Settings

Tool Description

Image

AXIS 2120.

Modem

Applications

Tool Description

Operation

Choose to run your AXIS 2120 in Sequential or Alarm Mode; determine when and how often images are
taken using the Scheduler; and define when the images are uploaded to an ISP, or target FTP/Web server.

Motion
Detection

Enable in-picture motion detection and trigger an immediate alarm whenever significant movement occurs in
the picture area. Create a single motion detection window for the whole image area, or create up to three
discrete drag-and-drop windows and restrict alarms to movement in specific areas. Each motion detection
window is assigned with a unique name, and a set of profile sliders that allow you to set individual alarm
thresholds for the Size, History, and Sensitivity parameters.

A Motion Indicator is also included to provide an immediate visual display of actual detected motion against
the defined alarm thresholds that are established for the highlighted window.

Layout

Determine the Layout for the Web page in which your images will appear. Customize the page to your own
design and include your own logos, links and title texts, and enable or disable specific function buttons.
