Event Management
Ocularis facilitates displaying, investigating and shared handling of events received from:

A recorder’s native video motion detection (VMD) component

Attached Devices

Integrated Video Content Analytics

Third party access control and security systems
Administrators determine which events to which a user should be alerted. Ocularis events maintain the following
features:
 Incoming events appear in the Alerts Manager in the Ocularis Client.
 Video walls and Views containing a Blank Screen will display video from configured events.
 Alert notifications may be designated with low, medium or high priority. Events with high priority will
display on an Ocularis Client blank screen pane until a user “handles” the event. Medium or low priority
alerts display for a designated time period.
 Alerts appear in the order of occurrence
Each alert is accompanied by relevant metadata. Typically this includes the camera name that captured the event,
time, date and type of event. The type of event is specified in generic terms (e.g. ‘VMD Event’) or, in the case of
video content analytics or access control-generated events, by the analytics rule that triggered the event (e.g.
“Stalled Vehicle on Shoulder’).
Multiple authorized operators can share the investigation and handling of events through the dynamically-updated
Alerts Manager in Ocularis Client. Once an event is ‘handled’, it is removed from the Alerts Manager. In this case,
subsequent investigation is possible only through Handled Alerts in the Ocularis Client.
Note:
Camera events are supported with Ocularis ES, Ocularis LS, Ocularis CS and Ocularis IS.
In order to use camera events with Ocularis Base, an event proxy must first be installed. See the Ocularis
Installation & Licensing Guide for instructions on installation and configuration of supported event proxies.
