4.6.5 Exception Alarm Settings
Programming Exceptions
EXCEPTIONS are situations of special inter-
est that you can program into your Inter-Check
ICI1000S Series unit. They are used to alarm
your VCR or other alarmable devices when a
certain condition has been met. Exceptions can
also be directly printed to an external printer.
Exception flagging will save you valuable time
reviewing VCR tapes because you have the
ability to view only events of specific interest.
