AXIS 210/211 - Product Features 5
Product Features
The AXIS 210 and the AXIS 211 are part of the latest generation of fully featured Axis Network Cameras, all based on the AXIS ARTPEC-2 compression chip. The AXIS 211 features a DC-Iris and support for Power over Ethernet (PoE). All instructions and information in this manual are valid for both cameras unless otherwise stated.
The video streams from the cameras are made available on the network as real-time, full frame rate Motion JPEG and/or MPEG-4 video streams. The cameras include Video Motion Detection, which can be used to trigger e.g. image uploads when there is activity in the video image. Uploads can also be scheduled to run at specified times. Security features include IP address filtering and multilevel password protection.
The cameras are equipped with an alarm input and an output, which can be connected to various external devices, e.g. door sensors and alarm bells.
Video can be viewed in various different resolutions. Up to 20 viewers can access a camera simultaneously when using Motion JPEG. If MPEG-4 multicast is used, the number of viewers is unlimited, but each viewer still needs a separate MPEG-4 decoder license. There is one license included in the product, and additional licenses can be purchased separately.
The cameras have their own built-in web server, providing full access to all features through the use of a standard web browser. The built-in scripting tool allows the creation of basic applications. For advanced functionality, the cameras can be accessed via the AXIS HTTP API (more info at www.axis.com/developer).
