Events Tab
The Events tab shows a scrollable history of all detected events:
- Left panel — Event list grouped by time, with event type icons and camera names.
- Right panel — Details for the selected event, including a camera snapshot, timestamp, and action buttons.
Filtering Events
Use the event type filter chips at the top of the Events tab to show only specific event types. For example, tap Person to see only person detection events, or Vehicle to focus on vehicle activity.
Event Actions
When you select an event from the list, you can:
- Open Camera — Jump to the full-screen player showing the camera that triggered the event.
- Watch Recording — Play back the recording from around the time of the event (if the camera has onboard storage).
- Browse History — Open the recording browser for that camera.
Configuring Alerts
Control which events trigger notifications in Settings > Alerts > Event Detection. You can enable or disable specific event types per camera.
