Live Filter Events

The Intellex live filters enable the unit to respond to specific activity at specific cameras. When configured, these filters help the unit record important activity and ignore unimportant activity.

A live filter event occurs when the live filter is triggered by some activity in the camera’s field of view.

When the unit detects a live filter event:

1.

The unit energizes the alarm output associated with the camera.

2.

The unit records images from the alarm camera at the alarm record rate and quality setting (see Alarm Setup in the Intellex Installation Instructions).

3.

The unit adds the alarm camera to the alarm group and records its images more often than nonalarm cameras (see

Alarm Groups).

4.

The unit lights the Alarms indicator as soon as the alarm is cleared.

5.

The unit flags the video segment in the image database with the name of the live filter.

6.

If the Pre-Alarm Duration option is selected, the unit saves the pre-alarm images to the image database (see Custom

Schedule Setup in the Intellex Installation Instructions).

7.

If the Alarm Message Display option is selected (see

Alarm Setup in the Intellex Installation Instructions): a.

If the camera is not currently displayed or is displayed in the camera sequencing window, the unit switches the live display monitor to the 4x4 format and overrides the display settings for the duration of the alarm (see Display Setup in the Intellex Installation

Instructions).

b. The unit displays ALARM over the camera image.

c.

If the Latch Messages option is selected (see Alarm

Setup in the Intellex Installation Instructions), the unit enables the Clear Latched button on the Utility Options screen (see Utility Options).
