Buzzer settings
When an alarm is triggered by the system or a camera, the recorder can be set up to

buzzer sounds for both system and camera alarm. For example, when a physical alarm
input is continuously triggered, the buzzer will time out after the time specified.

system and camera alarms. Select Mute, 5 s, 10 s, 20 s, 30 s, 60 s, 120 s, 240 s, or
Constant. Default is Constant.
Event notification
You can select the alarm and event notifications to be included in the event hint icon of
the alarm center displayed in live view. Clicking the icon opens the window of the alarm
center that lists the detected alarm and event notifications. See “Status information” on
page 28 for information on the status icon displayed in the OSD.
