Resetting the Camera

You can reset your camera to factory defaults in three ways:

  1. Via the IR remote control (with or without OSD)
  2. Via the Web GUI see guide
  3. Via an Avonic PTZ controller see guide

Note: This resets the IP address to 192.168.5.163.

Reset via IR Remote Control

To restore factory defaults, press the following combination on the remote:

  • [*] → [#] → [6]

Press each button one after another, not simultaneously.

Reset via OSD Menu

Press the MENU button on the IR remote to open the OSD menu on a monitor. Navigate to Restore Defaults and press HOME to confirm.

Use the LEFT/RIGHT arrows to select "YES" and press HOME to confirm.

Reset IP Configuration (CM4x/CM7x)

To reset only the IP configuration (IP address, gateway, DNS), use:

  • [*] → [#] → [Manual]

This also resets the admin username/password, but not user1/user2.
