Setting Up an Action Rule
An action rule denes the conditions that must be met for the product to perform an action, for example record video or send an
email notication. If multiple conditions are dened, all of them must be met to trigger the action.
The following example describes how to set up an action rule to record video to a network share if there is movement in the
camera’s eld of view.
Set up motion detection and add a network share:
1. Go to Detectors > Motion Detection and congure a motion detection window. See page 27
2. Go to System Options > Storage and set up the network share. See page 45.
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, select a Schedule and Additional conditions. See below.
6. Under Actions, select Record Video from the Type drop-down list.
7. Select a Stream prole and congure the Duration settings as described below.
8. Select Network Share from the Storage drop-down list.
9. Optionally, select the Fallback action option to, for example, send an email notication if the recording does not start.
See Fallback Action on page 33.
To add additional criteria, select the Additional conditions option and add additional triggers. To prevent an action from being
triggered repeatedly, a Wait at least time can be set. Enter the time in hours, minutes and seconds, during which the trigger
should be ignored before the action rule can be activated again.
