A more detailed description of the various tabs that appear on the Alarm Setup interface (Picture 34) are as follows, along with a more thorough account of the options associated with the pull-down menus associated with them:

•The I/O STATUS tab allows you to choose from a drop down list to configure each Channel’s sensor alarm settings. Choose the “Normal-Open” option on the drop down list or “Normal-Close” depending on the type of sensor you are using. Choose the “Off” option if you are not using external alarm sensors and are using the DVR’s built in motion detection. Using your DVR’s built in motion detection settings allow you to begin recording in the event motion is detected.

Motion detection alarm notification is designed to notify you that there has been some movement detected by your cameras. You can adjust the sensitivity of your cameras to suit the needs of your actual application environment should you need to take into account such things as movement that is ongoing and not obtrusive.

•The HDD LOSS tab allows you to choose from a drop down list of “On” and “Off”. Choosing the “On” option will generate an alarm buzzer when the connection to your HDD has been lost, your system does not detect a connected HDD or your system detects that your HDD needs to be formatted. Choosing the “Off” option turns this buzzer notification off.

The HDD Loss alarm notification is designed to notify you when your system has its connection with your HDD or that there is some sort of breach which has occurred between your HDD and your DVR system.

•The HDD SPACE tab allows you to choose from a drop down list of “On” and “Off”. Choosing the “On” option will generate an alarm buzzer when the HDD is running out of storage space. Choosing the “Off” button disables the alarm notification when your HDD is running out of storage.

•The VIDEO LOSS button allows you to choose from a drop down list of “On” and “Off”. Choosing the “On” option will generate an alarm buzzer when video loss occurs. Choosing the “Off” button disables the alarm notification when video loss occurs.

A Video Loss notification is designed to notify you that there has been some sort of breach that has occurred that is causing your system to lose video feed such as camera damage, disconnected camera cables or a power supply malfunction.
