RELAYS SETUP
The DVR5100 supports up to four relay devices. Use them to trigger external devices. The unit supports both momentary and continuous relay operation, either normally open or normally closed (refer to Figure 61).
You can operate the relay interactively, during an active connection, or automatically to coincide with certain events. Relays work like switches. When triggered, relays can activate an external device such as a siren, light fixture, or door lock. Refer to Table AA on page 75 for more information on relay settings and defaults.
