Customizing Placeholder Rules
1. Open the file GenericPluginInfo.xml, located in the Generic VA installation folder (typically
C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Milestone\XProtect Analytics\Generic VA). In the
XML file, each camera connection will be listed under the tag.
2. Find the required connection (listed with the name of the camera used in the connection,
example: [AXIS 221 - Analytics] Camera 1). Under the connection, the
connection’s placeholder rule is listed.
3. Edit the placeholder rule name Rule so it exactly matches the name of rule in your analytics
solution.
