How to Setup an Intrusion Rule (IP4M-1072EW-AI)

Intrusion allows the camera to trigger an event if an object, such as a human or vehicle, appears or crosses a set intrusion area set by the user. For more information on how to set up an intrusion rule, please refer to the information provided below.

Setting Up an Intrusion Rule

Step 1: Log in to the web user interface (web UI) for your camera. For more information on how to access the web UI for your camera click here

Step 2: In the web UI, click on Setup>>Event>>IVS. Click on the ( + ) icon to add the rule.

Step 3: Click on Draw Rule to begin drawing the intrusion area on the interface. This rule requires you to draw at least a four-point area on the interface to function. To draw an area, click the mouse on the interface and move it down or up to create a line. Once the line is created, move the mouse left or right to create another line and repeat the process until the detection area is created. 

An optional object filter can be set that will allow the rule only to be triggered if it detect certain objects such as a humans, vehicles, non-motor vehicles, or unlicensed vehicles. 

Note: Optional active deterrents such as a siren and red/blue LEDs can be enabled that activate once the rule is triggered by enabling the Warning Light and Siren option. Email notifications can be set as well that will send a snapshot of the event to your email by enabling Send Email and Snapshot options. Click Save.
