Daily operation

This chapter describes the functions in the AXIS Camera Station that may be used on a daily basis: events
search, live image viewing, log files and configuration check, as well as remote connections.

Events search
AXIS Camera Station offers easy ways to search for recorded events. The Event Search function pulls up re-
cordings that are triggered by alarms or by manual recordings. The 4-camera Playback function plays simul-
taneous recordings from up to four cameras, enabling users to obtain a comprehensive picture of events.
Figure 7.1a. By selecting the camera and the date, AXIS Camera Station will search for and display the recordings.
To search, simply select a camera and the date and time, and you will get sample images of all events
found. Double-clicking on the image plays the recorded sequence. Another option is to view the recorded
events on a timeline. This will show when recordings are present during a selected period of time, as well
as the type of recording (manual, continuous or triggered).
Each recorded event can be locked from the log search window. This means that the event recording will
not be deleted even if the AXIS Camera Station engine detects that the event is older than the config-
ured days to keep recordings. The event recording will remain on the hard drive until it is unlocked.
During playback, you can zoom into the video and continue to playback the stream in zoomed-in mode.
