You can investigate events that occur in intrusion detection areas (Intrusion
detection area master armed, Intrusion detection area duress, Intrusion detection area input
trouble, and so on), using the Intrusion detection area activities
report.
What you should know
For example, if you are aware of a critical intrusion detection event (for example,
Intrusion detection area duress) that occurred in the last 5 minutes, you can
search for that event, review the video associated with the event, and trigger an
intrusion alarm, if needed.
Procedure
-
From the home page, open the Intrusion detection area
activities task.
-
Set up the query filters for your report. Choose one or more of the following
filters:
- Intrusion
detection areas
- Select the intrusion detection
areas to investigate.
- Custom fields
- Restrict the search to a predefined custom
field for the entity. This filter only appears if custom fields are
defined for the entity, and if the custom field was made visible to you
when it was created or last configured.
- Event
timestamp
- Define the time range for the query. The
range can be defined for a specific period or for global time units,
such as the previous week or the previous month.
- Events
- Select the events of interest. The event types
available depend on the task you are using.
- Initiator
- Restrict the search to the entities at the source of the events
that triggered the activity. For example, if you configured an
event-to-action to trigger the action Disarm intrusion
detection area on Access granted (to cardholder)
event, then the cardholder would be the initiator of the
Intrusion detection area disarmed event.
-
Click Generate report.
The intrusion detection area events are listed in the report
pane.
- To show the corresponding video of an event in a tile,
double-click or drag the item from the report pane to the canvas.
If there is no camera associated to the intrusion detection area, the intrusion detection area
icon is displayed.
- To control the selected tile, use the intrusion detection area widget.
