Application developers regularly wish to have different levels of customization within their own applications. Such customizations can be done through the event manager. The event system provides several trigger sources and action types, which allow administrators to record emergency images, such as Motion detection, IO control, FTP or EMAIL to the outside world in a simple process.
The PIXORD NC's event manager provides an event control through programmable Event Scripts which are the combination of several events. Each event works simultaneously. If one of the trigger conditions in the event script is satisfied, then the corresponding action will start to be executed accordingly. A comprehensive set of “trigger conditions” and “action commands” are allowed to fit in several applications without limitation.
To start the event manager, simply click on the Event icon, then the event frame will pop up.
There are two ways to enter the event script. One is using the “ Script Wizard ” which follows the procedure of filling up some basic commands, generating and appending a new script code to the edit window. The other one is editing the form manually, which is meant for experienced users who want control deeply the functionalities of the events operation. Please refer to the “ Event Script Programmers Guide ”, which can be downloaded from the PIXORD website.
