AXIS Q6045-E PTZ Dome Network Camera

Events

-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.

-Recording — triggers the rule when the Axis product records to the storage device. The recording status trigger can be used to notify the operator, for example by flashing LED lights, if the product has started or stopped to record to the storage device. Note that, this trigger can be used only for edge storage recording status.

System

-Shock Detected — Trigger the rule when the Axis product detects it has been tilted or hit. See Shock Detection, on page 30.

-System Ready — trigger the rule when the product has been started and all services are running. This can for example be used to send a notification when the product restarts.

Time

-Recurrence — trigger the rule periodically, see Recurrences, on page 39. This can for example be used to upload an image every 5 minutes.

-Use Schedule — trigger the rule according to the selected schedule, see Schedules, on page 38.

Available actions include:

Day/Night Vision Mode — set day mode (IR cut filter on) or night mode (IR cut filter off).

Overlay Text — display an overlay text, see Using Overlay Text in an Action Rule, on page 21.

PTZ Control

-Autotracking — start autotracking, see Autotracking, on page 26.

-Preset Position — go to a preset position.

-Guard Tour — start a guard tour, see Guard Tour, on page 27.

Record Video — record video to a selected storage.

Send Images — send images to a recipient.

Send Notifications — send a notification message to a recipient.

Send Video Clip — send a video clip to a recipient.

Setting Up an Action Rule

An action rule defines the conditions that must be met for the product to perform an action, for example record video or send an email notification. If multiple conditions are defined, all of them must be met to trigger the action.

The following example describes how to set up an action rule to record video to a network share if there is movement in the camera’s field of view.

Set up motion detection and add a network share:

1.Go to Detectors > Motion Detection and configure a motion detection window, see page 30

2.Go to System Options > Storage and set up the network share, see page 50.

Q6045-E specifications

Axis Communications Q6045-E is an advanced network camera designed specifically for professional surveillance applications. This camera exemplifies Axis's commitment to high-performance video surveillance solutions, combining cutting-edge technology with robust design features.

One of the standout characteristics of the Q6045-E is its exceptional imaging capabilities. Equipped with a 1/2.8” sensor, it delivers high-resolution video at up to 1080p, ensuring clear and detailed images even in challenging lighting conditions. The camera supports a wide dynamic range (WDR), enabling it to capture high-quality images in environments with varying light levels, such as areas that experience both bright sunlight and deep shadows.

The Q6045-E also integrates a powerful 30x optical zoom lens, which allows for detailed close-ups of objects at a distance. This feature is essential for applications requiring precise identification, such as monitoring perimeters, parking lots, and business premises. The camera includes intelligent video analytics capabilities, providing features like motion detection, tampering alarm, and audio detection, enhancing the effectiveness of security measures.

Another noteworthy aspect is the camera’s PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) functionality. It can pan 360 degrees and tilt from -20 to 90 degrees, providing extensive coverage and flexibility for optimal surveillance. This means a single Q6045-E can monitor vast areas, reducing the need for multiple cameras and thus lowering overall system costs.

Durability and reliability are also key features of the Q6045-E. Designed for outdoor use, the camera is IP66-rated and NEMA 4X-rated, which means it can withstand harsh weather conditions, including rain, snow, and extreme temperatures. The built-in heater ensures consistent performance in cold environments, maintaining both functionality and image quality.

The camera is powered over Ethernet (PoE), facilitating easy installation with just one cable for both data and power. This simplifies the setup process and reduces additional wiring costs. Additionally, the Q6045-E supports various video compression formats, including H.264 and H.265, allowing for efficient bandwidth usage without compromising video quality.

In conclusion, Axis Communications Q6045-E is a feature-rich choice for any professional surveillance system, offering high-resolution video, intelligent analytics, robust durability, and flexible installation options. Its innovative technologies make it an ideal solution for enhancing security and surveillance efforts in a wide range of environments.
