4.4.2.8.2 Assigning Rules to counters
Counters count triggers generated by rule violations. For example, if it is required to count the number of
objects entering a zone, a zone must initially be configured to raise an alarm every time an object enters it. The
zone can then be assigned to a counter and the counter will count the objects according to the type of counting
required (increment, decrement, occupancy).
In this example the red zone is configured to trigger when object travelling in the north direction are detected.
The counter has been configured to increment the count whenever the zone (Zone 0) is triggered. Currently
two objects have been counted.
4.4.2.8.2.1 Incremental Counters
When a zone is assigned to an incremental counter, the count will increment by 1 every time the zone is
triggered.
4.4.2.8.2 Decremental Counters
When a zone is assigned to a decremental counter, the count will decrement by 1 every time the zone is
triggered.
4.4.2.8.3 Occupancy Counters
When a zone is assigned to an occupancy counter, the counter displays the number of active triggers in the
zone. E.g. if there are 2 objects in the zone that triggered the detection rule, then the count will display 2.
