5.5.8.6.2 Alarm Activation Matrix
Navigate to the alarm setup menu to trigger the activation of the matrix tour ((Main
Menu->Setting->Alarm)).
You can follow the steps listed below to trigger matrix outputs.
Select local alarm
Select a channel from the record channel row
Select a matrix output from the video matrix row.
After selecting the activation channel in the record channel row, you can enable the
video matrix function and then select video output channel. Once the alarm occurs,
the system continues scheduled matrix tour after alarm tour completes. If there is no
scheduled tour available, the matrix will stop at the last activation channel after the
alarm ends.
When there are several alarm inputs at the same time, the situation maybe a little bit
complex. Here is an example.
The system setup is shown as below:
Alarm input 1 can activate channel1/2/3/4/5/6
Alarm input 2 can activate channel 2/3/4/5/6/7/8
Alarm input 1 and alarm input 2 activate video output 1.
So, when there is alarm from channel 1, video output 1 becomes valid. If there is no
alarm from alarm input 2 during the same period, then video output 1 can tour
between channel1/2/3/4/5/6.
When video output 1 goes to channel 3 and there is alarm form channel2, then video
output 1 tour between 4/5/6/7/8/2.
The general principles are:
When the alarm activate, each valid channel alarm input can activate a complete
tour between activation channels.
When there are several alarm inputs in the same video matrix output, the system
video matrix can activate all the channels in the setup.
If the system has toured some activation channels, then corresponding alarm
activation channels are ignored.
