ACKNOWLEDGING AN ALARM OR MOTION EVENT

The DX4104 allows you to manually acknowledge an event state that has activated a relay output. By default, the DVR’s output relay is turned off when the post-alarm time expires. Acknowledging an alarm or motion event does not end alarm or motion event recording. The post-alarm time determines the time period for alarm recording. For information about configuring the relay off setting, refer to Relay Output Setup on page 41.

For information about configuring the post-alarm time, refer to Schedule Menu on page 34.

The acknowledge alarm feature supports the following actions:

Sound alert: An audible signal from the unit when an unacknowledged event occurs.

Visible indicator An indicator in the camera pane that appears for the length of time set by the post-alarm time.

Remote notification: Mail notification and emergency notification to alert remote users that an event has occurred.
