Speed Monitor

Axis Speed Monitor User manual

  • Hello! I'm your assistant, I've analyzed the AXIS Speed Monitor user manual. This document covers setup and configuration of the Speed Monitor application on AXIS cameras and radar units, including radar calibration, zone settings, event rules and data export. I'm here to answer any questions about radar setup, speed monitoring features or statistical analysis.
  • What is the purpose of the AXIS Speed Monitor application?
    Can the application be installed on standalone radar?
    What are the two main monitoring profiles available?
    What is required to log statistics?
    What file format is used to export statistics?
