If you want to attach a JPEG frame or video fragment to the alarm message that is sent when a sensor is activated (Sensor object), remember that attachment is made only after the current archive file is written to disk. To reduce the waiting time (the Post-alarm time (sec) value, see Setting up sensors) and to guarantee that camera footage will be recorded, you can create the following Program object in Intellect, on the Programming tab.

This script is written for a camera with ID number 1 and for a Sensor object whose ID number is 1 as well.  With this script, we can set the Post-alarm time value to 7 seconds.

OnEvent("GRAY","1","ALARM")
{
[
    if( !CheckState("CAM","1","DETACHED") )
    {
        DoReact("CAM","1","REC_ROLLBACK");
        Wait(5);
        DoReact("CAM","1","REC_STOP");
    }
]
}
OnEvent("GRAY","1","ALARM")
{
[
    Wait(2);
    DoReact("GRAY","1","CONFIRM");
    Wait(2);
    DoReact("GRAY","1","ARM");
]
}

For constant recording mode, do not perform any commands for starting or stopping camera recording (REC_ROLLBACK и REC_STOP). In this case the following script variations can be used:

  1. Variation 1: when captioning is disabled in sensors settings. In this case ATM-Intellect Pro does not stop recording and the program shall be as follows:

    OnEvent("GRAY","1","ALARM")
{
[
    Wait(5); // Specifies the time after which the recording should be stopped in order to get the required clip length or number of frames
    DoReact("CAM","1","REC_STOP");
    Wait(2); // Pre-alarm record time in the camera settings = 2 sec.
    DoReact("CAM","1","REC_ROLLBACK"); // Start recording with pre-alarm recording of 2 seconds. This allows us not to lose data in the archive.
]
}
  2. Variation 2: when captoning is enabled in sensors settings. In this case ATM-Intellect Pro stops recording in specified time after captions are put onto video image. The program shall be as follows:
OnEvent("GRAY","1","ALARM")
{
[
    Wait(7); // This time equals to captions displaying time + 2 seconds of pre-alarm recording
    DoReact("CAM","1","REC_ROLLBACK"); // Start recording with pre-alarm recording of 2 seconds. This allows us not to lose data in the archive.
]
}
