3.6 Alarm Handling Parameters
The parameters in the Alarm Handling group are used to select the sources that can declare an
alarm condition and to control the actions that will be taken when an alarm condition is declared.
3.6.1 Alarm Sources Section
The alarm sources section of the alarm handling parameters group is used to select the sources
that can declare an alarm condition.
User Trigger Tab
Digital In Tab
Source Enable - Check the Source Enable box on the User Trigger
tab to enable the user trigger as a source for declaring an alarm
condition.
User Trigger - If the user trigger is enabled as an alarm source, you
can click the User Trigger button to declare an alarm condition.
Source Enable - Check the Source Enable box on the Digital In tab
to enable the use of the camera I/O ports as a source for declaring
an alarm condition. If a properly configured port becomes active, an
alarm condition will be declared.
For this function to work correctly, the Direction parameter must be
set to "Input" on the I/O port you want to use as a source for
declaring an alarm, and the Function parameter for that port must be
set to "Alarm Trigger" or to "Real-time Trigger". See Section 3.9 on
page 57 for more information about setting the camera’s I/O port
parameters.
Note that more than one port can be set to act as a source for
declaring an alarm (i.e., multiple ports could be set to "Input" with the
function set to "Alarm Trigger", or one port could be set to "input"
with the function set to "Alarm Trigger" and a second port set to
"Input" with the function set to "Real-time Trigger"). In this case,
checking the Source Enable box will allow any one of the properly
configured ports to declare an alarm.
