Logical Rule

The MEGApix® IVA/IVA+™ camera’s Logical rule can be configured to combine various rules and inputs using logical expressions, to reduce false events.  A Logical Rule can combine multiple rules into a single condition.  Objects are checked against all combined rules before they become an event and trigger an action, also known as a ‘double-knock’ rule.

This article will outline how to create a Logical rule using the camera’s IVA analytic options.

 

**NOTE: MEGApix IVA/IVA+ cameras have been superseded by the DW MEGApix Ai Camera series.

 

Supported/Affected Devices:

  • MEGApix® IVA/IVA+™ Camera Series
