from the Recordings workspace.
The recording is saved to the disk specied under Conguration > Recording Storage.

in form of a le with alarm procedures can be included with the alarm.

bring the clients to the front of other applications.
Set Output
The output action sets the state of an output port. This is used to control the device connected to the output
port, for example to switch on a light or lock a door.
Before using the output action, an output port must be added to AXIS Camera Station. Go to Conguration >
I/O Settings. See Add Inputs and Outputs on page 46.

Notication
The HTTP notication action sends an HTTP request to a camera, a door controller or an external web server.
HTTP notications can for example be used to enable or disable a feature in the camera, or to open, close, lock
or unlock a door connected to a door controller.
Create a Rule
The example described in this chapter demonstrates how to use Event Conguration to create a rule that starts a recording,
raises an alarm and sends an e-mail each time a door is opened. The door switch is connected to an input port of the camera
monitoring the door.
Start by creating a new rule:
1. Open the Conguration menu and select Event Conguration.
2. Click New to open the New Rule dialog.
