About events
The event pages allow you to configure your product to perform actions when different events occur. For example, the product
can start a recording or send an email notification when motion is detected. The set of conditions that defines how and when
the action is triggered is called an action rule.
How to trigger an action
1. Go to Settings > System > Events to set up an action rule. The action rule defines when the camera will perform certain
actions. Action rules can be setup as scheduled, recurring, or for example, triggered by motion detection.
2. Select what Trigger must be met to trigger the action. If you specify more than one trigger for the action rule, all
of them 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 action rule, the action rule needs to be restarted for the changes to take effect.

stop one minute after.
