    An object identifier must contain: numbers, English characters and the "_" sign.

    In the Object Tree, added devices will be sorted by ID.


  • Select an archive and set the recording parameters (see Binding a camera Configuring recording to an archive).

    • No − camera is linked to the archive, no recording;

    • Always − continuous recording;

    • On motion (default setting) − a VMD tool and an automatic rule for writing to the specified archive are automatically created for the camera you are adding. By default, recording stops when an event detection is finished.;

    • On motion/Embedded detection an embedded VMD tool and an automatic rule for writing to the specified archive are automatically created for the camera you are adding. By default, recording stops when an event detection is finished.

      When creating a new device, the pre-alarm time interval for video footage recording is automatically set to 3 seconds (see Binding a camera Configuring recording to an archive).


    • Camera coordinates (latitude, longitude, azimuth) which are used when the camera is added to the geo map (see Adding video cameras).

In addition, three modes are available for adding a device to a configuration. These are described in the following table.

Device addition mode

Description
1Add device with default settingsThe IP device is added to the configuration with the default settings (the default settings are determined by Axxon One itself). Adding a device in this mode will change the current settings of the device.
2

Add device with current settings

The IP device is added to the configuration with the current settings, as specified in the web interface.
3Add device with template settings

The IP device is added to the configuration with the settings that have been previously specified for a device of the same model in the configuration. Select a device of the same model (the "template device") in the list.

Only devices of the same model are shown in the list of search results for choosing the template device.

The following settings will be copied from the template device to the new, similar device: firmware, video stream settings, buffering settings, Other settings (see The Video Camera Object), and Other settings for Microphone and Speaker objects, if these are configured for the template device.

This mode is best when multiple cameras of the same model are in use at a site. If this is the case, we advise to:

Add and configure one device.

Add the remaining devices, copying settings from the "template device" as described previously.

...

During a single configuration change, you can add a single device or all devices listed in the search results (other than devices for which compatibility is not guaranteed). To add one device, click the Image Removed Image Added button. To add all devices, click the Add all button.

If you set no individual access parameters while adding hardware, a dialog window appears for setting unified access parameters.

 Remember that if you add all IP devices at the same time, the same mode and settings will be applied to all of them.

If an IP device is not shown in the search results (because it is located on another subnet or contact has been temporarily lost), you can add it manually. To do so, in the neutral-colored area above the search results, select the type of IP device that you are adding (with or without edge storage), specify an IP address and port, and select the manufacturer and model.

Then add the device to the configuration  by following the steps described previously.
