9.1    Sensor Alarm 
To  complete  the  entire  sensor  alarm  settings,  you  should  enable  the  sensor  alarm  of  each 
camera and then set up the alarm handling of each camera.   
①  Click StartSettingsAlarmSensor Alarm to go to the following interface. 
②  Select the alarm type (NO or NC) according to trigger type of the sensor.   
③  Enable the sensor alarm of each camera.   
④  Check  the  “Duration”,  “Record”,  “Snapshot”,  “Push”,  “Alarm-out”  and  “Preset”  and 
enable  or  disable  the  “Buzzer”,  “Pop-up  Video”,  “Pop-up  Message  Box”  and  “E-mail”  as 
required.   
⑤  Click “Apply” to save the settings. 
The configuration steps of the above mentioned alarm linkages are as follows.     
Duration: it refers to the interval time between the adjacent motion detections. For instance, if 
the duration time is set to 10 seconds, once the system detects a motion, it will go to alarm and 
would not detect any other motion (specific to camera) in 10 seconds. If there is another motion 
detected during this period, it will be considered as continuous movement; otherwise it will be 
considered as a single motion. 
Record: check it and then the “Trigger Record” window will pop up automatically (you can 
also click “Configure” button to pop up the window). Select camera on the left side and then 
click    to set the camera as the trigger camera. Select trigger camera on the right side and 
then  click    to  cancel  the  trigger  camera.  Click  “OK”  button  to  save  the  settings.  The 
trigger cameras will record automatically when the sensor alarm is triggered. 
Snapshot:  check  it  and  then  the  “Trigger  Snapshot”  window  will  pop  up  automatically. 
Configure the trigger camera in the window. The trigger cameras will snap automatically when 
the sensor alarm is triggered. 
Push: check it and choose NO or OFF. If it is ON, the system will send messages when the 
sensor alarm is triggered. 
Alarm-out:  check  it  and  then  the  “Trigger  Alarm-out”  window  will  pop  up  automatically. 
Configure  the  trigger  alarm-out  in  the  window.  The  system  will  trigger  the  alarm-out 
automatically  when  the  sensor  alarm  is  triggered.  You  need  to  set  the  delay  time  and  the 
schedule of the alarm outputs. See 9.5.1 Alarm-out for details. 
Preset: check it and then the “Trigger Preset” window will pop up automatically. Configure the
