■ Event name: Enter a name for the event setting.
■ Enable this event: Select this checkbox to enable the event setting.
■ Priority: Select the relative importance of this event (High, Normal, or Low). Events with a higher
priority setting will be executed rst.
■ Detect next event after
seconds: Enter the duration in seconds to pause motion detection after a
motion is detected. This prevents too many events to be triggered within a short time.
Follow the steps 1~3 to arrange the three elements -- Schedule, Trigger, and Action to set an event. A
total of 3 event settings can be congured.
1. Schedule
Specify the period for the event. Please select the days of the week and the time in a day (in 24-hr time
format) to specify when will the event-triggering conditions take effect.
2. Trigger
This is the cause or stimulus which denes what will trigger the event. The trigger source can be cong-
ured to use the Network Camera’s built-in motion detection mechanism or external digital inputs.
There are several choices of trigger sources as shown below.
Select each item to display its related
options.
■ Video motion detection
This option makes use of the built-in motion detection mechanism as a trigger source. To enable this
function, you need to congure a Motion Detection Window rst. For more information, please refer to
Motion Detection on page 115 for details.
■ Periodically
This option allows the Network Camera to trigger periodically for every other dened minute. Up to 999
minutes are allowed.
■ System boot
This option triggers the Network Camera when the power to the Network Camera is disconnected.
■ Recording notify
This option allows the Network Camera to trigger when the recording disk is full or when recording
starts to overwrite older data.
■ Audio detection
A preset threshold can be congured with an external microphone as the trigger to system event. The
triggering condition can be an input exceeding or falling below a threshold. Audio detection can take
place as a complement to motion detection or as a method to detect activities not covered by the
camera's view.
