Monitor A switches to multiscreen view. The lost camera signal is displayed as a black cameo with the video loss message. The border around the camera with the video loss is red. An alarm status message is displayed.

Monitor B: Sequenced display of cameras that do not have video loss.

The alarm beeper sounds.

The video loss and the indicators flash.

If the camera with video loss is visible, the black cameo and the video loss message continue to be displayed as long as there is no video present.

If an alarm is not acknowledged, the beeper switches off after the dwell time but the alarm still needs to be acknowledged.
