User-defined CGI links can be used to issue advanced commands via the Axis HTTP API.
For more information, see the Developer pages at www.axis.com/developer
Action Buttons
The manual trigger buttons can be used to manually trigger and stop an event from the
Live View page. See Event Configuration, on page 27.
Enabling the display of the Snapshot button
allows users to save a snapshot from the
video stream by clicking this button. This button is mainly intended for use with browsers
other than Internet Explorer for Windows, or when otherwise not using ActiveX to view
the video stream. The ActiveX viewing component (AXIS Media Control) for Internet
Explorer provides its own snapshot button.
Output Buttons
These buttons can then be used to manually activate the output from the Live View page,
e.g. to switch a light on and off. There are 2 options for how the output is activated:
• The Pulse button activates the outp
ut for a defined period
• Active/Inactive displays 2 buttons, one for each action (on/off)
Default Video Format
Select default video format from the drop-down list. Checking the box for Show video
format selection displays a drop-down list on the Live View page allowing you to
temporarily change the format.
Default Viewer
When using
Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE)
for Windows, select your preferred method of
viewing moving images. The options are:
• AMC(A
ctiveX)- This is the best choice for fast image updating in Internet
Explorer, but might not be possible on computers that have restriction on the
installation of additional software.
• QuickTime - For us
e with MPEG-4 only, select this to use the QuickTIme plug-in
for Microsoft Internet Explorer.
• Ja
va applet - This alternative uses a Java applet to update the images in the
browser.
• Still Image - Di
splays still images only. Hit the Refresh button in your browser to
view a new image.
When using any other browser than Internet Explorer for Windows, select the
appropriate
method from the drop-down list for viewing images. The available options are similar to
Internet Explorer
except for Server Push. With this method, the camera maintains and
controls an open HTTP connection to the browser and sends data as and when required for
as long as required. Please see the online help for more information.
