I/O Control Window
In the I/O Control window you are able associate particular
events and event buttons with one or more particular
outputs. This way you are able to define that when a
selected event occurs, or when a particular event button is
clicked, one or more selected outputs will be triggered.
Note: Use of features in the I/O Control window requires
that events and outputs have been specified (see About
Input, Events & Output ... on page 73).
You access the I/O Control window from the Administrator
window (see page 26), by clicking the I/O Control...
button.
Associating Event with Particular Outputs
When associating an event with one or more outputs, you are able to select between all outputs
defined on the XProtect Basis+ system; you are not limited to selecting outputs defined on a
particular device.
To associate a particular event with a particular output, do the following:
1. Select the required event in the Available Events list in the left side of the I/O Control
window.
Tip: Events as well as event buttons may be listed. When you select an event or event
button in the Available Events list, you can view detailed information about the selected
event or event button under Event Information in the lower part of the window.
2. Select the required output in the list of available outputs (the list in the middle of the
window).
3. Click the >> button located below the Selected Outputs list. This will copy the selected
output to the Selected Outputs list. When the selected event occurs, or when the selected
event button is clicked, the selected output will be triggered.
You are able to associate an event or an event button with more than one output: Simply repeat
the process for each required output. To remove an output from the Selected Outputs list, simply
select the required output, and click the << button located below the Selected Outputs list.
Output Settings for [Device Name]
[Camera Name] Window
In the Output Settings for [Device Name] [Camera Name]
window you are able to associate a camera with particular
external outputs, defined in the I/O Setup window (see page
74), for example the sounding of a siren or the switching on of
lights. The associated outputs can be triggered automatically
when motion is detected as well as manually through output
buttons available in the Remote Client (see page 142) and Smart
Client (see page 140).
