7.3 ALARM CONFIGURATION

Alarm conﬁguration allows the NVR to begin recording based on input from other remote

sensors such as infrared motion detectors or contact alarms which are connected to it.

There are ﬁve submenus; Sensor, Motion, Video Loss, Other, and Alarm Out.

SENSOR

In this window you can setup optional external sensors to cause the NVR to begin recording.

There are three tabs in this window: Basic, Alarm Handling and Schedule.

Basic Tab

This allows you to enable the input from

attached sensors. You can also identify the

sensors by name for ease in determining

location.

Set the alarm type according to whether the

alarm is NO (Normally Open) or NC (Normally

Closed). See your alarm’s manual for details.

Alarms can be individually conﬁgured or

globally set using the All button.

Alarm Handling Tab

Conﬁgure how you want the NVR to handle

the input from an activated alarm. Each

sensor input can be set to launch individual

sequences of action or they may be globally

set through the All button to have the same

results.

Hold Time: determines the time allowed

between consecutive alarm events.

If the alarm is triggered again within

this time, it will be treated as a single

event and the NVR will continue

recording before stopping.

Trigger: This is what the NVR will do once

activated by an alarm. Selecting

Setting will open a new window with

three tabs; Alarm, To Record, To

PTZ

Alarm allows you to set whether a

buzzer will sound, which camera (if

any) will display in full screen mode,

whether an e-mail will be sent and

whether a signal will be sent via the

ALARM OUT port.
