The AvertX HD510 has an Event Handler, or set of protocols that
determine how to deal with IP devices and their response to situations,
including both triggers and responses. The AvertX HD510 can interact
with numerous external devices to activate triggers and prompt
responses.

The event configuration section defines the responses to be performed
when an event is triggered. For most type of responses, you can create
several different preset responses, then mix and match in the event
rules.
Configurable responses are classified as Digital I/O ports, Notification
messages, Upload Video/Snapshot and Audio, and Send URL
Commands.
Click the Edit button next to the category that you want to configure.
Digital I/O Ports are used to connect digital input (DI) and digital output
(DO) devices. Typically, DI is a trigger device such as a switch or
sensor. The DO is notified by the trigger and then performs a specific
action, such as sounding an alarm.
To configure the Digital Input Device:
1. Define the active level as 1 or 0 using the drop-down menu. An
active level of 0 means the DI device is inactive unless
triggered.
