Hi,

We would like to develop Management Client plugin, to configure custom rules when hardware is added.

Please suggest how we can get hardware added event on Management Client plugin so we can write custom rules.

If you subscribe to “System.SystemConfigurationChangedIndication” you will get an event when a camera is added.

You will get the event always at startup.

Hi @Bo Ellegård Andersen (Milestone Systems)​,

As I see the description , this event is called when any Milestone configuration is changed.

How we can Identify, this is called when camera is added or any other configuration is changed for that camera?

There is no way to distinguish whether an existing camera has been changed or a new device has been added. The workaround I can think of is to have a collection of the existing cameras and when the event comes see if it is coming from an existing camera that way.

Thanks @Bo Ellegård Andersen (Milestone Systems)​ for feedback.

We try to implemented and will let you know if we face any problem.
