Understanding Exception Trigger Options

When setting up exception handles for such features as motion detection and relay alarms, you can select triggering options to alert you of these exceptions.

The triggering options include:

•Pop-up Image on Monitor: When an alarm is triggered, the local monitor (VGA or BNC monitor) will display an image in Live View mode. This alarm can be configured under the Popup Alarm Image handle method. For alarms that are triggered simultaneously, images will be displayed one at a time every 10 seconds (default dwell time). A different dwell time can be set by going to Menu Settings Display Dwell Time. Once the alarm stops, cycling of the images will also stop and you will be returned to the Live View screen.

•Audio Warning: Trigger an audible beep when exception is detected.

•Notify Surveillance Centre: Sends a signal to remote alarm host when exception is detected (see Configuring Remote Alarm Host Settings on page 77).

•Trigger Alarm Output: Trigger an alarm output when an exception is detected. Alarm output can be configured by following the steps listed in Sensor Alarm Settings.
