Spot Monitor 1 – 4: When set to ON, the Spot Monitor displays the camera with an
alarm condition. When there are multiple alarms, cameras with alarms display
sequentially. When set to OFF, the Spot Monitor’s display does not change during an
alarm condition. (1 AUX on 4-ch unit; 4 AUX on 9-ch and 16-ch units).
Hold Time: The Hold Time setting allows the user to set the alarm actions to last from 1
to 99 seconds. Hold Time is applicable only if the alarm action is set to Timed OUT.
Action: The action options are Timed, Latched, and Trans. When Timed is selected,
the alarm “times out” at the designated hold time unless the user clears it earlier. The
Latched setting means the alarm remains active until the operator acknowledges it. The
Trans (transparent) setting means the alarms are not latched and cannot be cleared by
the user.
Relay: The relay options are: 1, 2, 1&2, and OFF. Selecting the 1 or 2 option sets
either internal relay 1 or 2 to be activated by the alarm. The 1&2 option sets both the 1
and 2 internal relays as active during an alarm. When set to OFF, neither internal relay
is activated by the alarm.
Associated: The associated option allows the user to associate other cameras with the
camera in the alarm condition. Upon selection of this option, the Associated Camera
Setup sub-menu screen appears.
The Associated Camera Setup screen allows the user to associate up to three cameras
with another when an alarm condition occurs. The main camera is displayed in the top
window; the three associated cameras are shown below it. Under each of the
associated cameras is a control bar with the options < (moves the camera selection back
one), ON (turns On the associated camera), and > (moves the camera selection forward
one). The Exit button saves the settings and returns to the Alarm Action Setup menu.
