Axis Speed Monitor User manual

Brand: Axis

Model: Speed Monitor

Type: User manual

Axis Speed Monitor helps you visualize vehicle speed in a radar detection zone and logs radar tracks on your SD card for statistical processing. It’s ideal for traffic monitoring, speed enforcement, and safety applications. It can be used as a standalone radar installation or integrated with an Axis camera for live view overlay. You can create include and exclude zones to define areas for detection and set speed ranges to trigger specific actions or alarms. The radar offers two monitoring profiles: Area monitoring for objects up to 34 mph and Road monitoring for vehicles up to 65 mph.
