Summary

This article details the steps to create a Generic Event in WAVE using Hanwha AI Packs.

NOTE: This example uses the Traffic AI Pack, but this can be performed with all AI Packs.

Prerequisites

To create a generic event, the system must have the AI Pack installed, licensed, and the Object enabled in the AI Pack.

Creating a Generic Event

Create a New User Profile

1. Log in to WAVE Client as a user with Administrator permissions.
   
   
2. Select User Management > Users from the three-line menu in the top left. 
   
   
   
3. Create a new user and assign the user role Advanced Viewer or Power User.
   
   
   
4. Click OK. 

Test the URL

To test the URL:

1. Open a web browser on a machine that is in the same network as the WAVE server and paste the URL in the following format (with your WAVE server IP) in any browser.
   
   https://IP OF WAVE SERVER:7001/api/createEvent?caption=Description of Event
   
   For example: 

   https://192.168.30.201:7001/api/createEvent?caption=SpeedLimit

    

2. Click Enter.
   
   

3. Enter the username and password created in Create a New User Profile.
   
   The following appears on the screen: {"error":"0","errorId":"ok","errorString":""}
   
   
   
   This confirms that the URL is correct.  
   
   
4. Confirm that the Event appears under the Event tab.
   
   
   
   

Transfer the Event

To transfer the event: 

1. In the camera GUI, select Event > Handover > Add.
   
   
   
   
2. Enter the following for the respective fields: 
   
   • Type: HTTPS
   • IP Address: IP of WAVE Server
   • Port: 7001
   • User: User created earlier
   • Password: Password created for user
   • Action: Custom
   • Query String: api/createEvent?caption=SpeedLimit
   
   
   
   
3. Click OK > Apply.
   
   
4. Select Event rule > Add.
   
   
   
   
5. Select the Event Trigger and Event Action Setting. 
   
   

Create the Generic Event

To create the generic event: 

1. In WAVE, right click on the camera and select Create Rule.
