External Video
An external video source is a source originating from some other Axis device on the network. The images
from these sources can be displayed just as if they were produced by the AXIS 209MFD.
The External Video Source List shows all of the external video sources currently configured. The
information displayed is the source’s name and the path to the video stream. Up to 20 external video
sources can be configured.
Working with External Video Sources:
1. To add a new video source, click the
Add
button. This opens the
External Video Source Setup
dialog; Here you can make all the necessary settings.
2. To modify an existing video source, select it and click the
Modify
button.
3. To delete an external video source, select it and click the
Remove
button.
Sequence Mode
Sequence Mode is a configuration that automatically displays the view from multiple, previously defined
preset positions (see the online help
) and external video sources (see above).
This is useful for security personnel viewing a surveillance system that constantly rotates, in the listed order
or at random, through the selected preset positions and video sources.
To set up a sequence mode, simply select the desired preset positions and/or video sources and enter the
number of seconds or minutes to display each one for. Each position or video source can be displayed for
up to 59 minutes.
