Mounting AXIS blade video servers
The AXIS Video Server Rack can accommodate 3 Axis blade video servers. The slots for these are
numbered 1-3 from left to right, as seen from the front. The I/O connectors for each slot on the rear
panel are also numbered.
1. Remove a front panel cover from the slot in which the video server will be mounted. This is
done by unfastening the screw on each side of the cover.
2. Slide the video server into place, using the guides as an aid. The dip switch for setting the line
termination should be visible on the top edge.
3. Fix the video server in place, using the screws from the front panel cover.
Note:
Leaving an empty slot on the AXIS Video Server Rack open is not permitted. Front panel covers must
be used on all empty slots.
The I/O Terminal connector
The AXIS Video Server Rack server provides an I/O terminal connector for each Axis blade video
server (see illustration on page 4). This is used for connecting external equipment, in applications
for e.g. motion detection, event triggering, time lapse recording, alarm notification via email, image
storage to FTP locations, etc.
