ALARM SETTINGS
The Alarm Settings area allows the administrator of the DVR to set alarms for
a number of alarm types. The most important is setting alarms for motion
detection and digital input on different cameras. This is a complex task, so in
order to understand this area please read over this part carefully. There are
also alarms for disk failure, disk capacity limitation, and no camera signals.
Take a look at the detailed descriptions below to understand alarm settings.
Motion Detection on each camera can be configured under the first setting
screen (Cam). However, users may not be aware when motion detection is
triggered. Under “Alarms”, periods of time can be set up so as to trigger an
alarm when motion is sensed. There are four areas of configuration:
Camera, Pre-alarm recording, Enable-Trigger Period, and Alarm Trigger-
ing Device.
