Video and Audio

For quick setup, use one of the predefined stream profiles. Each predefined profile has a descriptive name, indicating its purpose. If required, the predefined stream profiles can be modified and new customized stream profiles can be created.

To create a new profile or modify an existing profile, go to Setup > Video & Audio > Stream Profiles.

To select a default stream profile for the Live View page, go to Setup > Live View Config .

Camera Settings

The Video & Audio > Camera Settings page provides access to advanced image settings for the Axis product.

Capture Mode

Important

Changing capture mode when the product has been configured is not recommended as most other settings will be either removed or reset.

To change capture mode, follow these steps:

1.Go to Setup > Video & Audio > Camera Settings.

2.Select the new capture mode.

3.Click Save.

4.Review and reconfigure all settings, for example:

-Stream profiles

-PTZ settings including preset positions and guard tours

-Motion detection windows

-Privacy masks

-Image overlays

-Exposure zones

-Action rules

-Settings in uploaded applications

Image Appearance

Increasing the Color level increases the color saturation. The value 100 gives maximum color saturation. The value 0 gives a black and white image.

The image Brightness can be adjusted in the range 0–100, where a higher value produces a brighter image.

Increasing the Sharpness can increase bandwidth usage. A sharper image might increase image noise especially in low light conditions. A lower setting reduces image noise, but the whole image will appear less sharp.

White Balance

White balance is used to make colors in the image appear the same regardless of the color temperature of the light source. The Axis product can be set to automatically identify the light source and compensate for its color. Alternatively, select the type of light

source from the drop-down list. For a description of each available setting, see the online help.
