Video Loss
is regarded as a potential alarm event, and is considered to occur any time that the NVR
doesn’t receive an active video signal on any of its inputs.
The default behavior of the NVR, when a channel has no incoming video signal, is simply to display “Video
Loss” in white text on a black background over the associated channel. If you’re not using all the inputs on
your NVR, then some channels will be in “permanent” Video Loss state. Just be sure that you don’t Enable
a video loss action for these channels.
Channel:
Which channel/camera you’d like to set the Video Loss behavior for.
Enable:
Whether the selected channel has video loss monitoring active or not.
Schedule:
Alters when the current
Video Loss Action
will be active.
Action:
The action you’d like the NVR to take when this event occurs. It’s set in the same way as the
Action for any other event.
Alarm: Video Loss - Action
Audio Warning:
The NVR will use its internal buzzer to emit an alarm tone. It sounds like an old computer
indicating an error, or a large truck backing up.
Send Email:
The NVR will send an auto-email alert when the event type you’ve selected occurs.
