The Axis product can be configured to perform actions when different events occur, for example, start a recording when motion is detected. The set of conditions that defines how and when the action is triggered is called an Action Rule.

Available action rule triggers and conditions include:

Detectors

-Motion Detection – Trigger the rule when motion is detected. See Motion Detection on page 22.

-Tampering – Trigger the rule when tampering is detected. See Camera Tampering on page 22.

Hardware
