Problems with streaming H.264

Problems with AXIS Media Control (Internet Explorer only)

To enable the updating of video images in Internet Explorer, set the browser to allow ActiveX controls. Also, make sure that AXIS Media Control is installed on your computer.

Control Panel (streaming tab). See AXIS Media Control (AMC) on page 11 .

 

In the AMC Control Panel, select the H.264 tab and click Set to default H.264 decoder.

 

Check that RTSP is enabled under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Advanced.

Multicast H.264 only

Check if your router supports multicasting, or if the router settings between the client and the

Check the video stream and camera settings under Setup > Video > Video Stream and Setup >

 

Video > Camera Settings.

Motion Detection triggers unexpectedly

 

 

Changes in thermal radiation

Motion detection is based on changes in thermal radiation in the image. This means that if there

 

are sudden changes in the ambient temperature, motion detection may trigger mistakenly. Lower

 

the sensitivity setting to avoid problems with thermal radiation.

Storage and disk management problems

 

 

Storage disruption

A storage disruption alarm is sent if a storage device is unavailable, removed, full, locked or if other

 

read or write problems occur. To identify the source of the problem, check the System Log under

System Options > Support > Logs & Reports. Depending on the problem, it might be necessary to re-mount the storage device.

For information on how to set up a storage disruption alarm, see Events on page 31.

Q1932E specifications

Axis Communications, a leading provider of network video solutions, offers a range of advanced surveillance cameras designed to meet the needs of various security applications. Among their innovative products is the Axis Q1932E, a robust thermal network camera that excels in challenging environments where visibility is compromised.

The Q1932E is particularly valued for its ability to detect and monitor objects and people in complete darkness, smoke, fog, or adverse weather conditions. This capability stems from its thermal imaging technology, which detects heat emitted by objects rather than relying on visible light. As a result, users can achieve reliable surveillance across different lighting conditions, making it ideal for critical applications like perimeter security, transportation, and infrastructure monitoring.

One of the main features of the Axis Q1932E is its resolution. The camera offers a thermal resolution of 384x288 pixels, allowing for detailed thermal imaging. This resolution is crucial for identifying potential threats even from a distance. The built-in digital Pan-Tilt-Zoom (dPTZ) capability allows users to zoom in on specific areas of interest, enhancing monitoring efficiency without losing sight of the broader scene.

Durability is another key characteristic of the Q1932E. It is designed with a weatherproof casing, complying with the IP66 standard, ensuring it can withstand harsh weather conditions such as rain, wind, and fluctuating temperatures. This rugged design makes it suitable for outdoor installations in various environments.

The camera also features Axis' advanced video analytics capabilities, enabling motion detection and edge analytics. These functionalities allow users to receive real-time alerts and notifications when unusual activity is detected, enhancing response times to potential security threats. The integration of Axis’ Zipstream technology further optimizes bandwidth and storage usage, reducing costs while maintaining high-quality video streams.

Installation is made convenient with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, which allows both data and power to be delivered through a single cable, simplifying the setup process. Additionally, the camera supports various mounting options, providing flexibility to adapt to different surveillance needs.

In summary, the Axis Q1932E thermal network camera is a powerful tool for security professionals seeking to enhance their surveillance capabilities. With its superior thermal imaging, durability, advanced analytics, and ease of installation, it is an excellent choice for ensuring safety and security in any environment, regardless of the lighting conditions.
