6.1.5 ALARM OUT
Note: An alarm-out device (such as a buzzer) should be connected to a camera first for this function to
take effects. To configure the alarm-out device connected to the recorder itself, please refer to
“6.11.4 LOCAL ALARM OUT” at page 47.
This function is used when the external alarm-out device is connected to a camera. You can configure an
alarm-out device to activate continuously or activate only for a period of time when it’s triggered.
In RESTORE AUTOMATICALLY,
Choose DISABLE to allow the device to activate continuously when it’s triggered unless you switch it off manually
from the alarm-out switch control panel (
) on the live view.
Choose ENABLE to allow the device to activate only for a period of time (1 / 3 / 5 / 10 / 20 / 30 / 60 / 120 / 180
seconds) when it’s triggered.

Set the image size, video quality and other related parameters individually for live display, record streaming and
sub streaming.

a) D.O.R (Depend on record): When this option is checked, the video size, quality and other related
parameters will follow the configurations in RECORD STREAM.
b) PROFILE: Select the video profile pre-defined in your IP cameras. You can directly use the profile setting,
or modify the setting on this page.
c) TYPE: Select the compression format for each channel.
Note: The options selectable for TYPE depend on the camera you’re intended to connect.
d) IMAGE SIZE: Select the image size for each channel.
Note: The options selectable for IMAGE SIZE depend on the camera you’re intended to connect.
e) QUALITY: Select the video quality for each channel. The higher the value, the better the image quality.
f) I.P.S.: Image per Second, the higher the value, the more fluent the video.
Note: The options selectable for “I.P.S.” depends on the camera you’re intended to connect.
g) BITRATE (kbps): Select how much data to process per unit of time for each channel. The higher the
value, the better the video quality.
h) BITRATE CONTROL: Configure the upper bit rate limit for the selected channel if necessary.
VBR - When the bit rate of the camera exceeds the value you set, the video fluency may be affected;
CBR - When the bit rate of the camera exceeds the value you set, the image quality may be affected.

bandwidth for transmission, and the poorer the image quality.
