Change the Order of Sequence Events
To change the order of an event within the sequence, select the desired event line, and then select Move Up or Move Down.
Camera Action Specify the required camera actions. Note that the camera must be viewed in order to capture an image.
Total Event Time Specify the total time allocated for the event before the system processes the next event. Allow enough time to
include any Move to Preset and Capture options.
Wait for Capture Time If the image capture option was selected in the first dialog box, specify the amount of time the system is to wait
before capturing an image.
This value should allow the camera time to finish a preset function prior to capturing an image. The pan and tilt
speed of the selected camera must be considered in setting this value; a degrees-per-second value may be
provided in the appropriate camera user manual.
Select Preset This dialog box appears if Move to Preset was selected in the first dialog box. Select the preset the camera will
be sent to. If you are using a PelcoNet device, enter the amount of time to delay the preset switch (this allows
time for the PelcoNet device to switch over the network).
FTP Setting If you select Capture in the first dialog box, you can send an image capture file to an Internet file server, using
File Transfer Protocol (FTP). To use FTP, you must first configure FTP settings. Refer to the Configure FTP Settings
section.
To send a file, complete the following steps:
a Click Yes, and then select the FTP server from the drop-down box.
b If you enter a name in the Upload Filename field, VMX200 assigns the specified filename to the
capture file, and each capture overwrites previous captures with the same name on the FTP server.
VMX200 adds an appropriate file-type extension.
If you leave the Upload Filename field blank, VMX200 assigns a sequential filename to the file,
similar to the filenames assigned to alarm-based captures.
Finish Click Finish to complete the sequence event, or click Back to edit any of the previous steps.
