(Alarm recording) During alarm recording, pre-
alarm recording is performed at the picture grade
of Super regardless of the setting. And for only
the cameras used for alarm recording, pre-alarm
recording is performed at the alarm recording rate.
iii)To perform with alarm recording:
Set the Alarm Mode to Alarm Plus.
Pre-alarm recording is performed at the picture
grade of Super regardless of the setting and at
the recording rate set for alarm recording.
Pre-alarm recording is executed with the recording
rate of the normal or alarm recording set for that time
period and with the picture grade of Super.
step6. Set the alarm recording time in Post-Alarm
Duration.
Manual: Continues alarm recording until the
ALARM IN terminal is not grounded.
step7. Set the recording camera for each sensor connected.
Display the overview screen to check the settings
of all the sensors.
The multiple camera numbers can be set for one
sensor input.
step8. Set the trigger of alarm recording for each sensor
connected.
External & MD-A: Starts alarm recording when the
motion A is detected while the ALARM IN terminal
is grounded.
External & MD-B: Starts alarm recording when the
motion B is detected while the ALARM IN terminal
is grounded.
External: Starts alarm recording only when the
ALARM IN terminal is grounded.
External / MD-A: Starts alarm recording when the
ALARM IN terminal is grounded or the motion A is
detected.
External / MD-B: Starts alarm recording when the
ALARM IN terminal is grounded or the motion B is
detected.
MD-A: Starts alarm recording only when the motion
A is detected.
MD-B: Starts alarm recording only when the motion
B is detected.
RS: Starts alarm recording when the command is
sent via RS-232C or LAN.
When setting the trigger to MD-A, MD-B, External
/ MD-A, External / MD-B, External & MD-A, or
External & MD-B, the motion detection function
becomes active immediately after exiting <Set
Recording Pattern A to D>. To stop the input of alarm
signals, set the Alarm Input setting in the
<Recording> menu to Off.
step9. Set the PTZ camera preset.
When the alarm input set on step 8 is input, the
camera corresponding to the sensor number
adjusts its angle to the preset point set on this
step.

Alarm recording
When alarm recording or emergency recording is input
during timer recording, the end time of the timer
recording is extended until the alarm recording or the
emergency recording is completed.
When the alarm recording trigger is set to External /
MD-A or External / MD-B, the priority is given to
the latest alarm input.
When the alarm recording trigger is set to External /
MD-A or External / MD-B, and the alarm recording
time is set to Manual, the alarm recording stops 2
seconds after the motion detection is input even if
the ALARM IN terminal is grounded. (When the alarm
recording time for this recording according to the
motion detection is set to Manual, the actual
recording time is 2 seconds.)
When power failure occurs during alarm recording or
emergency recording, the alarm recording or
emergency recording is cancelled after returning from
the power failure.
Frame recording and field recording
In PAL signal system, one picture is consist of two
screens, odd and even. The unit records only the
screen of odd in case of field recording. In case of
frame recording, both of the screens (odd and even)
are recorded.
Frame recording is suitable for storing the data in the
high picture quality, however, the data capacity is twice
as large as that of the field recording of the same
picture grade (1 frame = 2 fields). The picture may be
looked like vibrating as one picture is consisted by
two screens.

Alarm Input

This item is used to stop the alarm input manually. When
setting Alarm Input to Off, the alarm input is stopped for
5 minutes. When setting the <Recording> menu while the
alarm recording occurs continuously, stop the alarm input
first to stop recording. Alarm Input function is available
for ALARM IN terminal on the rear panel, motion detection,
emergency recording, and communication port. To cancel
the prohibition of alarm input manually, set it to On or exit
the <Recording> menu. It is cancelled automatically after
5 minutes.
