The system makes it possible to create Manual Events that can be triggered by the user via the Surveillance Client. Unlike Global Events, Manual Events are associated with a camera and can be triggered via the main event trigger menu or via the camera's context menu, thus providing greater system organization. Like Global Events, Manual Events can also be used to generate actions, such as triggering sirens, opening electronic doors or turning on lamps. To learn how to configure Manual Events, see the Administration Client Manual.

 

To trigger manual events, select the desired camera on the screen and click on  the Trigger Events button  on the main screen of the Surveillance Client, as shown in the figure below:

To trigger them, simply click on the desired item:
