What the driver does
A local Control4 camera driver for the Ajax Baseline video-surveillance IP cameras — it talks to the camera directly over ONVIF on your network.
Live video on every Navigator
Main and sub streams on touchscreens, the Control4 app and on-screen TV, through the Control4 camera proxy.
AI detections as Control4 events
Person, vehicle, pet, other, line-crossing and motion become Control4 events, variables and conditionals you can program against.
History & playback
Events land in the Control4 app's History / Timeline, each with a playback link that opens the camera's SD recording at that moment.
Picture control
Day / Night, Wide Dynamic Range and picture levels as programming commands — limited to what the camera supports.
Local & private
Talks to the camera directly over ONVIF on your LAN. No cloud, no Ajax account, nothing opened to the internet. The Ajax app keeps working alongside.
Set-and-forget
Auto-names the Control4 device from the camera; settings, counters and playback links survive reboots and driver updates.
- Person
- Vehicle
- Pet
- Line crossing
- Motion
- Other
AI detections surfaced as Control4 events & variables — automate scenes on person, vehicle, pet, line-crossing and motion.
Good to know — the one limitation
No snapshot still — a baseline-camera limit, not the driver. The baseline Ajax camera doesn't expose a snapshot (still-image) address — both ONVIF snapshot calls are refused, and it has only two video encoders — so there's no still image to pull. Control4 views that rely on a snapshot (the 2-column Multiview, History thumbnails) can't show this camera's picture; events show their type icon instead. Live view, detections and History playback all work normally. If you use a camera model that does offer a snapshot, the driver detects and uses it automatically.
Also not included: PTZ / pan-tilt-zoom, two-way talk, and Ajax alarm-system integration (nothing from the Ajax cloud). The driver doesn't record — the camera records to its own SD card and the driver links to it for playback.
