Events
The Axis product can be configured to perform actions when different events occur, for example, start a recording when motion is
detected. The set of conditions that defines how and when the action is triggered is called an Action Rule.
Available action rule triggers and conditions include:
• Applications – Use installed applications to trigger the rule. See Applications on page 25.
• Detectors
- Motion Detection – Trigger the rule when motion is detected. See Motion Detection on page 22.
- Tampering – Trigger the rule when tampering is detected. See Camera Tampering on page 22.
• Hardware
- Network – Trigger the rule if network connection is lost or restored. This can for example be used to start
recording to the SD card.
• Input Signal
- Digital Input Port – Trigger the rule when an I/O port receives a signal from a connected device. See I/O
Ports on page 41.
- Manual Trigger – Trigger the rule using the Manual Trigger button in the Live View page. See Controls on
the Live View Page on page 9 . This can for example be used to validate actions during product installation

send maintenance notifications.

overwritten to prevent the storage device from becoming full.
