About detectors

Camera Tampering can generate an alarm when the camera is repositioned, or when the lens is covered, spray-painted or severely

de-focused. To send an alarm, for example via email, an action rule must be set up.

How to configure tampering detection

1. Go to Detectors > Camera Tampering.

2. Set the Minimum duration, that is the time that must elapse before an alarm is generated. Increase time to prevent

false alarms for known conditions that affect the image.

3. Select Alarm for dark images if an alarm should be generated when lights are dimmed or turned off, or if the lens is

sprayed, covered, or rendered severely out of focus.

4. Click Save.

How to configure an action rule for tampering alarm

1. Go to Events > Action Rules.

2. Click Add to set up a new action rule.

3. Enter a Name for the action rule.

4. Under Condition, select Detectors from the Trigger list.

5. Select Tampering from the list of detectors.

6. Optionally, select a schedule and set additional conditions.

7. Select the action. Example: To send an email, select Send Notification and select a Recipient from the list of defined

recipients.

Note

The While the rule is active option under Duration cannot be used with camera tampering, since camera tampering does not

have a duration and once it has been triggered it will not automatically return to its untriggered state.

For more information on actions rules, see About events on page 31.
