The Event Overview dialog provides a summary of the events triggered by the camera. This dialog allows activating, deactivating, renaming, and deleting existing events. It provides a portal to the detailed configuration of events.
An event is triggered by the camera whenever a certain condition is met. These conditions can be of very different nature, e.g. an environment measurement surpassing a certain threshold, a key being pressed, a certain point in time, the end of an action, etc. These events can then be used to execute actions or control image recording.
There are different groups of these events, named in the first column. For a complete list of possible events by group, refer to the section List of Events.
For each group a list of currently defined events by name is displayed. If no events are defined, an explanation appears.
For each event, the third column shows the configured sensor type. If this type is not currently available (usually because of missing expansion hardware), a note appears instead.
A check box displays the activation status of the event. An inactive event never triggers. You can still select it wherever events can be selected, but it is displayed in grey, not processed, and not displayed in the status row in the live image.
Each available group has an Edit button in the rightmost column, which leads to the respective detailed configuration dialog. That dialog allows editing or deleting all events of this group as well as creating them.
In order to modify one or more events, you can change them as described in the following. Next, click on the Set button at the bottom of the dialog to store the new settings. These settings can also be changed in the respective detailed configuration dialogs.
A-Za-z0-9-._
). Names have to be unique among all events of one group.Note: Please note that changes to the configuration are only stored temporarily in the camera's active configuration. In order to store the changes permanently, you should always store the settings in the camera's permanent memory (see Storing the Configuration).
For each group a list of currently defined events by name is displayed. If no events are defined, an explanation appears. You can rename or delete existing events and change their activation status. An inactive event can not be used. You can still select it wherever events can be selected, but it is displayed in grey and not processed. Deleted events vanish completely and can not be restored.
Check the Delete box of the event(s) you would like to delete and click on Set at the bottom of the dialog.
Warning: When clicking on the Set button, the camera will immediately delete all events with a checked Delete box from the camera's active configuration. In order to store the configuration permanently, click on the Close button at the bottom of the dialog (see Storing the Configuration).
Click on the Restore button at the bottom of the dialog load the action groups that are stored in the camera's permanent memory.
Note: Depending on the camera model and expansion hardware, some of the listed event sensor types may not be available. Not available sensor types are not displayed in the dialogs. If there are no sensor types available in a given group, this group will be hidden completely.
Click on the group names to access the respective help pages providing more in-depth explanations of the events.
Environment Events | Shock Detector | Can trigger events if the camera is subjected to shocks (e.g. by vandalism). |
Brightness | Can trigger events based on the illumination measured in the camera images. | |
Microphone | Can trigger events based on the volume of the microphone recordings. | |
PIR | Passive infrared detector, can trigger events if it detects movements. | |
Temperature | Can trigger events based on the measured temperature. | |
GPS Position | Can trigger events if the camera leaves the specified position. | |
GPS Velocity | Can trigger events if the camera moves at speeds higher of lower than the specified speed. | |
Image Analysis Events | Video Motion Detection | Can trigger events based on simple image-based motion detection. |
MxActivitySensor | Can trigger events based on image-based detection of continuous movements. | |
Internal Events | Action Group Termination | Can trigger events whenever a certain action group terminates either successfully or with an error. |
Signal States | Can trigger events based on status changes of the custom signals. | |
Bus | Can trigger events based on internal communication of camera components. | |
Recording | Can trigger events based on state changes of the recording module (begin, end, etc.). | |
Meta Events | Event Counter | Can trigger events based on quantitative analysis of other events. |
Logical AND Event | Can trigger events if several other events happen at the same time. | |
Event Logic | Can trigger events based on the order of occurrence of other events. | |
Message Events | IP Messages | Can trigger events based on simple TCP (network) messages received by the camera. |
Serial | Can trigger events based on messages received by the camera via the serial interface (RS-232/USB). | |
Signal Events | User Click | Can trigger events when the User Click softbutton is pressed. |
Signal Input | Can trigger events based on signal input states or state changes. This group also contains the Key and IP Remote Control events. | |
Signal output | Can trigger events based on signal output states or state changes. | |
Time Events | Periodic Event | Can trigger events regularly at the specified interval. |
Time Task Event | Can trigger events at fixed points in time. | |
Random Event | Can trigger events randomly based on a fixed expected frequency. |
Klicken Sie auf Setzen, um die Einstellungen zu aktivieren und bis zum nächsten Neustart der Kamera zu sichern.
Klicken Sie auf Voreinstellung, um diesen Dialog auf die werkseitigen Voreinstellungen zurückzusetzen (dieser Button wird nicht in allen Dialogen angezeigt).
Klicken Sie auf Zurückholen, um alle Änderungen seit dem letzten permanenten Speichern der Konfiguration zu verwerfen.
Beenden Sie den Dialog durch Klick auf Schließen. Hierbei wird geprüft, ob Änderungen der Gesamtkonfiguration vorliegen. Ist dies der Fall, werden Sie gefragt, ob die Gesamtkonfiguration dauerhaft gesichert werden soll.
