Description
strongly recommended to reconsider this lowest possible priority for all affected rules.
This type of action requires that the devices to which the action will be linked are PTZ
(Pan/Tilt/Zoom) devices, and that default preset positions have been defined for those
devices. You define default preset positions for a PTZ camera on the
Presets
tab (see
"PTZ Presets Tab (Camera Properties)" on page 83).

although it will be possible to specify optional stop actions to be performed on either
an event or after a period of time.

and on which devices.
This type of action requires that the devices to which the action will be linked each
have at least one external output unit connected to an output port.

<profile>
Sends a notification, using a particular notification profile. When selecting this type of
action,
Manage Rule
will prompt you to select a notification profile, and which devices
to include pre-alarm images from. Only one notification profile can be selected; it is not
possible to select several notification profiles.
Tip:
Even though you are only able to select a single notification profile, bear in mind
that a single notification profile may contain several recipients.
This type of action requires that at least one notification profile (see "Manage
Notification Profiles" on page 141) has been set up. Pre-alarm images will only be
included if e-mail notification is used and the
Include images
option has been enabled
for the notification profile in question.
IMPORTANT:
Pre-alarm images functionality cannot coexist with edge recording (see
"Record Tab Overview" on page 103). So if a camera is setup to export pre-alarm
images it is not possible to enable edge recording on that camera, and vice versa.
