Setting Up an Action Rule
An action rule defines the conditions that must be met for the p roduct to perfo rm an action, for example record video or send email
notifications. If multiple conditio ns are defined, all must be met to trigger the action.
The following example describes how to set up an action rule to record video to a network s hare if there is movement in the
camera’s field of view.
Set up motion detection and add a network share:
1. Go to Detectors > Motion Detection and configure a motion detection window, see
page 30
2. Go to System Options > Storage and set up the network share, see
page 49
.
Set up the action rule:
1. Go to Events > Action Rules and click Add.
2. Select Enable rule and enter a descriptive name for the rule.
3. Select Detectors from the Trigger drop-down list.
4. Select Motion Detection from the drop-down list. Select the motion detection window to use.
5. Optionally, sel ect a Schedule and Additional conditions,seebelow.
6. Under Actions, select Record Video from t he Type drop-down list.
7. Select a Stream profile and configure the Duration settings as described below.
8. Select Network Share from the Storage drop-down list.
To add additional criter ia, select the Additional conditions op tion and add additional triggers. To prevent an action from b eing
triggered repeatedly, a Wait at least time can be s et. Enter the time in hours, minutes and seconds, during which the trigger
should be ignored before the action rule can be activated again.
The recording Duration of some actions can be set to include time immediately before and after the event. Select Pre-trigger time
and/or Post-trigger time and enter the number of seconds. When While the rule is active is enabled and the action is triggered
again during the post-trigger time, the recording time will be extended with another post-trigger time period.
