AXIS 241QA/AXIS 241SA - Event configuration
Pre-trigger and post-trigger buffers
This function is useful when checking to see what happened immediately before and after
a trigger, e.g. two minutes before and after a door was opened. Check the Upload images
option under Event Types > Add Triggered... > When triggered... to see available options.
Include pre-trigger buffer
- images stored internally in the server from the time
immediately preceding the trigger. Check the box to enable the pre-trigger buffer, enter the
desired length of time, and specify the required image frequency.
Include post-trigger buffer -
contains images from the time immediately after the trigger.
Configure as for pre-trigger.
Note:
If the pre- or post-buffer is too large for the Axis video server's internal memory, the frame rate is reduced
and individual images may be missing. If this occurs, an entry will be created in the unit's log file.
Continue image upload (unbuffered) - enables the upload of images for a fixed length of
time. Specify the time for the uploaded recording in seconds, minutes or hours, or for as
long as the trigger is active. Finally, set the desired image frequency to the maximum (the
maximum possible) or to a specified frame rate. The frame rate would be the best possible,
but might not be as high as specified, especially if uploading via a slow connection.
Scheduled event
A Scheduled event can be activated at
pre-set times, in a repeating pattern on selected
weekdays.
