Creating test events

The Editor-Debugger utility is capable of generating test events chosen by the user to help debug the scripts. Test events are not registered by the video surveillance system, i. e. they are not listed in the events log and not saved to the database.

No more than one test event can be created for each script.

To create a test event, do the following:

1. In the Debug and edit menu, select Edit test event, or click the  button in the toolbar.
2. The Test message window will open. 
   
   This window is used for entering the test event parameters.
3. Enter the following information in the fields of the Test message window:
   
   1. SourceType – object type;
   2. SourceId – object identification number;
   3. SourceAction – the event generated by the specified object;
   4. param – additional event parameters;
   5. value – values of the additional parameters.
4. Click the OK button.
   
   

The test event is now created.

The created test event will be displayed in the Event field in a special string format.

Figure shows the test event example: “Arm Camera 111”.
