Add Linkage Rule
A linkage (see the picture below for reference) refers to the process in which an event detected by resource A triggers actions of resource B, resource C, resource D, etc. You can add a rule using the pre-defined template or customize a rule to define such a linkage. The rule contains five elements, including Source (resource A), Triggering Event (the event detected by device A), Linked Resources ( resource B, resource C, resource D... ), Linkage Actions (actions of resource B, resource C, resource D... ), as well as Linkage Schedule (the scheduled time during which the linkage is activated). The linkages can be used for purposes such as notifying security personnel, upgrading security level, saving evidence, etc., when specific events happen.
The picture below shows the process of the linkage.
Sample Application
Assume that the end user is the manager of a jewelry store, and the store needs to upgrade security level during non-work hours. And the store has been installed with a PIR detector linked to a security control panel, a siren linked to the security control panel, and several network cameras.
In this case, you can set a linkage rule for him/her to trigger alarm output and recording in the store when object(s) in motion are detected in the store during non-work hours. The followings should be defined in the linkage rule:
-
Source: The PIR detector in the store.
-
Triggering Event: Motion detection event.
-
Linked Resources: The alarm output (the siren in this case) and the network cameras in the store.
-
Linkage Actions:
-
For siren: The triggering of the alarm output (i.e., the siren) sends out audible alarm.
-
For network cameras: The network cameras starts recording.
-
-
Linkage Schedule: Non-work hours every day.
