7 RECORDING

7-5 Sensor Recording

Sensor recording is executed only when the VCR is in the Stop mode (Stop or Timer Record Standby mode) and an alarm signal is input to the rear panel’s ALARM IN terminal.

Perform the settings for sensor recording in the same way as for "Alarm Recording" on page 33.

The mechanism of the SR-9240E/EK cannot be guaranteed if the sensor recording function is used frequently (100 times/ day or more). If alarm inputs are frequent, use the alarm recording function instead and carry out regular maintenance/ inspection and parts replacement.

[ The normal screen is restored.

Check the time and data shown on the monitor's on- screen display.

If the time and date are not shown on the monitor or if you need to change the display position, use the

When an alarm signal is input to the rear panel's ALARM IN terminal, recording starts automatically in the specified record mode and the AL indication is lit.

After the specified recording duration expires, recording stops and the Stop mode is engaged.

8starts.

To stop sensor recording and clear the AL indication,

9press the [AL/PL RESET] button.

To disable sensor recording, set menu switch <SENSOR REC> to OFF.

During playback, there may be some noise or picture distortion at the point where one sensor recording stops and another starts. This is not a malfunction.
