Important!
- When adding or removing a camera on this page, the AXIS 262 stops recording from all cameras, for a maximum of 10 minutes.
- When a camera is added it may take up to 1 minute for the live stream to be displayed.
- When a camera is removed, the recorded data from that camera will also be deleted. To save recorded data, download it to a PC before removing the camera. The download is performed from the Main View page.
- The AXIS 262 itself can be used as an NTP server by the video sources that connect to it. This allows all video sources and recordings to be synchonized against the same time source. Nothing needs to be configured for this - simply provide the IP address of the AXIS 262 as the address of the NTP server.

Alarm Recording
|
Alarm Recording: Set this radio button to ON to enable alarm recording in the AXIS 262. The default setting is OFF.
Important!
If alarm recording is ON and is then set to OFF, the recorded data from the alarm recording mode for that camera will be deleted. To save the data, download it first to your PC, from the Main View page.
Triggered by: This determines how the alarm is received. The available options are:
- Camera - the camera sends a notification that is received as an alarm. The camera for sending alarms must have the necessary functionality.
- Local input port - a signal on the input port on the AXIS 262 acts as the trigger. The local input port number corresponds to the camera number. Note that only cameras 1-4 can be connected to the local input ports 1-4.
When using a camera or video server as a trigger, that device must be set up to send alarms. More...
