The Axis product can be congured to perform actions when different events occur, for example, start a recording when motion is
detected. The set of conditions that denes 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 36.
Detectors
- Live Stream Accessed – Trigger the rule when any stream is accessed and during edge storage playback.
This can for example be used to send notications.
- Motion Detection – Trigger the rule when motion is detected. See Motion Detection, on page 34.
- Shock Detected – Trigger the rule when the Axis product detects it has been tilted or hit. See Shock Detection,
on page 34.
Hardware
- Heater Trigger the rule if the heater is malfunctioning. This can for example be used to send maintenance
notications.
- 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 notications.
Input Signal
- Digital Input Port – Trigger the rule when an I/O port receives a signal from a connected device. SeeI/O Ports,
