AXIS 231D+/232D+ - Using the Network Dome Camera 9

If the AXIS 231D+/232D+ has been customized, the buttons and other items described below will be displayed accordingly on the Live View page. The following provides an overview of each button:

The Video Format drop-down list allows the video format on the Live View page to be temporarily changed.

The Output buttons control an output directly from the Live View page. These buttons are configured under Setup > Live View Config > Layout.

Pulse - click this button to activate the port for a defined period of time, e.g. to switch on a light for 20 seconds.

Active/Inactive - click these buttons to manually start and stop a connected device, e.g. switch a light on/off.

These buttons start/stop the Sequence Mode. This mode is created in Setup > Live View Config > Sequence mode and automatically displays the view from preset positions at set intervals.

The Action buttons trigger an action directly from the Live View page. These buttons are configured under Setup > Live View Config > Layout. Click these buttons to manually start and stop events.

Use the Snapshot button to capture a snapshot of the image currently being displayed in the window. Right-click on the image to save it in JPEG format on your computer.

Click the Ctrl panel button to access the following buttons:

Auto focus: Automatically adjusts the image focus.

Auto iris: Automatically adjusts the amount of light reaching the image sensor for best image results.

Backlight comp: Enabling backlight compensation makes the subject clearer if the image background is too bright, or if the subject is too dark.

IR cut filter (AXIS 232D+ only) - when set to off, the camera will be able to “see” infrared light, e.g. at night, thus making the image clearer. The image is shown in black & white when the IR cut filter is off. Set to Auto to automatically turn the filter off when the available visible light falls below the mini- mum requirement.

Note: There are different buttons in the Control Panel depending on the web browser you are using, but the descriptions and functionality are the same.
