Below is an example of how the Event manager module works. It is required to track employee access through the specified door equipped with card readers and video camera for matching employee photo stored in the Intellect database and image of person that use the card reader.

Do the following:

  1. Create the template of displaying using the template editor and add to it objects which should be displayed in the Event manager window:

    1. field for displaying photo assigned to employee (1);
    2. database fields (2);
    3. field for displaying image from video camera (3);
    4. buttons of actuators control (4);
    5. text fields with explanation (5).
  2. Configure events and reactions for the Event manager window (configuring of events and reactions is presented in the Configuring the rule of displaying and Configuring the operator reactions sections). Select the Access permitted or Access denied event to display and Open or Do not open as reactions. For Do not open, set the Operator's reaction checkbox.
  3. After all configurations are done, when user uses a card, the Event manager window will look as shown in the figure. 

    If Operator's reaction checkbox was set at step 2, then after you click the Do not open button, a window is displayed where you should enter a comment to complete the action. Until you enter a comment, the OK button will be inactive.

In the lower left part of the Event manager window (1) there is a protocol that displays the events and objects which are specified in the display rule for the current template, as well as the operator action status, object type, object name, event name, user name as specified in the settings, and date and time of the event.

If the Hide object type, Hide event name checkboxes are set or Do not show value for the User field is selected in the Event manager settings, then the Type, Event, and User columns are absent in the Event manager protocol, respectively (see Specifying parameters of the Event Manager module).


In the upper right part of the Event manager window (2) there is a list of user parameters specified in the current template of displaying, and the information related to them.

In the lower right part of the Event manager window (3) there is an information from the Additional information (comment) parameter of the user.

The action status icons are follows:

  1.  – event processed by operator;
  2.  – event process by operator from other computer;
  3.  – waiting for operator action;
  4.  – event was skipped on the expiry of the specified time period;
  5.  – informational event;
  6.  – waiting timeout expired for the event.
