Table F. Alarm Settings (Continued)

Configuration	Default Setting	Description
Item
Connect	no	The alarm functions would have little effect without
		automatically triggering corresponding actions. Select
		yes for automatic connection to the given IP address.
		The idea is to provide a remote monitoring station with
		live video in case of an alarm.
		This feature can be useful even for many applications
		not related to alarm conditions. One example is a
		video-equipped door entry system: when the doorbell
		is pressed, a contact closes and the connected
		transmitter autonomously connects to a receiver. Full-
		duplex audio can provide verbal communication, while
		the relay output can open the door remotely.
		On receivers, the default alarm connection IP address
		is set to 192.168.0.1 (default IP of transmitter).
Live video	0.0.0.0	Enter the IP address of the transmitter or receiver to
receive IP		be notified in the event of an alarm. If that remote unit
		has a password, enter it in the Remote Password field
		below so the two units can communicate with each
		other.
Remote	empty	If applicable, enter the password to access a
password		transmitter (refer to the Live Video Receive IP field
		above).
Live video	off	Select on if at each restart an active connection
auto connect		should be set up automatically to the IP address
		defined above. Otherwise, select no.
		The auto connect feature guarantees an active
		connection to the given alarm IP address even after
		connection breakdown or network failures. If you
		select auto connect, the network cable can be pulled
		at any time. As soon as the network comes back
		alive, the connection is reinstated. On a receiver, this
		feature is enabled to establish a connection to a
		transmitter automatically.
Send email	off	Select on to send an alarm e-mail in the event of an
		alarm. A person who does not have a video reception
		device can thus be informed via an attached JPEG
		image sent to the predefined e-mail address.
