MODIFYING A RECORDING SCHEDULE To modify a schedule type: 1. Right-click one of the colored recording bars, and then select “Modify schedule type.
STORAGE SETUP You can configure the recording parameters to meet specific retention, resolution, and recording rate targets through the Recording Storage screen (refer to Figure 55). Enter a desired retention target and allow the system to modify the rate and resolution to achieve that retention target, or lock specific aspects to see the expected days of storage.
CAMERA SETTINGS For a high priority camera, you may want to increase the resolution and frame rate to values higher than the global settings. To save space, you may want to reduce the resolution and frame rate for low-priority cameras. After making a camera-specific adjustment, select the check box to lock that value in place. This prevents that camera's configuration from being reset the next time you make a change to a global setting.
ALARMS SETUP The DVR5100 provides one alarm input for each camera. The alarm inputs can be configured separately. Alarms are not displayed in the Alarm Received pop-up window until the specified alarm input is configured. To monitor and respond to alarms, you must be assigned a role that includes access to the service. The DVR5100 offers 16 alarm inputs for external signaling devices, such as door contacts or motion detectors.
SUPERVISED ALARMS When an alarm is configured as a supervised alarm, the DVR5100 maintains a constant electrical current through the alarm circuit (5.0 VDC, 10 kohms), including a 10 kohms resistor. If the resistance changes, due to an electrical short or a bypass, the voltage fluctuates from its normal state. Therefore, the unit triggers an alarm. Figure 57 illustrates the alarm and no alarm conditions of a supervised alarm input.
Figure 60 illustrates the wiring configuration for unsupervised alarm inputs. NORMALLY CLOSED NORMALLY OPEN Figure 60. Unsupervised Alarm Input Wiring SETTING UP OR RENAMING ALARMS The Alarm List pane contains Alarm 01–Alarm 16.
