Alarm host setup
If an alarm host is set, the recorder sends a signal to the host when an alarm is
triggered. An example of an alarm host is the TruVision Navigator server. Note that
alarm host applications need to have the TruVision recorder SDK implemented in order
to successfully receive notifications from the recorder.
To set up an alarm host:
1. From the menu toolbar, click
Alarm & Event Setup
>
Alarm Host Setup
.
2. Enter Alarm Host IP and Alarm Host Port values.
