It is recommended to use push notifications (see Configuring the push notifications in AxxonNet client on Android OS). If for some reason it is not possible to use push notifications, you can receive notifications from the Server by periodically polling the Server directly.

This method of receiving notifications consumes more of the Android device battery and loads the network. You should use this method of receiving notifications only when absolutely necessary.

Configure receiving direct notifications as follows:

  1. In the Debug section, set the New event notifications checkbox (see Configuring debugging in AxxonNet client on Android OS). As a result, a  button will be displayed on the server list screen for configuring the background notification service.
  2. Click the  button. As a result, the New event notifications window will open.
  3. Select the Server to poll for new events (1).
  4. Select the time interval for polling the Server (2). The default is 5 seconds.
  5. If it is necessary for the background notification service to turn on automatically after the Android device restart, enable the START ON DEVICE BOOT option (3).
  6. Click the START button (4) to start the background notification service.

As a result, the notification from the background notification service will be displayed in the Android device notification panel. It will periodically poll the specified Server for new events.

If you tap on the received event notification, you will switch to viewing the camera archive at the time of the start of this alarm event.

To stop the background notification service, click Stop in the notification or go to the service settings and click the STOP button.
