rule when the network connection is lost. Select No to trigger the action rule when the network connection
is restored.
• Input Signal
- Speaker Test Performed – Triggers an action rule after an Auto Speaker Test has been performed and, either
OK or failed. It can be used to, for example, send a notification to an operator when a speaker test has been
performed after the product has restarted.
- Virtual Inputs – Triggers the action rule when one of the virtual inputs changes states. It can be used by a
client such as an access management system, through the VAPIX® application programming interface, to trigger
actions. Virtual inputs can, for example, be connected to buttons in the management system's user interface.
• System
- System Ready – Triggers the action rule when the system is in state ready. For example, the Axis product can
detect the system state and send a notification when the system has started.
Select Yes to trigger the action rule when the product is in state ready. Note that the rule will only trigger when
all necessary services, such as the event system, has started.
• Time

trigger to initiate recurring actions such as sending notifications every hour. Select a recurrence pattern or create
a new one. For more information about setting up a recurrence pattern, see How to set up recurrences on page 24.
- Use Schedule – Trigger the rule according to the selected schedule. See How to create schedules on page 24.
About actions
