AXIS 233D - Event Config 37

Event Types

An Event Type is a set of parameters describing how and when the Network Dome Camera is to perform certain actions.

Example: If a door is opened, and an event has been configured to act on this, the Network Dome Camera can record and save video images to an FTP server or send a notification email to a pre-configured email address with a pre-config- ured message. Video images can be sent as an attachment with the email.

Triggered Event

A triggered event can be activated by:

A signal from external equipment connected to an input port on the camera, for example a pushbutton.

A manual action such as clicking the Manual trigger button on the Live View page. Events can also be triggered manually via the product’s API (Application Programming Interface).

Movement in a motion detection window.

A rise or fall of the sound level.

Restart (reboot), for example after power loss.

Temperature outside the operating range of the camera. This could for example indicate problems with the outdoor housing.

PTZ preset positions.

Auto tracking.

How to set up a triggered event

This example describes how to set the Network Dome Camera to upload images when the main door is opened:

1.Click Add triggered on the Event Types page.

2.Enter a descriptive Name for the event, such as Main door.

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

4.Set the Respond to Trigger... parameters when the event is to be active, such as, only after office hours

5.Select the trigger alternative from the Triggered by... drop-down list, such as an Input port with a connected sensor if the door is opened.

233D specifications

Axis Communications, a pioneer in the field of network video solutions, has continually pushed the envelope in surveillance technology with its innovative products. Among its esteemed offerings, the Axis 233D stands out as a formidable tool for both security professionals and organizations seeking comprehensive monitoring solutions.

The Axis 233D is a high-performance PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) network camera designed for demanding surveillance environments. One of its main features is the ability to provide high-resolution video streaming at 30 frames per second, ensuring that users can capture clear and detailed images, even in dynamic situations. This camera supports a resolution of up to 2 megapixels, which enhances its ability to deliver crisp visuals, crucial for identifying individuals and objects in the monitored areas.

Equipped with advanced pan, tilt, and zoom capabilities, the Axis 233D can cover expansive areas with ease. The camera offers a 360-degree endless rotation for pan movements and a wide field of view, making it ideal for large spaces like parking lots, shopping centers, and public transport stations. The powerful zoom lens allows operators to focus on specific subjects from a distance, which is essential in security monitoring.

The Axis 233D also employs robust technologies to ensure excellent performance in various lighting conditions. With integrated WDR (Wide Dynamic Range), this camera can balance scenes with significant contrasts in lighting, ensuring that both bright and dark areas are clearly visible. Additionally, features like digital noise reduction contribute to clearer images in low-light situations, making it versatile for day and night operation.

Another characteristic that sets the Axis 233D apart is its network functionality. This camera supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying installation as it requires only a single Ethernet cable for both power and data transfer. It also leverages Axis' advanced video compression technologies, including H.264, which optimizes bandwidth usage while maintaining high image quality.

Furthermore, the Axis 233D is embedded with intelligent video analytics, enabling proactive monitoring. Functions such as motion detection and object tracking help users respond quickly to potential security threats. This capability is critical in real-time environments where each moment counts.

In summary, the Axis Communications 233D is a high-end surveillance solution that marries advanced technology with user-friendly features. With its PTZ functionalities, exceptional image quality, robust performance in varying light conditions, and intelligent analytics, it serves as an indispensable asset for security professionals looking to enhance their surveillance systems effectively. As security needs continue to evolve, the Axis 233D remains at the forefront of addressing those challenges.
