Camera Tampering

Camera Ta m per ing can genera te an alarm whenever the camera is repositioned, or when the lens is covered, sprayed or severely

defocused. To send an alarm, for example an email, an action rule must be set up.

To conﬁgure tampering:

1. Go to Detectors > Camera Tampering.

2. Set the Minim u m duration, that is, the time t hat m us t elapse before an alarm is generated. This can help prevent false

alarms for known conditions that affect the image.

3. Select Alarm for dark images if an alarm should b e gen e rate d if lights are dimmed or turned off, or if the lens is sprayed,

covered, or rendered severely out of focus.

4. Click Save.

To conﬁgure the pro duct to send an alarm when tampering occurs:

1. Go to Events > Action Rules.

2. Click Add to set up a new action r ule.

3. Enter a Name for the action r u le.

4. Under Condition,selectDetectors from the Trigger list.

5. Select Tamp erin g from the list of detectors.

6. Optionally, sele ct a schedule and set additional conditions.

7. Select the action. To send a n email, select Send Notiﬁcation a

nd 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 re turn to its untriggered state.

are automatically ignored).
