Security for a Multi-Media System
Multi-Media units provide notification of events. Events can be produced from four sources:
Outside World event Rapid Eye’s motion detection ( Motion Detection , page 127 ) and
Honeywell Video Analytics ( Tamper Detection , page 131 ) can trigger alarms. Connecting a
unit to sensors for fire, water and so on, can also produce such events.
Customer-device event Messages from a cash register, card swipe and so on, that can
be sent to a Multi-Media unit. See Customer Data and Customer Device Events , page 157 .
Multi-Media Unit event For notifying a Multi SA of events at the unit or of some events
from the IT environment. Extended power outages can also be monitored by connecting a
Multi-Media unit to an alarm panel. See
Tracing Events on page 210 .
View Operator event An administrator can trace events caused by View operators, such
as connecting to a site, and so on. Notification of such events is usually of more concern
than video of that event. See
Tracing Events on page 210 .
Setting an Event to Trigger an Alarm or To Be Logged
When events occur, the Multi-Media unit can respond in the following ways:
The Event is Logged. The Multi-Media unit logs the time of the event. These events are
not listed in an alarm session.
Sound an alarm in View. Alarms reach View operators either through an alarm station or
during an alarm session. They are stored in the Multi db. See Figure 10-12 .
Do both. An event can sound an alarm and be logged.
Have no effect. This is the default setting for most events. For the events that are logged
by default, see Table 10-6 , on page 209 . Even when alarm hardware is connected to a
Multi-Media unit, an event is ignored until View is used to set it to trigger an alarm, to be
logged or both.
Setting an Alarm
Setting events to trigger alarms in your system is an option that is turned off by default.
Alternatively, events can be silently logged for administrative purposes.
