Dry Contact
Dry Contacts are two-state (open/closed) input points physically connected to a
CCTV Switch and recognized by their physical address.
The Dry Contacts need to be defined manually. It is recommended that you name
them in a consistent manner for easier use. Refer to
“DVR Naming Conventions” on
page 1-9 for more information.
To add a named Dry Contact and configure alarm options:
1. In the CCTV/AV Configuration window, expand the AV Switches entry.
Click the + by the icon for the AV Switch to which the Dry Contact is
connected. This will display all the items associated with that particular
Switch.
