Buzzer settings
When an alarm is triggered by the system or a camera, the recorder can be set up to respond
with a warning buzzer. The buzzer time is the time that it takes for the recorder to time-out the
buzzer when a continuous alarm occurs. For example, when a physical alarm input is
continuously triggered, the buzzer will time out after the time specified.
Select
Alarm & Event Setup > Buzzer Settings
and select a buzzer time limit for the system
and camera alarms. Select Mute, 5 s, 10 s, 20 s, 30 s, 60 s, 120 s, 240 s, or Constant. Default
is mute.
Alarm notification types
When setting up the rules for alarm detection, you can specify how you want the recorder to
notify you about an alarm or event. You can select more than one notification type.
Not all notifications types are available for all types of alarms.
You can quickly check the system status by looking at the status LEDs on the front panel.
The alarm notification types are:
•
Full-screen Monitoring
: When an alarm is triggered, the monitor (VGA or HDMI) displays
an image in live view mode. For alarms that are triggered simultaneously, images display
one at a time every 10 seconds (default dwell time). You can set a different dwell time using
the Sequence Dwell Time setting under the Display Settings>Display window. When the
alarm stops, cycling of the images stops and you return to live view mode. This alarm option
must be selected for each channel where it is required.
•

Triggers an audible
beep
when a notification or alarm is detected by
the system or a camera.

picture to NAS or FTP server.
•

notification is detected for an external alarm. See “Types of system alarm notifications” on
page 96 for information on configuring an alarm output.
