Audio Settings (AXIS M1031-W)

This section describes how to configure the basic audio settings for the AXIS M1031-W network camera.

The audio functionality is enabled under Video & Audio > Video Stream > Audio.

Audio Channels

Audio mode - Full duplex provides simultaneous two-way audio. Transmit and receive audio (talk and listen) at the same time.

Note:

The AXIS M1031-W does not have echo cancelling so that using full duplex mode may cause audio feedback.

The Half-duplexmode transmits and receives audio in both directions, but only in one direction at a time. To speak, press and hold the button (check that the microphone is not muted). To receive audio, release the button.

Note:

The push-to-talk button is configured from AMC (see AXIS Media Control (AMC), on page 13). It is possible to configure the push-to-talk button so that it toggles between the speaking and listening modes.

With the Simplex - Network Camera speaker only option, the speaker connected to the camera plays audio, but no audio is transmitted from the camera to other web clients. This could be used to provide spoken instructions to a person seen in the camera. This mode requires you to use the push-to-talk button.

Simplex - Network Camera microphone only mode - transmits audio only from the network camera to web clients. It does not receive audio from other web clients. This can be used in remote monitoring, and web attractions, to provide live audio and video of a monitored situation.

When using Half-duplex, the Send the sound from the active client to all other clients option transmits the audio signal from the client that is talking to other clients.
