Chapter 3 Configuring and Managing the IP Camera

Feature Setup Windows

Event Notification Window

The Event Notification window provides options for how the IP camera handles events. An event is any of the following:

A change of state from low to high or from high to low on an input port of the IP camera. For related information about input ports, see the “IO Ports Settings Window” section on page 3-9.

Motion that the IP camera detects. For related information about motion detection, see the “Motion detection controls” rows in Table 4-1.

Loss of video signal.

When an event occurs, it triggers the IP camera to take certain configured actions:

HTTP notification—IP camera sends notification to a remote system via HTTP. This information includes the following:

Device ID—ID of the IP camera

Device name—Name of the IP camera

IP address—IP address of the IP camera

MAC address—MAC address of the IP camera

Channel ID—Channel identification number (1 for primary stream or 2 for secondary stream)

Channel name—Name that is configured for the channel

Date and time—Date and time that the event occurred

Active post Count—Sequence number of the notification for this event

Event type—Type of event

Event state—Indicates whether the event is active or inactive at the time that the event was detected for this notification

Event description—Description of the event.

Input port ID—If the event was triggered by an input port state change, port ID of the port

Region index—If the event was triggered by motion detection, identification number of the region in which the IP camera detected motion

Sensitivity level—If the event was triggered by motion detection, sensitivity that is configured for the region in which motion was detected

Detection threshold—If the event was triggered by motion detection, threshold that is configured for the region in which motion was detected

Email notification—An event can cause the IP camera to send a notification e-mail message to designated recipients. The message can include a video clip or a snapshot of the activity that triggered the event.

This message includes the same information that is provided with HTTP notification.

FTP notification—An event can cause the IP camera to upload a video clip or a snapshot of the activity that triggered the event to an FTP server.

Output port state change—Changes the state of an IP camera output port from low to high or from high to low.

Syslog server message—Sends a notification message to the designated Syslog server.

The Event Notification window also allows you to designate schedules. If an event takes place within a designated schedule, the IP camera takes the actions that you configure.
