To send a request to a video archive by subtitles (By captions mode), follow these steps:

  1. Open the Search in archive component.
  2. Select an object from the Object name list.
  3. Make a request for archive search by using the following parameters:
    1. In the Period from: field, set the date and time for the start of the search period.
    2. In the to: field, set the date and time for the end of the search period.
    3. Click the By captions option button.

    4. Enter any keyword (available only if you click By captions).

      If Agent of control software is installed with Intellect 4.10.0 or later versions, it is possible to use the * symbol  while searching by titles to search for any number of any characters. Example:

      card* -> search results will include captions containing words “card”, “card-reader” etc.

      card -> search results will include only captions containing word “card”.

      If Agent of control software is installed with Intellect 4.9.8 or previous versions, each word is implicitly framed in *. Example:

      card -> search results will include captions containing words “card”, “card-reader” etc.


  4. Set the waiting time by using the Data timeout (min.) field.

  5. Click Search.

    You can cancel the search at any moment by clicking Cancel.


  6. If the search completes successfully, the search result is displayed as a list of lines. The number of lines in that list is limited to 500.

You can also make a request to the archive based on received data (see Request for video frames from an object).

This data is requested from Intellect's database at the object. If you want to change how long this data is stored, set the Events archive length parameter at the Security zone section at the Programming tab.
