Configuring Event Type in Immix

When OWS is configured to send alerts on Motion; it sends an alert both on Motion On and Motion Off.
In order to save on storage space, you will want to configure a Motion Off event in Immix for every Motion On event, and set the Motion Off event to Auto Handle.

  1. In your Immix account, under System > Event Type Configuration, select OpenEye OWS.
  2. Then select the Auto Handle check box under Motion Off. This will set newly created Motion Off events to automatically clear themselves.
