TRIGGERED ACTIONS
Each type of alarm can be configured to generate an audible alarm - externally or internally, as
well as triggering other, pre-defined actions.
Buzzer - Select whether to activate the computer buzzer if alarms have been triggered and
also select how long the buzzer sounds.
Pre-Alarm Record - Select whether the system will pre-record and for how long.
Big Screen Holding Time - The corresponding channel will be full screen when an alarm is
triggered. Set the full screen hold time here.
Motion Holding Time - How long the recording continues after motion stops.
Sensor Holding Time - How long the recording continues after sensor stops.
Disk Shortage Alarm - If the Partition free space is less than the set percent, the system will
stop recording or recycling, but will sound an alert according to the settings.
Alarm Record
Every sensor can trigger multiple channels to record. For example: if CAM1, CAM4 and CAM5
are selected for Sensor2, then once the sensor is activated, CAM1, CAM4 and CAM5 will
begin to record.
ALARM TYPES
Different conditions can be set to trigger an alarm.
Video Loss - Users can select alarm output
for this option.
For example: If you select alarm_out1 and
alarm_out3 for video loss. Then video loss of
any channel will trigger alarm_out1, alarm_
out3 to show a red light in the Alarm output
status panel
Disk Alarm - When HDD available space is
less than the set value, it will trigger alarm.
Sensor - If users have mounted sensors,
when the sensors have been activated, it will
trigger the selected output alarms.
Motion - Users can set the output of motion
detection alarm by different alarms and
remote alarm.
Users can also select the voltage (high or low) for alarm signals.
