Event Actions - Helios 3120HD Series Operation Manual

Snapshot Filename Format
Snapshot filenames can be configured to include the Host Name, IP Address, Event Type, Date, Time, User
Text or Sequence Number. In order to create a unique filename for each snapshot, the filename format must
include items that vary. In this case, the only two items that vary are the Time or Sequence Number. If you
want to overwrite the snapshot file each time, omit these choices from the format.
To set the Snapshot Filename Format:
1. Click on the Auxiliary tab.
2. Select the desired fields from the drop-down list.
NOTE: If User Text is selected, type a text message in the
User Text edit box. The message will appear on the screen.
3. To start over, click the Clear button and repeat steps 2.
4. Click the Apply or Save button to apply the settings to the camera temporarily or permanently.

2.14.4 Event Actions

Event Action Setup
The Event Action tab provides the controls for configuration
of one or more actions that will be triggered by the occur-
rence of a Helios camera event. The list of possible events
is contained in a tree view and includes external inputs,
periodic timer events, and pressure. For example, you want
to capture a snapshot and transfer the image to an FTP site
whenever a change in External Input 1 is detected. This
is set up by associating the FTP Snapshot action with the
External Input 1 event. The steps to configure the action
items are as follows:
To set up Event Actions:
1. Click on the Event Actions tab.
2. Click the desired action in the Action list and hold
the left mouse button down.
3. Drag the item to the desired event and release the left mouse button. The item will be added to the
Event. Up to five actions can be added per event.
4. Click the Apply button to apply the settings to the camera temporarily.
5. Click the Save button to apply the settings and save in the camera.
Note: Depending on which events are to be monitored, the associated parameters for the External I/O, FTP,
Email and Auxiliary settings must be set up. See Sections 2.14.1-2.14.3.
