Analytics Event Trigger via library
This sample demonstrates how to submit an Analytics Event to the Milestone XProtect Event Server using the .NET library.
Analytics events can be used to trigger alarms.
Both the analytics event and the alarm can be seen in the Smart Client, or by 3rd-party applications.
Alarm Definitions can be configured to create alarms based on Analytics events and the alarms can be seen in the Smart Client.
How to configure and run the sample
- Set up an analytics event named MyAnalyticsEvent01 in your XProtect Management Client
- Setup an alarm that is created based on the analytics event (the name configured above)
- Start the sample, login to the XProtect Server, select a camera from
the system as event source, and hit the "Send analytics event" button.
- Note: The Analytics event name must match a name you have configured in the Management Client
- Use the Smart Client Alarm Manager tab to see the Alarm in the Alarm List.
- Switch the Smart Client alarm list to show events and see the event. (You can omit step 2 and 4 if you would like to use analytics event without using alarms.)
