Specify event properties
You can specify properties for each event you have added. The number of properties depends on the
device and the event. In order for the event to work as intended, you must specify some or all of the
properties identically on the device as well as on this tab.
Use several instances of an event
To be able to specify different properties for different instances of an event, you can add an event
more than once.
The following example is specific to cameras.
Example: You have configured the camera with two motion windows, called A1, and A2. You
have added two instances of the Motion Started (HW) event. In the properties of one
instance, you have specified the use of motion window A1. In the properties of the other
instance, you have specified the use of motion window A2.
When you use the event in a rule, you can specify that the event should be based on motion
detected in a specific motion window for the rule to be triggered:
