Set up alarm inputs
The recorder can be configured to record when an alarm is triggered by an external
alarm device (for example, PIR detector, dry contacts…).
To set up external alarms:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Alarm & Event Setup > Alarm Input.
2. Select the alarm input number of a camera, which corresponds to the connector on
the back panel of the recorder, and enter the name of the input, if required.
3. Select the alarm input type, NO (normally open) or NC (normally closed). Default is
NO.
4. Check the Enable Alarm Input box and click Actions to set up the rules for the
cameras to be triggered, their alarm schedules, method of alarm notification and
PTZ linking function.
5. Select the cameras to be triggered when an external alarm is detected.
In the Actions window, click the Trigger Channel tab and then select the cameras
to be triggered for recording when an alarm is detected. Only analog cameras can
be selected. Click Apply to save the settings.
