Events and Actions

This system can perform particular actions such as recording start and camera direction change, triggered by reception of particular signals from cameras. A triggering input is called an “event” and a behavior triggered by the event is called an “action.”

With event and action settings, a certain action can be activated when a certain event occurs by enabling the event preset in a connected device in settings of this unit and associating it with the action.
