ALARM INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
This section allows you to configure the alarm event capability of the monitor and also
control the actions of the DVR should an alarm event take place.
An alarm event can be created in a number of ways.
Motion
The monitor can detect movement changes in the images being captured via
detection
it’s own software. Each channel can be configured to create alarm events
via on-screen movement (Enable). The area of detection can be defined to
specific areas on screen (Region), default is full screen, and sensitivity can
be adjusted to avoid false triggering. Motion detection triggers can then be
configured to create an alarm output or start recording sessions on an of
the channels, show a message on screen or send an e-mail alert.
Video Blind
The monitor can detect failing light conditions on specific channels which
would creat a poor quality image, this could include lights being turned off
or even covering the camera by accident or on purpose by an intruder.
Sensitivity and actions following a trigger event can be configured.
Video Loss
Damaged or severed cables, failure of power supply or damage to a camera
can all cause a video loss event. Actions following a video loss event can
be configured.
Alarm Input
Additional alarm devices such as PIR detectors, magnetic contacts or panic
attack buttons can be used to trigger actions via the alarm inputs on the
rear panel of the monitor. Detector inputs can be set as normally open or
normally closed to suit. Actions following an alarm event can be configured.
