Events

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 31.
• Detectors
- Day/Night Mode – Trigger the rule when the product switches between day mode (IR cut filter on) and night
mode (IR cut filter off). This can for example be used to control an external infrared (IR) light connected
to an output port.
- Live Stream Accessed – Trigger the rule when any stream is accessed and during edge storage playback.
This can for example be used to send notifications.
- Motion Detection – Trigger the rule when motion is detected. See Motion Detection, on page 28.
- Tampering – Trigger the rule when tampering is detected. See Camera Tampering, on page 28.
• 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.
- Temperature – Trigger the rule if the temperature falls outside or inside the operating range of the product. This
can for example be used to send maintenance notifications.
• 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 49.
- 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
and configuration.
- Virtual Inputs – can be used by a VMS (Video Management System) to trigger actions. Virtual inputs can, for
example, be connected to buttons in the VMS user interface.
• PTZ
- Moving – Trigger the rule when the camera view moves due to a PTZ operation. This can for example be used
as an additional condition to prevent an action rule triggered by motion detection to record video while the
camera view moves due to a PTZ operation.
- Preset Reached – Trigger the rule when the camera stops at a preset position. This can be for example be used
with the Send Images action to upload images from the preset position.
• Storage
- Disruption – Trigger the rule if storage problems are detected, for example if the storage device is unavailable,
removed, full, locked or if other read or write problems occur. This can for example be used to send maintenance
notifications.
• System
- System Ready – Trigger the rule when the product has been started and all services are running. This can for
example be used to send a notification when the product restarts.
