Operation Manual

Step 8: Enter into Schedule tab. The setting steps for schedule for sensor based alarm are similar to normal
schedule setup. You can refer to 5.4.1 Schedule for details. This step is very important for sensor alarm.
Even if you have enabled the sensor alarm for all channels and set up the trigger, you will not see the
result of sensor alarm if no schedule is added.
If you have set schedule for sensor based recording in the same timeline, recordings can also be triggered.
5.5.2 Motion Alarm
Motion includes two sub menus: motion and schedule. The steps to set motion alarm are as follows:
Step 1: Enter into MenuSetupAlarm MotionMotion tab. Refer to Fig 5-19:
Step 2: Enable motion alarm, set alarm hold time which refers to the time till which the system will wait for
further detection of motion. e.g. If the holding time is set to 10 seconds, once the system detects a motion,
it will go into alarm but would not detect any other motion alarm (specific to channel) until 10 seconds. If
there is other motion detected during this period it is considered it as continuous movement, otherwise it
will be considered as a single motion.
