Event Management
When something happens on camera site, such as someone walks by, the door opens or a
fire breaks out – these are all Events. The event which occurs in the environment and was
pre-programmed in the camera serves as Triggers. Triggers cause the device to react with
Responses. The link between trigger and response is governed by Event Rules. Each event
rule detects one specific trigger and may initiate multiple responses. An example rule would
be for ENR to send an email to alert the manager (Response 1) and trigger alarm
(Response 2) when motion on camera site is triggered (Trigger) during the event handing
active period (Schedule).
Each device can be involved in several event rules. As different camera models possess
various capabilities, the supported response types would vary. For example, a PTZ camera
can execute a go-to preset point response, while this option is available for other models
without this feature.
Event-Handling Schedule
Event rules become active or inactive based upon a weekly Schedule, to enable
event-handling service, you will have to make sure the event-handing schedule of certain
device is well configured. By default, the event-handling schedule of each camera is enabled
for 24 hours once it is added to ENR system.
To configure the event schedule, you may right-click on Live View screen to bring up Live
View menu  click “Setup Menu”  click “Schedule Settings”, select the camera, and drag
on 24-hour table.
