An event in the camera is when an Event Type is activated and causes certain actions to 

be performed. The event type is the set of parameters (or conditions) that specifies how and 

when which actions will be performed. A common event type is when the camera uploads 

images when an alarm occurs. Many event types use an Event Server, to receive uploaded 

images.

This section describes how to set up event servers and event types, i.e. how to configure the 

camera to perform certain actions when events (e.g. alarms) occur.
