Integrated video management systems can notify and confirm motion detection, etc. as events.
- The maximum number of events per tenant is 10000 and the maximum retention period is 90 days.
- If the number of events per tenant exceeds 10000, the excess is automatically deleted from the oldest events. Even if the number of events is less than 10000, events that have been occurring for more than 90 days are automatically deleted.
Configure event notification settings. #
Nx Witness must be configured in advance to detect motion detection, etc. as an event in the integrated video management system.
- Only motion detection and digital inputs can be notified by the integrated video management system.
- This function is not available for amnimo VMS users.
Configuration on Nx Witness side #
Deactivate time synchronization over the Internet
Turn off time synchronization between Nx Witness and the Internet and synchronize with the server (Edge Gateway) time.
If this is not done, the time of the event may appear out of sync with the Edge Gateway time.

*For events that occur more than once during the interval, it is not known which event will be selected when the next action occurs.
Configuration on the part of the integrated video management system #
The events (*) configured in Nx Witness can be viewed in the event list.
You can also receive notifications on your browser when events occur. This section describes the procedure for notifications in the integrated video management system.
Only motion detection and digital inputs can be notified by the integrated video management system.
| Enable Event Notification | Enables notification functions such as notifying the user of an event that has occurred with the event notification icon (  ) or displaying the event notification screen in a pop-up window. （The number displayed on the event notification icon is the number of detected events). |
| Notification target setting | Specify the cameras to be notified and the events to be notified. Cameras and events that match the criteria will be notified. (Only “Motion Detection” and “Digital Input” event types are available for notification.) |
| Automatically display events | When a new event to be notified occurs, the event notification screen is automatically displayed. (Figure below) |
| Sounds a notification tone | Sounds a notification tone (buzzer) on the event notification screen. |
