MODIFYING SCRIPT CONTENT
After you have named the new script, select the script actions and arrange them in the order you would like them to execute.
1. Click the Content tab (if it is not already visible).
2. Click the Modify button. The Create Script File dialog box appears. An Actions list displays all of the possible actions. A description of each
actions appears below the list as an action is selected. The Script Actions list displays the actions that are included in the script. The
actions are performed in the order in which they appear in this list.

3. Add actions to the script file in the following ways:
– Select an entry in the Actions list and then drag it to the Script Actions list.
– Double-click an entry in the Actions list to add it automatically to the Script Actions list.
4. Add settings for each action. Some actions do not have any settings associated with them. For example, “Restart entire system” has only
one possible meaning and does not need to have a device listed for the command to be meaningful. However, an action such as “Display
video” needs settings, such as camera source and destination monitor, to execute the command.
NOTE: Actions may be used more than once with different parameters. For example, there may be three lobby cameras and you may want to
reposition all three of them when an alarm is triggered. For this purpose you would select the “Preset” action three times.
A red X indicates that an action setting is missing.
To modify the settings:
a. Double-click an entry in the Actions list, or click the action and then click the Modify Values button. The Set Element Values dialog box
appears.
