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. SeeAudio 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 30.

-Tampering – Trigger the rule when tampering is detected. SeeCamera Tampering, on page 30.

•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. SeeI/O Ports, on page 50.
