ALARM RELAY OUTPUT OPERATION

Once the relay is triggered, it remains on until you manually turn it off. You can set the relay to arm itself automatically or you can manually arm
the relay.

This relay operates independently of the event (alarm) recording in the camera setup menus. The relay does not start alarm recording. It only
operates the device connected to the ALARM connectors on the rear panel.

Arming the Relay

Automatic armament is done in the Alarm Output menu, in which you specify the hours that the relay will operate if there is an alarm.

To manually arm the relay:

1. Press and hold the Function button. The Function Key List appears. Keep holding the Function button.

2. Press and release the Search backward (<<) button, and then release the Function button. A 60-second countdown begins (the numbers

appear on the screen) before the relay is armed. This is an exit feature that allows you to leave the area without tripping the alarm. Once
the relay is armed, it remains armed until it is triggered or you disarm it.

Relay Operation

When an alarm input is activated, a 20-second countdown begins before the relay turns on the warning light or buzzer. The numbers appear on
the screen. This is an entry feature that allows you to disarm the alarm when you enter your own premises.

Once the relay operates, the light or buzzer remains on until you manually turn off the relay.

Turning Off the Relay

1. Press and hold the Function button. The Function Key List appears. Keep holding the Function button.

2. Press and release the Search forward (>>) button, and then release the Function button.

The relay is now turned off.

If you are manually controlling the operation of the relay, another alarm will not activate the relay. To arm the relay again, refer to the procedure
in this section under

Arming the Relay

.

If the relay has been programmed to operate in the Alarm Output menu, another alarm will operate the relay as long as it is still within the pro-
grammed time period.
