Configuring custom recording settings for individual camera sensors

2026-07-09Last updated

To apply different settings to each sensor on a multisensor camera, configure sensor-specific camera settings.

What you should know

  • Applying custom settings to camera sensors disassociates them from their assigned recording profile.
  • Cameras configured using the Custom settings option aren’t displayed in the Recording profiles list because the custom settings only apply to the selected camera.
  • You can only configure edge recording for sensors on Axis direct-to-cloud cameras that support SD cards and have firmware version 11.11 or later.

Procedure

  1. From the Devices page in the Configuration task, select a multisensor camera.
  2. Click the Sensors tab in the side pane, and select a sensor.
  3. Click the Settings tab in the side pane.
    The sensor Settings tab on a multisensor camera is different from the camera Settings tab because it only displays and applies settings to the selected sensor.
  4. In the Video section, from the Recording profile list, select Custom settings.
  5. Customize the camera sensor settings as required.
  6. Click Save.
The custom setting is applied to the camera sensor and no longer inherits recording profile settings.

After you finish

Repeat this procedure for additional sensors as required.
