Events
Predefined parameters, known as an Event or Event Type, can trigger actions in the Axis product. A common event type is an alarm
that causes the product to upload images to an Event Server.
Triggered events - are activated by a signal, for example motion detection.
Scheduled events - run at preset times, in a repeating pattern on selected weekdays.
Actions - refer to what happens when an event occurs.
Triggered events can be activated by:
• Motion detection, see page 26
• A trigger from an uploaded application, see Applications, on page 23
• Pan Tilt Zoom — when the view stops at a preset position
• Full disk — when the SD card has less than 1 MB free memory left
• System events, for example on boot.
Event actions include:
• Uploading images to an event server or send images by email
• Saving the video stream to the product's SD card
• Sending notification messages and emails
• Pan Tilt Zoom — go to a preset
