Temperature Detection
Temperature detection is used to generate an alarm whenever the temperature changes according to defined conditions:
•
The temperature rises above a specified temperature
•
The temperature falls below a specified temperature
•
The temperature increases above a specified rate
Temperature detection is set by configuring up to six temperature detection zones in the camera view. Once temperature detection
zones are configured, the Axis product can be configured to perform actions when temperature changes are detected. Possible actions
include display of overlay text and start recording. For more information, see
How to set up action rules on page 34
.
Note
To detect temperatures above 150 °C (302 °F), the area above this temperature area must be larger than 3% of the exposure
zone. To resize the exposure zone, see
About exposure settings on page 18
Set up Temperature Detection Zones
To set up a temperature detection zone with detection conditions that apply for action rules, follow these instructions:
Basic Settings
