Events

Set up rules and alerts
You can create rules to make your device perform an action when certain events occur. A rule consists of conditions and actions.
The conditions can be used to trigger the actions. For example, the device can start a recording or send an email when it detects
motion, or show an overlay text when it records.
Trigger an action
1. Go to Settings > System > Events to set up a rule. The rule defines when the camera will perform certain actions. Rules
can be setup as scheduled, recurring, or for example, triggered by motion detection.
2. Select the Condition that must be met to trigger the action. If you specify more than one condition for the rule, all of the
conditions must be met to trigger the action.
3. Select which Action the camera should perform when the conditions are met.
Note
If you make changes to an active rule, then the rule needs to be restarted for the changes to take effect.

stop one minute after.
