Remote alarm host setup
If a remote alarm host is set, the NVR sends a signal to the host when an alarm is
triggered. The remote alarm host must have the TruVision Navigator server software
installed.
To set up a remote alarm host:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Network Settings > More Settings.
2. Enter Alarm Host IP and Alarm Host Port values.
Alarm host IP represents the IP of the remote PC where the Network Video
Surveillance software installed. The alarm host port value must be the same as
software’s alarm monitor port. Up to three alarm hosts can be set. For each alarm
host, the default port is 5001, 5004, and 5003.
