Set up a camera
To set up an Axon Outpost camera, first Sign in and connect to the camera.
Camera information
Once connected to a camera (see link above), the AOM app shows several options such as Reset network, Run ALPR Test, Camera orientation, and Disconnect. If the camera is not yet registered, you'll only see Device time and Firmware version.
Optionally, select Device Info to see details about the camera, such as date and time, general information, agency, network interfaces, storage, and battery.
Network connection
Select Continue, then choose how the device should connect to the internet: through LTE or a modem connected through the USB-C port.
Connect through LTE network
- Ensure nothing is plugged into the camera's USB-C port.
- Select Use LTE to set up the camera’s cellular modem for use with either AT&T Firstnet or Verizon Frontline, then Continue, then Confirm.
- If during this process you are prompted that the Wi-Fi network isn't connected to the internet, select Keep Trying Wi-Fi.
Use USB-C modem
- Connect your modem to the Axon Outpost USB-C port using an appropriate cable.
- Select Use USB-C modem, then Continue, then Confirm.
- Monitor the app as it connects to the network and tests different carriers. This can take up to six minutes; keep the app open and displayed during this time. Choose which one to provision based on the results, Submit, and then Continue.
- Confirm the LED ring illuminates magenta as Axon Outpost tests carriers.
- Monitor the messages as the camera connects to your selected LTE carrier.
- Confirm the LED ring illuminates blue when Axon Outpost connects to your chosen carrier.
