Field Description
notifications. Include a text message in the e-mail, but do not
attach any images to the message.
• Text & image: When a video-lost event is detected, send e-
mail notifications that include both a text message and a
picture of the first frame of the event.
Note: E-mail messages are sent to the recipients specified in the SMS
and E-mail screen, in the format defined there (see
SMS and E-mail
Notifications
, page 81).
Note: If AVV is selected, Text & image is automatically selected for
this field. A single e-mail containing both the standard notification text
and the AVV notification is sent at the beginning of each event. In
addition, a text-only e-mail is sent when the file transfer is completed.
Note: If AVV was once selected, and has since been cleared, Text &
image remains selected for this field until the selection is changed
manually. If it is not changed, AVV is not activated, but notifications
with snapshots are sent at the beginning of each event.

Activator 2
Select the action that each activator should perform when a video-lost
event begins:
• Turn on: Set the activator line to “high.”
• Turn off: Set the activator line to “low.”
• None: Do not change the activator’s setting.
Note: For additional information about working with activators, see
Sensor and Activator Settings , page 115.
Go To Preset All PTZ cameras connected to the MVG 400 are listed below this
heading. If you want one of these cameras to automatically aim at a
preset location when a video-lost event begins, beside the name of
the camera, select the number of the preset location.
Note: Preset locations are defined and assigned numbers using a
client application such as the MultiClient. For additional information,
please refer to the relevant client application guide.
Note: If no PTZ cameras are connected to the unit, this field does not
appear.
2. Under On Video Restored, select the actions that the MVG 400 should perform when a
video-lost event ends – when the MVG 400 begins to receive a video signal from the
camera again – as described above.
Video Recording Settings
The MVG 400 can record a video stream from each camera connected to it. Each stream is
called a “recorder.” Creating a recorder allocates space on the hard drive of the MVG 400 unit
