled to prevent unintentionalresetting of the IP address.Notes:• The ARP/Ping service is automatically disabled two minutes after the unit is started, or as soon as an IP address isset.• Pinging the unit is still possible when this service is disabled.Enable AVHS - AXIS Video Hosting System (AVHS) in conjunction with an AVHS service provides easy and secure Internetaccess to live and recorded video accessible from any location. For more information and help to find a local AVHS ServiceProvider please go to www.axis.com. If AVHS is not to be used this option can be disabled.
