Holiday Schedule
You can create special schedules that override the regular settings to take into account
holidays or other events.
STEP 1. Like a regular schedule, you must have first selected a channel to schedule.
STEP 2. Click on each section of the date to modify using the up and down arrows.
STEP 3. Once the date has been set, click on Add to add it to the list of dates.
STEP 4. Set the schedule for that date in the normal manner.
STEP 5. You can copy that schedule to other systems or channels using the “Apply Settings
to” area discussed above.
LOCAL ALARM CONFIGURATION
Like Local Schedule Configuration, above, this Local Alarm Configuration allows you to
record events directly onto your computer regardless of what the settings are on the actual
DVR. However, this tab will cause the system to record only when motion is detected or when
video loss occurs.
STEP 1. Select a camera
STEP 2. Select the type of alarm - Motion Detection or Video loss. Both can be used, but
each will type is handled differently and so must be set individually.
STEP 3. Select what activity each type of alarm will trigger - Motion Detection can trigger
an audible alarm on the computer, a flashing notification on the E-Map (discussed later in
Section 4.4) and/or cause the camera - and other cameras to start recording. Video loss can
trigger an audio alarm and/or an E-map notification.
STEP 4. If you have selected Chanel Record as a triggered events, you will be given a list
of cameras that can be set to record when the camera you are configuring detects motion.
Check all those cameras you wish to record when triggered.
STEP 5. Once you have completed configuring a camera, you can copy the settings to other
cameras using the “Apply Settings to” drop-down and pressing Copy.
