Configure Device Actions for Person ID

You can set the linkage actions of an access control device or elevator control device for person ID, so that when the device detects the credentials of the person, it can execute actions such as capturing a picture, triggering alarm output, triggering buzzer, locking/unlocking access point, etc. In this way, you can monitor the behaviors and whereabouts of the person.
