This is the IF condition for running a command (only after the specified events occur). You must configure the conditions to start a macro beforehand (see Configuring filters for event-driven macros).
You can enter the following parameters in the Awaiting command:
Example 1. The macro is conditioned by the Motion detected event on Camera 9 (1).
When it occurs, the macro continues. This also starts recording (2). Further macro actions are executed, if any.
If this event does not occur, the time-out is 4 minutes (3). After this time, a sound notification (4) plays.
Attention!
The Awaiting command does not affect the commands below (outside of) it.
Example 2. The macro checks the connection with the IP device.
If connection with the IP device is lost (1), the waiting time (2) for restoring the connection with the device is 30 seconds (3). The awaiting ends as soon as the connection with the IP device is restored.
If the connection is not restored, then after the awaiting time, an alarm is initiated (4).
