-Tampering – Trigger the rule when tampering is detected. See Camera Tampering on page 31.

Hardware

-Video Signal – Trigger the rule if video signal is lost.

-Network – Trigger the rule if network connection is lost or restored. This can for example be used to start recording to the SD card.

Input Signal

-Digital Input Port – Trigger the rule when an I/O port receives a signal from a connected device. See I/O Ports on page 53.

-Manual Trigger – Trigger the rule using the Manual Trigger button in the Live View page. See Controls on the Live View Page on page 11 . This can for example be used to validate actions during product installation and configuration.

-Virtual Inputs – can be used by a VMS (Video Management System) to trigger actions. Virtual inputs can, for example, be connected to buttons in the VMS user interface.

PTZ

-Error – Trigger the rule if the PTZ functionality is not working correctly. This can for example be used to send maintenance notifications.

-Ready – Trigger the rule when the PTZ functionality is ready to be used. This can for example be used to steer the camera to a specific preset position when the product is started.

Storage

-Disruption – Trigger the rule if storage problems are detected, for example if the storage device is unavailable, removed, full, locked or if other read or write problems occur. This can for example be used to send maintenance notifications.

System

-System Ready – Trigger the rule when the product has been started and all services are running. This can for example be used to send a notification when the product restarts.

Time

-Recurrence – Trigger the rule periodically. See Set Up Recurrences on page 40. This can for example be used to upload an image every 5 minutes.

-Use Schedule – Trigger the rule according to the selected schedule. See Create Schedules on page 39.
