About Alarm Overlays
You can define special alarm-overlay subtitles
to appear on camera images whenever an
alarm is triggered externally (hardwired inputs),
or when motion is detected at each selected
camera.
Tip: Alarm overlay text will alternate with regular
subtitles (of the same subtitle number) until the
overlay expires. These can also be cleared by
pressing Ctrl-Alt-Spacebar to return to the regular
subtitles.
Also See: 16.1.3 [Subtitle Setter] (Custom Titles
for Cameras)
Note: This feature works only in conjunction with
alarm-based recording (motion-detection and/or via
an external input for each camera).

subtitles (of the same subtitle number) until the
overlay expires (as per "Post Alarm Display" setting,

Ctrl-Alt-Spacebar to return to the regular subtitles.
