Unsupervised Alarms

When an alarm is configured as an unsupervised alarm, the camera only activates an alarm when the normal alarm state (open or closed)
changes.
Figure 12 illustrates the alarm and no alarm conditions of an unsupervised alarm input.

Figure 13 illustrates the wiring configuration for unsupervised alarm inputs.
