AXIS 210/211 - Event Configuration

Event Configuration

An event in the AXIS 210/211 is when an Event Type is activated and causes certain

actions to be performed. The event type is the set of parameters (or conditions) that

specifies how and when which actions will be performed. A common event type is when

the camera uploads images when an alarm occurs. Many event types use an Event Server,

to e.g. upload images to.

This section describes how to set up event servers and event types, i.e. how to configure

the AXIS 210/211 to perform certain actions when events (e.g. alarms) occur.

Definitions

Event Servers

Event Servers are used to receive e.g. uploaded image files and/or notification messages.

To set up Event server connections in your AXIS 210/211, go to Setup > Event

Configuration > Event Servers and enter the required information for the required server

type.
