Camera Element
The camera element uses attributes to describe the reason for the camera movement. Each report contains details about a single camera, indicated by the Camera Id. This Id will match the camera Id in the Witness configuration.
If a camera has been moved, either automatically to track a target or by the operator then the Active attribute will be true. If the camera is returning to its home position, then it be false.
The MoveType attribute indicates what caused the movement:
Track - Automatically tracking a target
Home - Camera is moving to its home position (inactive)
Manual - The operator has moved the camera through the Sentinel UI
Override - A keyboard or external input has been used to move the camera
