Specifying Generic Events
What is a generic event?
This is a function that uses TCP or UDP protocol communication as
an input event for this unit.
When character strings in the communication data received by the
unit matches the predetermined conditions, the corresponding
generic event is triggered. To define a generic event, you need to
configure the incoming data settings at this unit as well as the
outgoing data settings at the camera (or network device to be
used).
The procedures for configuring the incoming data settings at this
unit are described below.

to receive data when detecting the event:
Receives and analyzes data that uses either
the TCP or UDP protocol.
Receives and analyzes only data that uses
the TCP protocol.
Receives and analyzes only data that uses
the UDP protocol.
For specifying the rules when analyzing the
received data.
In order for an event to be triggered, the
received data must totally coincide with the
message specified in the [Event message
include] field of the [Event rules string]
section
C
, and must not contain any other
messages.
In order for an event to be triggered, the
received data must contain the message
specified in the [Event message include] field
of the [Event rules string] section
C
. Other
messages may be included in the data.
The same data may be used by different
events. Assigns the order of priority to each
event for determining the event to trigger
when the received data matches the criteria
of multiple events. Set the priority level to a
value between
(lowest priority) and
(highest priority).
