09/17/2021 08:42:14: Event Input connection error for camera "Northside" 5.3.4,7015,54 Connection closed by the other side.

The regularity of it seems strange. Can anyone suggest what might be causing this? Thanks

  • The event input connection is the one that monitors the camera for the "Camera triggers" that can be configured under Preferences > Cameras > Device (i.e. Port 1, Port 2, PIR sensor, Motion detection). The fact that this connection is closing regular every half hour indicates that the camera may be closing the connection on purpose, perhaps if there have been no events in the preceding half hour. Do you need to use these features? If not, simply untick these options. Otherwise, we'll see if there is anything we can do to either keep the connection alive, or avoid reporting the problem if an immediate reconnect succeeds.
  • Ben, I've disabled settings except for motion detection and rebooted camera. Since then no more entries in the Log. Thanks
