The “full duplex” means to record multiple cameras and playback synchronously. 6.1 RECORD The multiplexer can support general VCR or time-lapse VCR recorder. (a) TO RECORD USING EXTERNALTRIGGER SIGNAL FROM TIME-LAPSE VCR: The time-lapse VCR recorder generates a trigger signal from “VCR trigger” to signal multiplexers when it is the time to switch channels. We recommend using this feature when user’s VCR recorder supports this feature.
ARC-19509 7. Alarm Function 7.1 ALARM TYPES There are three kinds of alarm events: (a) Power-on time and date sequence. (b) Video signal loss. (c) Motion has been detected. (d) Trigger by external alarm input. 7.2 RESPONSE TYPES OF ALARM There are four types of responses: (a) Buzzer turns on. (b) Relay turns on. (c) Priority recording when triggered by external alarm input. (d) Alarm list. 7.
