AXIS 225FD - Event Configuration 25

Configuring Event Types

An Event Type describes how and when the camera will perform certain actions.

Example: If somebody passes in front of the camera, and an event that uses motion detection has been configured to act on this, the camera can e.g. record and save images to an FTP server, and/or send a notification email to a pre-config- ured email address with a pre-configured mes- sage. Images can be sent as email attachments.

Triggered Event

A Triggered event can be activated by e.g:

•a switch (e.g. a push button) connected to the camera’s input port

•detected movement in a configured motion detection window

•a manually activated action, e.g. from an action button in the web interface

•on restart (reboot) after e.g. power loss

•a temperature warning

How to set up a triggered event

This example describes how to set the camera to upload images when e.g the main door is opened:

1.Click Add triggered on the Event types page.

2.Enter a descriptive name for the event, e.g. Main door open.

3.Set the priority - High, Normal or Low (see the online help).

4.Set the Respond to Trigger... parameters for when the event will be active, e.g. only after office hours.

5.Select the trigger alternative from the Triggered by... drop-down list, e.g. select Input ports, for the sensor connected to the door.

6.Set the When Triggered... parameters, i.e. define what the camera will do if the main door is opened e.g., upload images to an FTP server.

7.Click OK to save the Event in the Event Types list.

Please see the online help for descriptions of each available option.

Note: Up to 10 event types can be configured in the camera, and up to 3 of these can be configured to upload images.

225FD specifications

Axis Communications, a pioneer in network video solutions, continues to innovate with the introduction of the Axis 225FD, a cutting-edge fixed dome network camera designed to enhance surveillance capabilities in various environments. This device strives to meet the demanding requirements of modern security by combining advanced imaging technology with user-friendly features.

One of the standout characteristics of the Axis 225FD is its exceptional image quality. It boasts a high-resolution sensor capable of capturing detailed images even in low light conditions. This is further enhanced by Axis' Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology, which ensures that both bright and dark areas within a scene are clearly visible. This feature is particularly useful in dynamic lighting situations, such as entryways where bright sunlight may contrast with shaded areas.

The Axis 225FD is equipped with a built-in microphone to capture audio along with video, adding another layer of context to footage. This feature is invaluable for various applications, allowing security personnel to not only see but also hear events as they unfold, leading to more comprehensive situational awareness.

For adaptability, the camera supports PoE (Power over Ethernet), simplifying installation by allowing both power and data transfer through a single cable. This efficiency means less clutter and easier setup, making the Axis 225FD suitable for diverse installation environments, including retail spaces, offices, and public areas.

In terms of security features, the Axis 225FD supports multiple streams, enabling different resolutions for different scenarios. This flexibility ensures that users can tailor the video quality based on their bandwidth constraints while maintaining critical surveillance capabilities. Moreover, the camera is equipped with tampering alarms that send notifications if it is moved or obstructed, further bolstering security measures.

Durability is another critical consideration with the Axis 225FD. Designed to withstand the rigors of various environments, the camera is housed in a robust casing that protects it from dust and moisture, meeting IP66 and IK08 standards. This resilience ensures that the camera remains operational in challenging conditions, providing reliable surveillance year-round.

In summary, the Axis Communications 225FD is a state-of-the-art surveillance solution that excels in key areas such as image quality, audio capture, installation flexibility, and security features. With its durable design and advanced technologies, it stands out as a top choice for organizations looking to enhance their monitoring capabilities and ensure the safety of people and assets.
