4.3 Actions on alarms
For each alarm a pair of actions have been defined, to make alarm management more flexible:
x action to switch videos
x action to reposition telemetry.
4.3.1 Action to switch videos
When there is an alarm event, the camera corresponding to the active alarm number is normally offered to all
monitors enabled for acknowledge: camera 1 corresponds to alarm 1, camera 2 to alarm 2 etc.
If it is necessary to switch a different video input from the standard, it is possible to request differentiated
switching using the action on alarm.
The screen for configuring each alarm shows a summary of the corresponding action:
[ALARM NO.1 5]
[----------------------------]
[ 1.Type: Normally Open ]
[ 2.Reset: Cont ]
[ 3.Relay activation: YES ]
[ 4.Buzzer activation: NO ]
[ 5.Acknowledge: 1,2,3,4 ]
[ 6.Action: CO4:MO2,R01:P03 ]
[ ]
[INC.Next Alarm ]
[DEC.Previous Alarm ]
[SEQ.End ]
C04:M02 means that, in the event of alarm 1, camera 4 is
switched to monitor 2.
The script C--:M-- means that the video switching action is
not used and normal operation therefore is expected.
4.3.2 Action to reposition telemetry
If control of a telemetry line on the Aux line is provided, it is possible to reposition a pan & tilt or a dome on a
particular preset position in the event of an alarm:
[ALARM NO.1 5]
[----------------------------]
[ 1.Type: Normally Open ]
[ 2.Reset: Cont ]
[ 3.Relay activation: YES ]
[ 4.Buzzer activation: NO ]
[ 5.Acknowledge: 1,2,3,4 ]
[ 6.Action: CO4:MO2,R01:P03 ]
[ ]
[INC.Next Alarm ]
[DEC.Previous Alarm ]
[SEQ.End ]
R01:P03 means that, in the event of alarm 1, pan & tilt/dome
number 1 is repositioned to preset position 3.
The script R--:P-- means that the telemetry repositioning
action is not used.
