There's a fantastic option in the forum called "Search", I recommend you to use it before asking for help.

Hope it helps,

After more than 15 years, no longer using ZM as surveillance system.
Now in the dark side, using a commercial system...

using nc and allowing the
ZM_OPT_TRIGGERS

ZoneMinder can interact with external systems which prompt or cancel alarms. This is done via the zmtrigger.pl script. This option indicates whether you want to use these external triggers. Most people will say no here.
