Alarm
It is an input to the video recording server from external alarm sensors. Alarm can be used to detect many
events occur at the surveillance area, such as fire and illegal entering by someone. The alarm event
supports BS 8418:2003 which has arm/disarm and security switch functions.
Sensor Tamper Type
Alarm tamper event will be triggered if someone cuts the wire between the alarm input and the video
recording server. This event behaves as fire zone type that can be triggered once the wire is being cut.
Alarm tamper type has choice of none, SEOL and DEOL.
Sensor Type
If the alarm sensor input circuit type is normal close (NC), when the state of the circuit is opened, it
indicates alarm trigger of TeleEye GX, while nothing happens when the state of the circuit is closed. If the
alarm sensor input circuit type is normal open (NO), when the state of the circuit is closed, it indicates
alarm trigger of TeleEye GX, while nothing happens when the state of the circuit is open.
Zone Type
All alarm sensors can be associated with zone types if Arm/Disarm input is installed.
- Normal Zone: This zone allows alarms to be triggered after system armed.
- Fire Zone: This zone allows alarms to be triggered no matter which arm state of the
system is, i.e. armed or disarmed. It is suitable for installation of fire
detectors
- Entry/Exit Zone: This zone allows user to set the delay time for entering or leaving the
surveillance area without triggering any alarm event. If alarm recording
action is enabled, recording starts at entry or exit time throughout the delay.
