Alarm Setup ALARM SETUP

The digital disk recorder accepts alarm signals supplied from connected devices such as sensors or camera site equipment. The recorder by itself also generates an alarm signal when the preset motion detection is activated. Any alarm signal starts recording with the preset recording mode, field rate, and picture quality specified in the REC MODE menu described earlier. Alarm recording stops when the preset time has elapsed, the alarm [RESET] but- ton on the front panel is pressed, or the ALARM RESET IN is supplied from the connected device. The recorder out- puts an alarm recovery signal from the rear panel.
