AXIS Camera Station - User’s Interface

File menu

In the menu you will find many of the functions that are located in the control panel as well as all the

configuration windows for AXIS Camera Station.

Start/Stop Server

From the File menu you can start or stop AXIS Camera Station as a background service. This is the part of the

program that gets images from the cameras and stores them to hard disk. Images are available in the main

window at any time, but images are only saved to disk when the service is running.

Note: The service is automatically restarted after changes have been made.

View menu

Select the view according to the number of cameras you want to show. See Views, on page 18.

No Live Images- Closes the camera window views. Not displaying live images reduces the amount of processor

power required by the service, while not affecting recordings in any way. The amount of bandwidth required is

also less when live images are not displayed. Under Options > Views it is possible to set up the system so that it

always starts in this mode, see

Views, on page 18.

Show I/O status - This option opens a window that displays the I/O Status of all units. See I/O Status, on page 6.

Camera Sequences - Click to open the Camera Sequence window. See Camera Sequence, on page 7.

Event Log - The Event log tracks camera and server events. Use the drop-down lists to choose date, time, type

and source of the events to list. The generated list can be saved as a text file by clicking Save As.

Audit Log - This useful tool allows you to search User actions by time, user, type of happening or camera. The

generated list with the chosen criteria can be saved as a text file by clicking Save As.

Monitor menu

Select the number of cameras to view in a new window that occupies the entire screen and shows live images

from the cameras on the AXIS Camera Station server. Press Alt+F4 or Esc to exit the monitor mode.

Playback Menu

Open Events or 4-Camera Playback window. See Recorded Events, page 7.
