PRELIMINARY
SECTION 4: CONFIGURING THE PTZ CAMERA
If multiple alarms with different priorities are triggered at the same time, the dome only responds to the alarm with the
highest priority. If multiple alarms with the same priority are triggered at the same time, then the dome will respond to each
alarm according to the defined alarm sequence.
4.12.1 Configuring alarm parameters
You can set the alarm related parameters including the linkage action interval, alarm duration and dome activity resumption.
1.
Open the alarm parameter configuration menu. Go to

SETTING
2.
Configure the interval of the alarm sequence.
When more than one alarm of the same priority occurs at the same time, the camera will respond to one alarm first and
then respond to the next one after the user-defined interval. You can set the on ALARM SEQUENCE submenu from 1 to 200
seconds.
3.
Configure the alarm rest delay.
If there’s a linkage action has already been triggered by an alarm input, the camera will only respond to the input from the
same channel again after the user-defined reset delay time. This is the rest time that the camera considers an alarm to be
active when it’s physically cleared. You can set the ALARM REST DELAY from 0 to 300 seconds.
4.
Resume the dome activity.
You can set ALARM RESUME to ON to enable the camera to resume its previous activity after the triggered actions finished.
NOTE
•
If the camera is moving when a linkage action is triggered, it will stop at the current position and resume from this position after the
linkage action finishes.
•
The camera can be configured to resume the PTZ positions, focus and iris value.
