Configuring the MVG 400 119
Field Description
Attach cameras Select the cameras to which the device should be linked, if
desired. Selecting a camera has the following effects:
• If you receive e-mail notifications of events that were
triggered by this device, and the notifications contain
images, an e-mail with an image will be sent for each of
the selected cameras.
• If you activate AVV for the device, video of events from
each of the selected cameras is uploaded to the AVV
server.
Note: If the camera records by event, make sure to
define the device as one of the recorder triggers in the
camera configuration. Otherwise, the MVG 400 may not
record the event, and therefore it will not be possible to
upload it to the AVV server. For information about
defining recorder triggers, see
Configuring Video
Recording
, page 111.
• Events from the device will appear in the client interface
under the selected camera as well as under the device.
This makes it possible to play back video of the event by
dragging and dropping it into a camera pane in the
MultiClient.
4. Under Notifications, under When Sensor On or On Activator Activated, specify the
actions that should be performed when the device triggers an event, as follows:
Field Description
AVV Select this option to have the MVG 400 send video of the event to
an AVV server for downloading. The video is downloaded to the
site defined in the
AVV screen, in the format defined there (see
Automatically Uploading Video to an AVV Server , page 87) , and
e-mail notifications are sent to all e-mail recipients (see
SMS and
E-mail Notifications
, page 81).
Note: Two e-mail notifications are sent – one when the event is
first detected, and the other when uploading of the video to the
AVV server is completed. Thus, the video clip may not be
available yet when you receive the first e-mail notification.
Note: This feature only works if the device is attached to a
camera and recording (either event-triggered or continuous) is
activated for the camera (see
Video Recording Settings ,
page 110).
Note: This option only appears if AVV is activated for the
MVG 400 (see
Automatically Uploading Video to an AVV Server ,
