*Pre-requisites: HTTP CGI server setup.

*Pre-requisites: SMTP server / HTTP CGI server setup.

Send URL commands

URL commands can be sent to HTTP CGI servers upon event. This provides the possibility of

highly intelligent response upon event. IP devices and many other devices also have embedded

CGI servers that may be controlled.

When Event Handler sends an URL command, it will send one set of command when the event is

trigged, and another as the event becomes inactive. Depending on the CGI design, the URL

commands may be able to be stringed together, and multiple commands may be issued in a

single line.

An example would be when the access control device at the entrance detects an entry, this

device provides a DI signal to the PTZ camera, and triggers an event. This event then sends a

loopback command to the PTZ Camera itself (by setting its own IP as the HTTP CGI server). The

PTZ Camera then moves to a preset location, stays until the event is over, and then moves back

to another location. At the same time it moves to the pre-set location, it increases the bitrate from

1M to 3M, and the frame rate from 4 fps to 8 fps. The bitrate / fps changes are reverted at the end

of event.
