Trigger Period - This is where you set the
schedule of when you want the NVR
to record motion events. It operates
in the same manner as the Schedule
menu as described in Section
3.4 with six blocks of time that can
be laid out for recording to occur
during a day. Not all blocks have to
be configured or enabled. You can
configure each day individually, or
you can make separate schedules for
week days and weekends.

The Copy and Paste buttons allow you to duplicate a day’s settings on another day while the
Default button returns the NVR to recording Motion Detection events 24/7.
Once you have made your settings, select OK to save them and you will be returned to the
Event menu. Hitting Cancel or right-clicking to exit the menu will not save your changes.
Hold Time – This is the length of time that the NVR will watch for another motion event before
treating a second event as a separate alarm. The delay can be from 0 to 600 seconds
(10 minutes).
Record Continue – The NVR will continue to record for a period after the event has ended.
This can be set to last up to 5 minutes.
Show Message – When this is enabled, the system will bring up the Alarm Status window
whenever an event is detected. You can configure this to display when motion, video
loss or masking is detected.
Alarm Upload – Your NVR can upload an alert message to the FTP server. Please see
Advanced Network Setup in Section 1.2 of the Remote Monitoring Guide
for instructions on setting up the NVR to work with an FTP server.
Send E-mail – E-mail notifications can be sent a single e-mail address. Please see
Advanced Network Setup in Section 1.2 of the Remote Monitoring Guide
for instructions on how to set up the e-mail alerts including recipient address.
Record Channel – When one camera detects an event, you can set the NVR to activate
recording on other cameras.
PTZ Activation – When selected, this will cause a connected Pan-Tilt-Zoom camera to
perform a pre-set action. This would be the first action programmed for the camera in
the PTZ menu. Please see Chapter 5 for instructions on setting up a PTZ camera.
Tour – This will cause the NVR to cycle through selected channels on the display in live view.
Snapshot – The NVR is capable of taking still images which can be sent via e-mail or FTP
(See Advanced Network Setup in Section 1.2 of the Remote Monitoring
Guide for full instructions.)
Buzzer – When selected, the NVR’s internal alarm will sound when an event occurs.
Video Loss
By default, this is enabled. In the event that the NVR detects a loss of signal from a camera,
it will send out a notification or activate other functions based on your settings in the lower
portion of the Event window.
Camera Masking
This is also enabled by default. If the system detects that something has covered a camera, it
will respond based on your settings in the lower portion of the window.
Event Response
The lower portion of the Event window determines what actions the NVR will initiate upon
detection of one of the three event types. Responses to a specific type of event can be
individually tailored to each camera, but the response to different types of events must be set
independently of each other. (ie: The response settings for a motion detection event do not
change the settings for a video loss event – even if you’ve set identical responses.)
