It is recommended that you write down the settings for respective camera functions. If you have forgotten the settings and 
want to set the camera from the beginning, restore the factory default settings first. 
*For factory default settings, see p. 161. 
Restoring the Initial Setting from the 
Maintenance Page in the Web Browser
To display the settings menu, you need to enter the IP 
address of the camera, user name and administrator 
password (p. 32).  
The maintenance page appears. 
A confirmation message appears, asking if you want 
to restore the default settings.  To restore the default 
settings, click [OK].Except for the following items, all user-defined 
settings will be discarded and restored to factory 
default settings after the camera is rebooted.
– Network administrator password, LAN, IPv4, IPv6
– Date and time
– Host access restrictions for access control
–SSL/TLS
– 802.1X
Restoring Factory Default Settings with 
the Reset Switch on the Camera
If you have forgotten or do not know the IP address of the 
camera or your Administrator password, you cannot 
operate the camera via the network. In this case, press 
the reset switch at the back of the camera.
For top cover removal, see the “Installation Guide” 
included with the camera.
There is no on/off switch on the camera. Turn the 
camera on and off by plugging in or unplugging the 
LAN cable (PoE power supply).
Restore Default Settings
1Launch the web browser and display the settings 
menu. 
2On the Setting Menu page, click [Maintenance]. 
3Click [Exec] under [Restore Default Settings].
Caution
 You must not turn off the camera while it is 
performing the [Restore Default Settings] 
operation. Turning off the camera at this stage 
may result in disabling its ability to boot correctly. 
 Once [OK] is clicked, you can no longer stop the 
process of restoring the default settings.
1For VB-S30D/VB-S31D/VB-S800D, remove the top 
cover.
2Turn off the camera.  
						

							160
The reset switch is located in a recessed area. Push 
the switch using the tip of a slender object such as a 
clip. 
All settings of the camera, except for the date and 
time, are restored to factory default settings. For top cover attachment, see the “Installation Guide” 
included with the camera.
3Turn on the power while pushing the reset switch, and 
keep pushing the reset switch for 5 seconds or more.
Important
If the reset switch is pushed, network-related settings will also 
be restored to factory default settings including the cameras IP 
address, subnet mask, default gateway address, etc. 
Accordingly, you can no longer operate the camera from the 
computer you were using to connect to the camera before. 
When initializing the camera, use the “VB Initial Setting Tool” 
installed in your computer to set an IP address appropriate for 
the environment in which the camera is used (See “Performing 
Initial Settings for the Camera” (p. 28)).
