30AXIS 231D+/232D+ - Event Configuration

Event Types

An Event Type is a set of parameters describing how and when the Network Dome Camera is to perform certain actions.

Example: If a door is opened, and the net- work camera has been configured to act on this, it can record and save video images to an FTP server or send a notification email to a pre-con- figured email address with a pre-configured message. Video images can be sent as an attachment with the email.

Triggered Event

A Triggered event can be activated from the following examples:

•a switch (doorbell) connected to an input port on the Network Dome Camera

•PTZ preset position

•built-in motion detection

•a manually activated action from a manual trigger button in the web interface

•on restart (reboot) after power loss

How to set up a triggered event

This example describes how to set the Network Dome Camera to upload images when the main door is opened:

1.Click Add triggered on the Event types page.

2.Enter a descriptive name for the event, such as, Main door.

3.Set the priority - High, Normal or Low (see online help files).

4.Set the Respond to Trigger... parameters when the event is to be active, such as, only after office hours.

5.Select the trigger alternative from the Triggered by... drop-down list, such as an Input port with a connected sensor if the door is opened.

6.Set the When Triggered... parameters. This indicates what the Network Dome Camera is to do if the main door is opened, for example, upload images to an FTP server.

7.Click OK to save the Event in the Event Types list.

Please use the online help files for descriptions of each available option.
