HARD ALARM OUTPUT
The Alarm Output provides one open collector transistor alarm output to trigger alarming devices. Upon an Exception,
a VSSI-Pro can be programmed to trigger a VCR to go to its fastest record time, have a Quad go full screen, home a
switcher, trigger a preprogrammed PTZ, or provide visual or audible alarms.
Following are some basic circuit designs to take advantage of the Alarm Output.
