Configure Milestone user-defined event triggers within CCure 9000

You can assign user-defined events in Milestone to actions for CCure 9000 events. When CCure 9000 events occur, the Milestone user-defined events are triggered. Any alarms or rules configured in the Milestone system can be triggered by a user-defined event.

The user-defined event must already exist in the Milestone XProtect VMS for this configuration to work. Follow these steps to configure:

  1. In the CCure 9000 Administration Station application, select the Configuration tab, open the list and select Event.

  2. Click the New button to open the Event configuration window.

  3. Enter a Name and Description for the event, select the Enabled checkbox.

  4. On the General tab, select the Armed checkbox in the General tab.

  5. On the Action tab, click Add, then select Milestone Event Action from the list.

  6. At the bottom of the Event configuration window, open the Available Milestone Events list and select the already existing user-defined event.

  7. Next, click the arrow button to move the selected event to the Associated Event. The Event Server IP address will be filled out if the user-defined event is available.

  1. Click on Save and Close.

  2. To test the alarm setup: open the Configuration menu of the Administration Station application. Select Event from the list and search for the name of the event.

  3. Select the event from the Event tab, right click, expand the Action menu, and select Pulse from the menu.

  1. The selected user-defined event can trigger rules and alarms in Milestone XProtect. Check the Event log to verify that the event was triggered.
