AXIS 240Q - Using the video server
Notes: •To view streaming video in Microsoft Internet Explorer, you must set your browser to allow
ActiveX controls and allow AMC (AXIS Media Control) to be installed on your workstation. If
your workstation restricts the use of additional software components, the AXIS 240Q can be
configured to use a Java applet for updating JPEG images. Please see the online help for more
information.
•User functions in the AXIS 240Q may have been customized to meet the specific requirements
of the application. Consequently, the examples and functions in this section may differ from
those displayed on your Live View page.
The Live View page
If the AXIS 240Q 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:
To resize the displayed image, click the View Size buttons: half-size
(x1/2), full-size (x1), x2 or x4. This will not change the resolution of the
image (not available in Sequence Mode).
The Output buttons control a n 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 2 or more video sources at set intervals.
From the Source list, select the desired video image(s). The list can
contain internal video sources, external video sources, or the Quad
Stream view. The Quad Stream option displays all four video images
in one stream.
The Action buttons trigger an event 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 on your
computer.
