About Alarm Overlays
You can define special alarm-overlay subtitles
to appear on camera images whenever an
alarm is triggered externally (hardwired inputs),
or when motion is detected at each selected
camera.
Tip: Alarm overlay text will alternate with regular
subtitles (of the same subtitle number) until the
overlay expires. These can also be cleared by
pressing
Ctrl-Alt-Spacebar
to return to the regular
subtitles.

for Cameras)
Note: This feature works only in conjunction with
alarm-based recording (motion-detection and/or via
an external input for each camera).
