Setting
The Mini Speed Dome provides eight alarm inputs and one alarm output (N.O. and N.C) to connect
alarm devices. With this function, the Dome Camera will cooperate with alarm system to catch the
event images. For wiring, please refer to the installation guide and/or qualified service personnel.
Adjustable alarm parameters are listed below.
ALARM PIN
The Dome Camera provides 8 alarm inputs and 1 relay output (1× N.O. and 1× N.C.). Select
an alarm pin which you want to set its alarm-related parameters, and then set its alarm-related
parameters in the Alarm Setting menu. For alarm pin definitions, refer to section 2.6 22-Pin
Connector Definition.
NOTE:
If two or more alarm pins are triggered at the same time, smaller alarm pin number
will have higher priority of being handled. For example, if Alarm-1 and Alarm-3 are triggered
simultaneously, only Alarm-1 will actually be handled.
