AXIS 231D+/232D+ - Event Configuration
Event Configuration
This section describes how to configure the AXIS 231D+/232D+ for event handling.
Pre-defined parameters, known as
an Event or Event Type can trigger certain actions in the
camera. A common event type is an alarm that prompts the camera to upload images.
Many event types use an Event Server, to receive uploaded images.
An event that is triggered by a signal, such as
a door switch, motion detection, or system
event, is called a triggered event, see page 19.
A scheduled event runs at pre-programmed times.
An Action refers to what happens
when the event occurs.
Event Servers
Event Servers can be used for receiving uploaded image files and/or notification messages.
To set up Event server connections in your AXIS 231D+/232D+, go to Setup > Event
Configuration > Event Servers and enter the required information according to the
selected server type.
For details on each setting, refer
to the online help files available from each web page.
When the setup is complete, the connection can be tested by clicking the Test button (the
conn
ection test will take approximately 10 seconds).
