Action Buttons

These buttons can be used to manually trigger and stop an event from the Live View page. The snapshot button allows you to take a snapshot of the video stream and save it to a computer.

Output Buttons

These buttons are used to control the outputs on the AXIS 231D+/232D+ and thus the equipment connected to them, e.g. to switch a light on or off:

•The Pulse button activates the port for a defined period

•Active/Inactive displays 2 buttons, one for each action (on/off)

Default Video Format

Select the default video format to use on the Live View page. Checking the box for Show video format selection displays a drop-down list on the Live View page allowing you to temporarily change the format.

When using MPEG-4 as the video format, the default viewer is AXIS Media Control with Internet Explorer.

Note: It is also possible to view Motion JPEG when MPEG-4 is chosen as default and vice versa.

Default Viewer

From the drop-down lists, select the default method for viewing video images for your browser. The camera will attempt to show the video images in the selected video format and viewer. If this is not possible, the camera will override the settings and select the best available combination.
