Limitations
All 1 For cameras that claim to support absolute and auto
focus but fail to provide minFocus and maxFocus (the
focus range), the NVR web page (Image Settings ->
Lens/Sensor) will display the Auto-Focus option but will
not display the focus range when Auto-Focus is disabled.
The AXIS 215 is an example of such a camera.
2 Older versions of the AXIS handler may have set the
“exposure”, “input gain”, “WDR” and other parameters on
some AXIS cameras to invalid values.
3 The camera’s web interface can be used to determine
whether the camera parameters have been set to invalid
values. Click “Setup->System Options->Advanced-
>Plain Config” and then select the appropriate parameter
group (image source, PTZ, etc). The invalid values will
be displayed but will be appended with “(not
supported?)”. The AXIS handler will also see the “(not
supported?)” in the parameter value strings it reads from
the camera. If any invalid values are found then use the
camera’s web interface to change invalid settings to valid
settings.
4 After an AXIS camera has been disconnected from the
network, it can take up to 22 seconds to raise an alarm
and attempt a reconnect after the dry contact connection
to the device is lost. However, the loss of the video
stream from that camera will be detected within a few
seconds and an alarm will be raised.
5 If the camera’s own web GUI is used to rotate an image
(instead of using the NVR web client “Image Settings”
screen) then the change does not take effect on existing
streams until an FPS or resolution change causes the
stream to be destroyed and recreated. It is
recommended to use the NVR web client “Image
Settings” screen to rotate the image because that will
cause the stream to be destroyed and recreated.
6 If the customer needs to change the active state of a dry
contact input then it should be changed before adding a
corresponding alarm sensor otherwise an alarm/alert
may be caused as a result of changing the active state.
7 H264 VBR bitrate settings are not supported or available
on the NVR. If the VBR bitrate settings have been
changed via the camera web interface, the settings will
not impact the NVR configured streams.
8 The AXIS API does not provide the same functionally
across different cameras. When lens WDR property set
to “1”, the AXIS camera’s wide dynamic range settings
will be set to “on” for some cameras and for others to
WDR”3”. Setting to “0” will turn all to “off”.
