Description of alarm notification types
When setting up the rules for alarm detection, you can specify how you want the
recorder to notify you about an alarm. You can select more than one notification
type. Not all notifications types are available for all types of alarms.
The alarm notification types are:
• Full-Screen Monitoring: Triggers the camera image in alarm to appear as
full-screen view.
• Audible Warning: Triggers an audible beep when a notification or alarm is
detected.
• Notify Alarm Recipient: Sends a signal to TruVision Navigator or other
software applications when an alarm or notification is detected.
• Send Email: Sends an email when an alarm or notification is detected. See
“Configuring email” on page 43 for information on how to configure the
recorder to send an email.
• Upload Captured Pictures to FTP: Sends snapshots to a designated FTP
site. See “Configuring an FTP server to store snapshots” on page 45 for more
information.
• Trigger Alarm Output: Triggers an alarm output or multiple alarm outputs
when a notification is detected for an external alarm. See “Setting up external
alarms” on page 34 for information on configuring an alarm output.
