The BVMS (Bosch Video Management System) plugin for Canary is deigned to allow Witness to send camera movement updates to a BVMS server. This implementation will close a BVMS Virtual Input when a camera move operation is started by Witness and will open the Virtual Input again after a configurable period of camera inactivity. If the camera is moving in response to an alarm then data about the camera, track and alarm will be sent to BVMS each time the camera moves to look at a new Alarm.
Step-by-step guide
Configuring the plugin:
- Ensure the BVMS plugin is selected when installing Canary
- Start and stop Canary to get the default configuration
