To use different camera settings for each sensor that aren't available when using
custom camera settings for all sensors on a multisensor camera, you can configure
sensor-specific camera settings.
What you should know
Using sensor-specific custom camera settings disassociates the sensors from a recording
profile.
Procedure
-
From the Devices page in the Configuration
task, select a multisensor camera.
-
Click the Sensors tab in the side pane, and select a
sensor.
-
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.
-
In the Video section, from the Recording
profile list, select Custom settings.
Note: 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.
-
Customize the camera sensor settings to suit your needs:
-
Select a Recording location relevant to your device
type:
- D2C cameras: Select Camera edge recording or
Cloud.
- Cloudlink cameras: Select Cloud or
Appliance.
Note: The Camera edge recording location is available only for
Axis direct-to-cloud cameras that support SD cards and have firmware version 11.11
or later.
-
Select a Video retention period.
Click Custom to specify a retention period. The maximum
video retention period is 1,096 days (3 years).
-
(Optional) Deactivate video thumbnails on the timeline.
-
(Optional) If image rotation is supported for your camera, set an Image
rotation.
-
(Optional) Deactivate camera analytics events.
-
(Optional) Deactivate camera metadata.
-
Click Save.
-
(Optional) Repeat this procedure for additional sensors as required.
