The C-Werk software package enables you to work with virtual sensors. This involves triggering a virtual sensor and producing a virtual sensor event / alarm in the VMS. When triggered, the virtual sensor status switches - Closed / Open.
To create and configure a virtual sensor, complete the following steps:
- Run IP Device Discovery Wizard (see Adding and removing IP devices).
- In the form for manually adding an IP device, select HttpListener in the Vendor drop-down list (1).
- In the Port field, specify the port number that will be used sensor status queries (2).
- Click the
button
The IP Server object is automatically created to host 4 virtual sensors.
Attention!
For a virtual sensor to work correctly, please do as follows: use the Open circuit.
You can configure virtual sensors in the same way as real ones. Also you can specify the time-out when virtual sensors reset their status in the Alarm ExpirationTime field of the IP Server object.
Note
It ranges from 0 to 100.
Note
This setting is applied only after you disable and enable the sensor again.
