AXIS Q1910/-E/AXIS Q1921/-E - Events
Events
An event or Event Type triggers actions when activated. An event type is a set of parameters that defines the actions. A
common event type is an alarm that causes the camera to upload images. Many event types require an Event Server, to
receive uploaded images.
This section describes how to conf
igure the camera to perform certain actions when events occur.
Definitions
Event Servers
Event Servers are used to receive uploaded image files and/or notification messages. To set up Event Server connections in
your camera, go to Setup > Events > Event Servers and enter the required information for the required server type.
For details on each setting, see the online help available from each web page.
When the setup is complete, the connection can be tested by clicking the Te
st button (the connection test takes
approximately 10 seconds).
Event Types
An Event Type describes how and when the camera is to perform certain actions.
Example: If a person or object
passes in front of the camera and an
ev
ent has been configured to detect
and respond to motion, the camera
can record and save images to an FTP
server, and can send a notification
e-mail to an e-mail address. Images
can be sent as e-mail attachments.
