Alarm and event settings
Alarms are all notifications related to either physical alarm inputs on recorders and
cameras or anything that does not work as expected: device errors, network issues,
and video loss.
Alarm input settings
The encoder can be configured to record when an alarm is triggered by an external
alarm device (for example, PIR detector, dry contacts…). They are the physical inputs
on the IP cameras and recorder.
To configure alarm inputs:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Configuration and then Remote Configuration >
Alarm & Event Setup > Alarm Input. The Alarm Input window appears.
2. Select the alarm input number.
3. Select the alarm input type, NO or NC.
4. Click the Arming Schedule tab and set the arming schedule for the alarm input.
Click the timeline of the desired day. A pop-up appears that lets you enter the start
and end times of the arming schedule for that day. Alternatively, you can also
manually modify the length of the green timeline to the desired times.
Click to copy the schedule to other days or to the whole week.
