Automatic and Manual Activation of Output
Output can be activated automatically or manually:
Automatic Activation of Output
With the Management Client's rules (see "Manage Rules" on page 133) feature, you are able to create rules that
automatically activate or deactivate output, and rules that trigger actions when the state of an output is changed.
For example, you may create a rule specifying that a siren should sound if motion is detected on a particular
camera, or you may create a rule specifying that a camera should start recording if a siren sounds. See Define
Input- and Output-Related Rules (on page 94) for more information.
Manual Activation of Output
Output may be activated manually from the Management Client and the
Ocularis Client:
1. In the Site Navigation pane (see "Panes Overview" on page 36), expand
Devices
and select
Outputs
.
2. In the Overview pane (see "Panes Overview" on page 36), expand the required outputs folder and select the
required output.
Tip:
You may select a group of outputs, for example
