8.3 ALARM RECORDING

You can switch from all recording modes to the 2H-96H alarm recording mode by applying an alarm signal to the SET IN (alarm input) terminal on the rear panel.

You can switch to alarm recording by applying the alarm input signal from the alarm sensor during recording in 2H, 6H, L18H, 72H, or 96H.

Set the alarm recording mode and alarm recording period in the Recording Set Up menu. Refer to Section 6.7 for instructions.

The index signal is automatically recorded when alarm recording begins (IN- DEX indicator flashes on the fluorescent display).

To record the index signal, the first 15 seconds of the alarm recording are in 2H or 6H mode.

If another alarm input signal is applied to the SET IN (alarm input) terminal while the index signal is being recorded (for 15 seconds), a new alarm record- ing will not be triggered.
