Note:  It is recommended that the Pre-Alarm option be set to the same value as the Pre-Trigger setting 
in the “Prole Record“ menu. This will ensure successful playback of high quality Pre-Trigger 
images. High quality pre-trigger images will only playback properly if review (playback) starts 
prior to the pre-trigger initiation. 
Alarm Protect sec  This is the minimum time period in seconds (from the start of the 
alarm) that is protected from being overwritten. This time will include 
the alarm trigger, the pulse extension and any post alarm recording. It 
will not include pre-alarm images.
Zone Input Rules
Input  This sets an input or system function as the primary alarm trigger. 
Select from Alarms 1-32, Activity 1-16, Preset 1-16, Disk Low, 
Disk Full, Panic, Archiving Slow, Archiving Fault, Virtual 1-16, and 
Keyword Channel 1-32 (which will trigger the Alarm if any or the 32 
programmed keywords are detected on the selected channel). 
Alarm 24Hr  This option can be enabled for alarms that do not require change at 
any time and are to remain as programmed i.e. Panic Alarm. When 
this is selected, the Set, Unset and Override options are disabled.
Entry Route Zone  This creates deferred alarms along a specied route while the 
entry time is active. This is in compliance with BS8418 (the British 
Standard for remote video reporting centres). Diverting from the entry 
route during the countdown will result in the alarm being triggered 
immediately. This allows staff entry without triggering an alarm prior to 
switching the system to Set mode.
Exit Route Zone  This creates deferred alarms along a specied route while the 
exit time is active. This is in compliance with BS8418 (the British 
Standard for remote video reporting centres). Diverting from the exit 
route during the countdown will result in the alarm being triggered 
immediately. This allows staff to exit without triggering an alarm.
Exit Terminator  This will trigger the exit timer if the system is set. A countdown timer 
will automatically start when the alarm is activated and ensure the 
alarm system is not activated by other specied alarm triggers for the 
Set time i.e. allowing a Guard to exit a building.
Entry Initiator  This will trigger the entry timer if the system is set. A countdown timer 
will automatically start when the ‘primary’ alarm trigger i.e. front door, 
is actioned. This ensures the alarm system is not activated by other 
specied alarm triggers for the set time
Note:  Unset, Set and Override modes may be renamed via Record Settings->Schedule.
