The actions are separated into two pages. Navigate between them by highlighting ‘Next Page’ and

pressing the or button.

Create Database Entry

Enable this option to log VMD activity in the Event List.

Change Record Rate

This allows the record rate to be switched to the alarm rate when VMD is active. The options

available are:

• Standard - switches cameras enabled for standard recording to the alarm record rate.

• Variable - switches cameras enabled for variable recording to the alarm record rate.

• Both - applies to both the variable and standard recording of the selected camera.

Report VMD Activity

A VMD activity trigger can be reported via an telnet message. If this option is enabled, the ‘Remote

Reporting’ settings must be correctly congured.

Create Zone Input

This turns the VMD camera into an alarm input for use in the Alarm Zones page. Select VMD XX

(where XX is the camera number) instead of an alarm input to trigger the event.

Record Still Image

This will save an additional still image as close to the event as possible alongside the normal video

recordings of the event.

The still image is accessed via the ‘Live’ page of the web viewing interface, where it appears in the

regular sequence of normal recordings.
