Parameter
Description
Name
Enter a name (max 20 characters) to describe the alarm.
It is recommended to use a description that is meaningful and relevant.
Profile
Select an alarm profile. This alarm profile defines the behaviour of the
input.
Alarm Hold time
This sets the minimum time of activation of the alarm (in seconds). End-
of-alarm will only be detected after this delay. This parameter will
suppress a flow of events caused by a rattling alarm contact.
Cameras
Select the desired cameras. Choose cameras that might reveal important
information about the event.
Camera view style
Select the video information that should be available to the CMS.
 Live video: the CMS can open a connection with the site to watch live
images on the relevant cameras;
 Quad: the CMS can retrieve pictures from the video system (3 stills are
stored on the video system, taken from the relevant camera, with an
adjustable interval);
 Duress: both live images and pictures are available.
To set the time between successive pictures, choose System > Behaviour > Input/Output Behaviour and
select the desired interval in the Quad image interval (s) box. The value is expressed in seconds.
Caution!
This quad interval setting applies to all cameras, and therefore to all applications. Different
applications may have different ideal quad intervals. For intrusion detection, you may require a
short interval, whereas for smoke verification you may want a longer interval. In this case, you
have to find a compromise that yields acceptable results for all applications. Always test the
selected setting.
Arm/Disarm input
Tick this option if the input is used to arm and disarm the system.
Mode select input
Tick this option if the input is used to switch the video system to a defined operation
mode (see Operational Mode with Manual Selection on page 64). The mode of
operation affects the behaviour of video recording!
