AXIS P5414–E PTZ Dome Network Camera

Events

Events

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:

Applications — use installed applications to trigger the rule, see Applications, on page 33.

Detectors

-Audio Detection — trigger the rule when audio is detected, see Audio Detection, on page 32.

-Day/Night Mode — trigger the rule when the product switches between day mode (IR cut filter on) and night mode (IR cut filter off). This can for example be used to control an external infrared (IR) light connected

to an output port.

-Live Stream Accessed — trigger the rule when any stream is accessed and during edge storage playback. This can for example be used to send notifications.

-Motion Detection — trigger the rule when motion is detected, see Motion Detection, on page 31.

Hardware

-Network — trigger the rule if network connection is lost or restored. This can for example be used to start recording to the SD card.

-Temperature — trigger the rule if the temperature falls outside or inside the operating range of the product. This can for example be used to send maintenance notifications.

Input Signal

-Digital Input Port — trigger the rule when an I/O port receives a signal from a connected device, see I/O Ports, on page 51.

-Manual Trigger — trigger the rule using the Manual Trigger button in the Live View page, see Controls on the Live View Page, on page 9 . This can for example be used to validate actions during product installation and configuration.

-Virtual Inputs — can be used by a VMS (Video Management System) to trigger actions. Virtual inputs can, for example, be connected to buttons in the VMS user interface.

PTZ

-Error — trigger the rule if the PTZ functionality is not working correctly. This can for example be used to send maintenance notifications.

-Moving — trigger the rule when the camera view moves due to a PTZ operation. This can for example be used as an additional condition to prevent an action rule triggered by motion detection to record video while the camera view moves due to a PTZ operation.

-Preset Reached — trigger the rule when the camera stops at a preset position. This can be for example be used with the Send Images action to upload images from the preset position.

-Ready — trigger the rule when the PTZ functionality is ready to be used. This can for example be used to steer the camera to a specific preset position when the product is started.

Storage

-Disruption — trigger the rule if storage problems are detected, for example if the storage device is unavailable, removed, full, locked or if other read or write problems occur. This can for example be used to send maintenance notifications.

P5414E specifications

The Axis Communications P5414E is a high-performance pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) network camera designed for versatile surveillance applications. Ideal for outdoor environments, this camera combines advanced imaging technology with sophisticated features, catering to the needs of security professionals looking for reliable performance.

One of the standout features of the P5414E is its 720p resolution capability, providing clear and sharp images for effective monitoring. The camera is equipped with a powerful 18x optical zoom, enabling users to zoom in on specific areas without losing image quality. This is particularly useful in scenarios where detailed surveillance is crucial, such as monitoring large open spaces or capturing high-definition images of distant subjects.

The P5414E employs Axis’ streaming technology, allowing for smooth and efficient video transmission over the network. It supports multiple H.264 and Motion JPEG streams, enabling users to customize the stream quality depending on their networking conditions and storage needs. This flexibility is essential for optimizing bandwidth usage while maintaining image fidelity.

For nighttime surveillance, the P5414E incorporates advanced infrared (IR) technology, allowing it to capture high-quality images even in low-light conditions. With a built-in IR illuminator, the camera can provide visibility in complete darkness, ensuring continuous monitoring around the clock.

The camera's rugged design is specifically built to withstand harsh weather conditions. It includes an IP66-rated housing, making it resistant to dust and water ingress, while also operating effectively in a temperature range of -40°C to 50°C (-40°F to 122°F). This durability makes the P5414E suitable for a variety of challenging environments.

In addition to its robust features, the P5414E includes Axis’ advanced analytic functionalities, such as digital auto tracking and motion detection. These features enhance the camera's capability to alert users of suspicious activities in real time, significantly improving the effectiveness of security operations.

Moreover, the camera is equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying installation and reducing the need for multiple cables. This integration of power and data transmission through a single cable not only streamlines setup but also ensures a more efficient and reliable operation.

The Axis Communications P5414E represents the pinnacle of surveillance technology, combining high-resolution video, robust features, and practical design to meet the demands of modern security environments. Its cutting-edge technologies provide users with the tools needed for comprehensive monitoring and effective response to security threats.
