Events

Events

The Axis product can be configured to perform actions when different events occur, for example, start a recording when motion is detected. The set of conditions that defines how and when the action is triggered is called an Action Rule.

Available Action Rule triggers and conditions include:

•Applications — use installed applications to trigger the rule, see Applications, on page 38.

•Detectors

-Audio Detection — trigger the rule when audio is detected, see Audio Detection, on page 37.

-Day/Night Mode — trigger the rule when the product switches between day mode (IR cut filter on) and night mode (IR cut filter off). This can for example be used to control an external infrared (IR) light connected

to an output port.

-Motion Detection — trigger the rule when motion is detected, see Motion Detection, on page 35.

-Tampering — trigger the rule when tampering is detected, see Camera Tampering, on page 35.

•Hardware

-Network — trigger the rule if network connection is lost or restored. This can for example be used to start recording to the SD card.

-Temperature — trigger the rule if the temperature falls outside or inside the operating range of the product. This can for example be used to send maintenance notifications.

•Input Signal

-Digital Input Port — trigger the rule when an I/O port receives a signal from a connected device, see I/O Ports, on page 52.

-Manual Trigger — trigger the rule using the Manual Trigger button in the Live View page, see Controls on the Live View Page, on page 14. This can for example be used to validate actions during product installation and configuration.

•PTZ

-Moving — trigger the rule when the camera view moves due to a PTZ operation. This can for example be used as an additional condition to prevent an action rule triggered by motion detection to record video while the camera view moves due to a PTZ operation.

-Preset Reached — trigger the rule when the camera stops at a preset position. This can be for example be used with the Send Images action to upload images from the preset position.

•Storage

-Available — trigger the rule when the storage device is unmounted or removed. This can for example be used to send maintenance notifications.

-Full — trigger the rule when the storage device is full. Under normal operation, the oldest recordings will be overwritten to prevent the storage device from becoming full.

-Locked — trigger the rule if the storage device is locked (write protected).

•System

-System Initializing — trigger the rule when the product is being started. This can for example be used to send a notification when the product restarts.
