VCR Alarm Record Time
This menu allows you to set the recording speed of the VCR
when an alarm is triggered (1–999 hours). The VCR changes
to this speed when alarm input is received.
NOTE: If you connect pin 37 on the Simplex alarms connec-
tor to the VCR, you don’t need to set VCR RECORD
TIME or VCR ALARM RECORD TIME.
If your VCR provides a timing signal (it may be called vcr trig-
ger input, sync pulse input or clock) connect pin 37 on the Sim-
plex alarms connector to the VCR. The Simplex then sends
images at a rate matching the VCR speed. See your VCR
manual for details.
The default setting for VCR ALARM RECORD TIME is 024
HRS.
When you are finished with this menu, do one of the following:
• press VCR VIEW to go to the next menu.
• press FUNCTION+VCR VIEW to save the information and
leave the setup system.
Alarm Duration
This menu allows you to set the minimum alarm time. The
ALARM DURATION setting determines how many seconds the
Simplex remains in the alarm state after an alarm event oc-
curs. See Alarm Recording Control for details.
Set the ALARM DURATION time in seconds using the up and
down arrow buttons. You may enter any setting between 1
and 999 seconds.
The default ALARM DURATION setting is 004 SECS.
When you are finished with this menu, do one of the following:
• press VCR VIEW to go to the next menu.
