Configuring Event Groups
Event Groups allow you to associate multiple alarm and motion events, and then run a script (or scripts) when that group of events occurs.
For example, if the alarm on a door is triggered and motion is detected in the area near the door, you may want to run a script that repositions all
of the cameras to that area or sends an e-mail notification about an alarm. You can create up to 32 event groups.
NOTE: Scripting using Event Groups is managed from the Scripts tab in the Setup screen.
