10.4.2.2 Setting an alarm based on the digital input
To configure an alarm based on the digital input, follow this procedure:
1. In the Active Measurements section, click the plus sign under Add alarm next to the
digital input result to be used for the alarm. The Alarm dialog box appears.
2. In the Alarm label section, type an Alarm name.
3. In the Trigger section and in the Value list; select “0” to trigger the alarm on a low sig-
nal or select “1” to trigger on a high signal.
4. In the Action section, select which actions the camera will perform when an alarm is
triggered:
Digital OUT Outputs a digital pulse. Also, type a pulse length (in millisec-
onds) in the Pulse time box.
E-mail Automatically sends the captured Image, Result, or Video to the
recipients defined in Settings > Alarm recipients. For more infor-
mation, see section 10.6.2 Alarm recipients, page 33.
Send to FTP
Automatically sends the captured Image or Video to the FTP
site defined in Settings > Alarm recipients. For more information,
see section 10.6.2 Alarm recipients, page 33.
Save to camera
Automatically saves the captured Image or Video to the memo-
ry of the camera.
During alarm
Temporarily disables the periodic calibration while the image/
video is being captured.
The image/video can later be viewed and managed under the Library tab:
• the captured image frame that triggered the alarm,
• the 5 second video sequence when the alarm was triggered.
5. When completed, click Set alarm. The alarm is now listed under Active alarms.
10.4.2.3 Setting an alarm based on sensor temperature
The internal temperature sensor can act as a thermometer for the ambient temperature.
To configure an alarm based on the internal temperature sensor, follow this procedure:
1. In the Active Measurements section, click the plus sign under Add alarm next to the
Sensor temperature. The Alarm dialog box appears.
2. In the Alarm label section, type an Alarm name.
3. In the Trigger section, select the Condition and temperatures that will trigger this
alarm:
Below Triggers an alarm when the temperature is below the specified Thresh-
old value. Also type a Hysteresis value.
Above Triggers an alarm when the temperature is above the specified Thresh-
old value. Also type a Hysteresis value.
Interval Triggers an alarm when the temperature is within the specified Min val-
ue and Max value.
Hysteresis is the interval within which the temperature value is allowed to vary without
causing a change in the trigger. If the threshold is set above 30.0°C and the hystere-
sis is set at 2.0°C, the trigger goes high when the temperature rises above 30.0°C
and stays high until the temperature drops below 28.0°C. In contrast, if the threshold
is set below 30.0°C, and the same hysteresis value is kept, the trigger goes high if
the temperature drops below 30.0°C and stays high until the temperature rises above
32.0°C.
4. In the Threshold time box, type the amount of time that has to pass before an alarm
is triggered. This can be used to avoid false alarms.
