About the EVENT EDIT window
The EVENT EDIT window allows you to have
other cameras trigger
the camera you are
configuring, to record as an event. For
example, you can tell the system to have
camera 1 record, when there is video loss in
camera 3. Likewise, you can tell camera 1 to
record as an event when there is motion
detected in camera 5.
To configure the EVENT EDIT window:
1. Configure the following:
• ALARM I
N: Select the Alarm In devices
that, when triggered, will cause the camera
you are configuring to record as an event.
• MOTION: Set the camera (i.e. Camera A)
that you want to trigger the system to
record when the camera (Camera A)
detects motion. For example, if you are
configuring channel 1, and enter channel 8
in the motion column, this tells the system
that when a motion event occurs in channel
8, it will cause channel 1 to record, and
mark the recorded video as an event.

VLOSS: Select the channels to monitor for
Video Loss. For example, by default, all of
the VLOSS settings are selected. This
means that if any of the cameras are
disconnected (i.e. if a vandal cuts a camera
wire), it will trigger an event recording on
the camera you are currently configuring.
