Alarm connections
You can select a number of options determining how the 7700 Series unit responds to alarms. For example,
the unit can automatically connect to a predefined IP address (e.g. of a 7700 Series decoder or a computer
with decoding software).
Connect on alarm:
Select On, to establish a connection automatically to a specified IP address in the event of an alarm.
With the setting of Follows input 1, the 7700 Series unit establishes an automatic connection to a remote
location as long as an alarm signal is present at the alarm input 1.
Number of video receiver addresses:
The 7700 Series unit can store up to 10 IP addresses to contact in response to an alarm. In case of an alarm,
if the first IP address cannot be reached, the others will be tried in sequence until a connection can be
established. Select the contact priority of the IP address here.
