VCR System Setup
The VCR System Setup screen provides optional settings when connecting a VCR with the
multiplexer.
VCR Input: A VCR connects to the multiplexer using the BNC or SVHS connections.
Set the VCR Input option to the type of connection used.
External Trigger: Set to OFF when not using the VCR synchronizing trigger pulse.
When using the VCR’s synchronizing trigger pulse, set to match the VCR’s signal by
sel for positive edge sensing and – for negative edge sensing.
Panic Rec Buzzer: When set to ON, a buzzer sounds every 20 seconds. Setting this
option to OFF disables the buzzer.
VCR Type: Selecting this brings up a list of VCRs. Select the VCR you are using from
the list. If it is not listed select the User Define option. The VCR model numbers
available to choose from are listed below.

Normal Record / Alarm Record: If a VCR is selected from the list, the user must set
the Hour for the Normal and Alarm Record options. If User Define is selected, both the
Hour and the Field options must be set. The setting for the Hour ranges from 001 to 960
(1hr to 960 hrs). For Field, the setting ranges from 001 to 480.
Although you can set Normal and Alarm hours the same, you usually want higher quality
video in an alarm situation. For example, you might set Normal to 24-hour time-lapse
(024) and Alarm to 2-hr mode (002).
