When selected, the specified alarm input operates in the supervised alarm mode. When an

 

 

alarm is configured as a supervised alarm, the DVR5100 maintains a constant electrical

 

Supervised

current through the alarm circuit (5.0 VDC, 10 kohm), including a 10-kohm resistor. If the

Disabled

 

resistance changes, due to an electrical short or a bypass, the voltage fluctuates from its

 

 

normal state, causing the unit to trigger an alarm.

 

 

 

 

 

Assigns the alarm severity for a particular alarm input. Alarm severity determines the type of

 

Severity

alarm (Minor [default], Normal, Major, Critical) that is broadcast when an alarm condition is

Minor

 

triggered. This, in turn, determines which users receive an alarm notification.

 

 

 

 

Polarity

Controls how long an alarm state remains engaged. When selected, this option causes the

 

 

alarm state to follow the input instead of being controlled by the dwell time. In this case, the

state is engaged until the door is closed.

Additionally, the DVR5100 features customizable recording settings. Users can choose from various recording modes – continuous, scheduled, or event-triggered – to best suit their surveillance needs. The inclusion of motion detection technology further enhances its functionality, allowing the system to capture footage only when activity is detected, thus conserving storage space and reducing the clutter of non-critical recordings.

The user interface of the DVR5100 is designed with simplicity in mind, offering intuitive navigation through its menus and settings. This ease of use is complemented by comprehensive search features, enabling quick retrieval of recorded videos based on time, date, or event type.

In summary, the Pelco DVR5100 is a robust digital video recorder that excels in providing high-quality surveillance capabilities, advanced compression technologies, and user-friendly features.
