To activate the image in the CP-Cam Viewer the AlphaCom must send a command based on a triggered event. In the following example the AlphaCom triggers when someone pressed the call button on the IP Video Door Station. The call button is configured to make a Call Request to the reception (where the CP-Cam Viewer is installed). The AlphaCom will then react on the Received Mail event, and send the command IND %2.phy 2 1 1, which activates an output on the IP Station. The ouput is wired to the CP-Cam which in turn broadcasts a message that the CP-Cam Viewer sees, and therefore reacts with a pop-up of the image.
