Action
Description
an event or after a period of time.
Activate archiving on
<archives>
Starts archiving on one or more archives. When you select this type of action,
Manage
Rule
will prompt you to select required archives.
No compulsory stop action:
This type of action does not require a stop action;
although it will be possible to specify optional stop actions to be performed on either
an event or after a period of time.
On <site> trigger
<user-defined event>
Relevant mostly within OnSSI Federated Architecture (see "OnSSI Federated
Architecture Overview" on page 173), but can also be used in a single server setup.
Used for triggering a user defined event on a site - normally a remote site within a
federated hierarchy.
No compulsory stop action:
This type of action does not require a stop action;
although it will be possible to specify optional stop actions to be performed on either
an event or after a period of time.
Create Typical Rules
The following is a brief introduction to examples of typical rules, what you can do with them and how they can be
constructed.
Basic Rules
Use Higher Live Frame Rate on Motion:
Ensures that when motion is detected on a specific camera, RC-E will
use a higher than default live frame rate for the camera, and return to using the camera's default live frame rate
when motion is no longer detected. The effect is higher quality live video whenever there is motion. When the
specified part of the day ends, the PTZ camera will stop patrolling.
PTZ-Related Rules
Use Specific PTZ Patrolling Profile During Specific Part of Day:
Ensures that during a specific part of the day,
a PTZ (Pan/Tilt/Zoom) camera will patrol according to a specific patrolling profile (i.e. the exact definition of how
patrolling should be carried out, including the sequence for moving between preset positions, timing settings,
etc.). When the specified part of the day ends, the PTZ camera will stop patrolling.
Use Different PTZ Patrolling Profiles for Day/Night:
Ensures that during daytime, a PTZ camera will patrol
according to a specific patrolling profile. And during nights, according to another patrolling profile.
Pause PTZ Patrolling and Go to PTZ Preset on Input:
Ensures that a specific external input is activated, a PTZ
camera will pause its patrolling, move to a specific preset position, and remain at the preset position for a specific
period of time, after which it will resume patrolling.
Use Higher Live Frame Rate on Motion
In this example, the camera has a default live frame rate of 10 frames per second (FPS), and the rule will increase the
live frame rate to 25 FPS when applied. The effect will be a higher quality live video for as long as motion is detected
on the camera.
Note that recording frame rate (the frame rate with which video sequences will be saved) is specified separately, and
will not be affected by this rule.
