The events reported from individual cameras' digital inputs, digital outputs, and motion detection
can be accommodated in the NVR system's alarm settings. These events will then be reported
or trigger corresponding actions as follows:
1. Reporting events via Email or system buzzer.
2. Triggering video snapshot and text message by the occurrences of events to an FTP site.
3. Triggering the camera(s) for its lens to move to a preset position.
4. Triggering the cameras' digital output.
5. Triggering an event push to VIVOCloud.
You can create up to 10 instances of alarm.
Hardware connections to DIs or DOs, e.g., window sensors, should be made separately. The
motion detection configuration can be made in the Camera configuration window.
