32-Channel Rack Mount Network Video Recorder with 8-bay Hard Disks

NVR-3280

6.3.1 General Settings

The general settings section can help you quickly configure when an event is triggered, how often
events are triggered and the corresponding actions when events are triggered.


Start the event configuration by defining the general settings:

Define when an event will be triggered.
• Choose “Always” or “Only during…” under “Event Trigger Duration”.
• For the “Only during…” option, choose the days by using the check-box and then define the time range
on those days in the “Start Time” and “End Time” fields that you would like the event trigger function to
be enabled.

How often an event is triggered
• Set a time interval under “Event Trigger Interval” to define how often events are triggered.

Trigger action
Now that you have the event trigger duration and interval defined, choose what action to be taken during
an event trigger:

• You can choose to have the recorder send out the first few frames of the video recorder upon an event
is triggered.
• You can also choose to have the recorder send out a warning message in e-mail or in txt file format
and upload it to a destined FTP server.

6.3.2 I/O Settings

This function allows users to manage camera’s digital input and output ports right from the recorder. You
can set up the recorder to receive triggers from a particular camera’s input port and trigger a device,
such as an alarm that is connected to the recorder or camera’s output port. Cameras that do not have
built-in digital input/output port can also be configured to pair with the recorder’s DI/DO ports.
