User Defined Links
User defined links can link to web pages, or can be used to run
scripts or activate and control external devices connected to the
network camera. Once configured, the links appear on the Live
View page.
To set up a link, check the Show custom link box, select the cgi
or web link radio button, enter the URL and a descriptive name
in the provided field.
A link defined as a web link will open in a new window, while a
cgi link will run for example a script in the background.
User defined cgi links can be used to issue API requests. For more
information on the VAPIX Application Programming Interface
(API), see the Video developer pages at Axis Web site

display the output buttons on the Live View page, select the type of control to use for the port from the drop-down list:
• Pulse - Activates the output for a defined period of time
• Active/Inactive - Displays two buttons, one for each action (on/off)
See also Ports & Devices, on page 45.
