[1] Zones of particular types do not activate camera. These are 8. Exit terminator, 9. Keyswitch,
17. Eng. reset. When an assigned zone is one of the listed types, it is ignored when active.
[2] If the camera has been activated by a standard reporting event, another event caused by
camera activation does not occur. Detailed codes and subevent values are described in
Appendix B “Advisor Advanced reporting codes” on page 327.
[3] Custom type events can only be activated by condition filters.
[4] See “4.5.n.3.m.3 Report as” on page 194 for details.
Each of these types can be configured in “2.2.2.n.4.9.1 Pic settings” on page
155.
Depending on camera event type, the camera can be programmed to take a
single picture or a series of pictures, in low or high resolutions.
How to program a camera:
1. Program the wireless PIR camera expander. See “Bus devices” on page 58
for more details.
2. Program a wireless PIR camera as a wireless PIR detector. See “Wireless
device programming” on page 92 for more details.
If the detector is programmed successfully, the appropriate camera is created
automatically. The created camera number is equal to the zone number of the
wireless PIR detector.
3. Program the camera options. See “4.5 Cameras” on page 193.
4. Assign zones to the camera. Choose up to four zones. The camera is useful if
its field of view covers these zones or possible burglar escape paths from
there. See “4.5.n.2 Pics by zone” on page 193.
By default, the first assigned zone is the zone of the wireless detector built in
the configured wireless PIR camera.
5. If necessary, program conditional event filters that activate the camera. See
“4.5 Cameras” on page 193 for details.
