Events

The following example describes how to set up an action rule to record video to a network share if there is movement in the camera’s field of view.

Set up motion detection and add a network share:

1.Go to Detectors > Motion Detection and configure a motion detection window. See page 32

2.Go to System Options > Storage and set up the network share. See page 55.

Set up the action rule:

1.Go to Events > Action Rules and click Add.

2.Select Enable rule and enter a descriptive name for the rule.

3.Select Detectors from the Trigger drop-down list.

4.Select Motion Detection from the drop-down list. Select the motion detection window to use.

5.Optionally, select a Schedule and Additional conditions. See below.

6.Under Actions, select Record Video from the Type drop-down list.

7.Select a Stream profile and configure the Duration settings as described below.

8.Select Network Share from the Storage drop-down list.

To use more than one trigger for the action rule, select Additional conditions and click Add to add additional triggers. When using additional conditions, all conditions must be met to trigger the action.

To prevent an action from being triggered repeatedly, a Wait at least time can be set. Enter the time in hours, minutes and seconds, during which the trigger should be ignored before the action rule can be activated again.

The recording Duration of some actions can be set to include time immediately before and after the event. Select Pre-trigger time and/or Post-trigger time and enter the number of seconds. When While the rule is active is enabled and the action is triggered again during the post-trigger time, the recording time will be extended with another post-trigger time period.
