Open a browser with two windows side-by-side (Master live view / Slave live view). Click on a moving object in the master view. The slave camera should instantly snap to that location in its own live view. Advanced Use Cases: Where the Axis Link Shines Case Study 1: Perimeter Intrusion A corporate campus uses a thermal Axis camera (Master). The Live View Axis Link is bound to a high-speed optical zoom camera (Slave). When a human heat signature crosses a virtual line in the thermal feed, the link triggers the optical camera to physically rotate, zoom, and stream a full-color live view of the intruder to the security guard’s monitor. Case Study 2: Live Sports Production For a local soccer stadium, a fixed Axis camera provides the "game view." The Live View Axis Link is configured for a robotic PTZ camera behind the goal. When the ball enters the penalty box on the master view, the linked PTZ automatically zooms in on the striker, allowing the broadcast director to cut to a tight live shot without manual aiming. Case Study 3: Retail Loss Prevention A loss prevention officer watches a fisheye ceiling camera (Live View). A suspicious person is loitering near high-value electronics. The officer clicks on the person. The Axis Link immediately swings a discreet ceiling-mounted PTZ camera to capture a live view of the person's hands and face, proving intent. Troubleshooting Common Live View Axis Link Issues Even with Axis’ robust engineering, links can break. Here are the top three problems and fixes:
