(c) Alarm Recording
Alarm recording allows you to increase the recording time of the DVR, as it will only start
recording when the PIR etc picks up any movement.
Connect the alarm input device to the DVR according to the device connection i.e. Normally
Open or Normally Closed detector.
Set the correct setting in the menu to start Alarm recording. See details at Menu>System
setting>Alarm setting
(d) Video Motion Detection (VMD) recording
Motion detection recording will also increase the recording time of the DVR, as it will only start
the DVR recording when it picks up any movement.
Points to consider when using Video Motion Detection: - It is important to remember that the
DVR’s VMD circuits look for movement in the camera’s picture, therefore if it is so dark that the
camera cannot see any movement nor will the VDM circuits. However, if you were using VMD
in a darkened room as soon as the light is turned on, the VDM would cause the DVR to record, as
the change in light would be seen as movement. When you are using the VDM with external
cameras, sudden changes of bright sunlight to cloud over may cause the VDM circuits to trigger
the DVR. With this in mind outdoor use of VDM needs careful planning.
In order for VDM to trigger the DVR you need to turn off 24 hour recording on the channel that
requires VDM, ensuring that you do this for each day. Now you can turn VMD on.
Set up the required times and required motion detection setting in the menu. See details at
Menu>System setting>Motion detection
5.3 Alarm output
The alarm output can be used to control an external device such as a buzzer to tell the user that
that the unit has been alarmed. Or it allows you to remotely control a floodlight e.g. you could
turn the light on/off from the other side of the world.
The alarm output is directly proportional to the length of the recording time. After an alarm
activation the unit will record for a user defined length of time and the output relay will be
latched for the same period of time. So if the recording is set at 30secs, the alarm output will be
active for 30secs.
See details Menu>System setting>Alarm setting
5.4 Pan-tilt control operation

PTZ equipment from the DVR, using the Remote Controlled Unit provided or you can operate it
over a network connection.
Confirm the correct connection of the PTZ and the decoder then set the correct decoder address.
You should enter the corresponding protocol of the PTZ equipment that you are using, from the
