9.1 Sensor Alarm
To complete the entire sensor alarm settings, you should enable the sensor 
alarm of each camera and then set up the alarm handling of each camera.
The configuration steps of the above mentioned alarm linkages are as follows.
Duration: it refers to the interval time between the adjacent motion detections. 
For instance, if the duration time is set to 10 seconds, once the system detects a 
motion, it will go to alarm and would not detect any other motion (specific to 
camera) in 10 seconds. If there is another motion detected during this period, it 
will be considered as a continuous movement; otherwise it will be considered as 
a single motion.
Record:  check  it  and  then  the  “Trigger  Record”  window  will  pop  up 
automatically (you can also click the “Configure” button to pop up the window). 
Select camera on the left side and then click   to set the camera as the trigger 
camera. Select trigger camera on the right side and then click   to cancel the 
trigger camera. Click the “OK” button to save the settings. The trigger cameras 
will record automatically when the sensor alarm is triggered.
Snapshot:  check  it  and  then  the  “Trigger  Snapshot”  window  will  pop  up
automatically. Configure the trigger camera in the window. The trigger cameras 
will snap automatically when the sensor alarm is triggered.
Push: check it and choose ON or OFF. If it is ON, the system will send messages 
when the sensor alarm is triggered.
Alarm-out:  check  it  and  then  the  “Trigger  Alarm-out”  window  will  pop  up 
automatically. Configure  the trigger  alarm-out in  the window.  The system will 
trigger the alarm-out automatically when the sensor alarm is triggered. You 
need to set the delay time and the schedule of the alarm outputs. See 9.5.1
