ASSIGNING CAMERAS TO ALARMS
Sixteen alarm inputs are available on DVXi systems (on DVXi XM16 and DVXi
XM32 systems, the alarms are wired through XMUX). The Alarms tab on the
Setup page allows you to associate cameras with alarms and set up what should
happen when trigger events occur.
To name an alarm input, select it from the Alarm drop-down list. By default, alarm
input names are based on the alarm input number. After you select the alarm input,
click on its name in the Alarm field and enter a new name. No matter what you
name the alarm input, its location appears in the box below the Alarm field when
you select the input.
