Creating Scripts
An Endura script is like a macro but provides much more power and flexibility. Scripts may be used to control almost all system functions and may
be combined in almost any order. Scriptable functions include the following:
• Display video: Displays video from the indicated camera.
• Start recording: Starts recording video from the indicated video source.
• Stop recording: Halts recording of the indicated video source.
• Run script: Initiates execution of a remote script.
• Wait: Pauses execution of a script for a given number of seconds. Insert this command between presets or cameras when scripting a tour,
so that the video from each source will be displayed for an adequate length of time.
• Send mail: Sends e-mail message to a given recipient.
• Activate relay: Activates a relay device.
• Preset: Moves camera to a specified preset. A preset allows you to direct a PTZ (camera positioning system) to a predetermined location.
• Pattern: Runs a specified pattern on a camera. A pattern allows you to program the movements of PTZ-enabled cameras.
• Start Loop: Indicates the starting point for a series of commands that are repeated. Any commands between this action and the End Loop
action will be repeated.
• End Loop: Indicates the ending point for a series of commands that are repeated. Any commands between the Start Loop action and this
action will be repeated.
