Chapter 7 I/O Central Panel
The I/O Central Panel provides a centrally managing solution for I/O devices from different
hosts. Its major features are:
y Group I/O devices from different hosts
y Trigger I/O devices in cascade mode
y Monitor different I/O cascade configurations at different times of the day
y Provide quick access to triggered I/O devices by a Quick Link window
Note:
1. The Advanced I/O Panel at the client DVR and the I/O Central Panel at the Control
Center can conflict each other. It’s recommended that the client DVR cleans up the
settings in the Advanced I/O Panel and renders the I/O control to the Control Center.
2. The I/O Central Panel only supports GV IP devices.
