Event Management
When something happens on camera site, such as someone walks by, the door opens or a
fire breaks out
– these are all
Events
. The event which occurs in the environment and was
pre-programmed in the camera serves as
Triggers
. Triggers cause the device to react with
Responses
. The link between trigger and response is governed by
Event Rules
. Each event
rule detects one specific trigger and may initiate multiple responses. An example rule would
be for ENR to send an email to alert the manager (
Response 1
) and trigger the alarm
(
Response 2
) when motion on camera site is detected (
Trigger
) during the event handing
active period (
Schedule
).
Each device can be involved in several event rules. As different camera models possess
various capabilities, the supported response types would vary. For example, a PTZ camera
can execute a go-to preset point response, while this option is not available for other models
without this feature.
Event-Handling Schedule
Event rules become active or inactive based upon a weekly schedule, to enable
event-handling service, you will have to make sure the event-handing schedule of certain
device is well configured. By default, the event-handling schedule of each camera is enabled
for 24 hours once it is added to ENR system.
