Figure 35. New Event Source Page

An event is a preprogrammed camera function that is automatically activated by an event source. The camera supports three types of event sources:

Alarm Source: The camera supports one alarm source. The sources are the camera inputs for external signaling devices, such as door contacts or motion detectors.

System Source: A system source is activated when the camera restarts.

Timer Source: A timer source is a user-defined event. The user can program the timer to activate an event after a specified amount of time. For example, the timer can be activated every 60 seconds to save an image to a mini SD card.
