The DVR can be set to react to video loss differently for each
camera. Each camera can be associated with another camera,
trigger an Alarm-Out connector, sound the DVR’s internal
buzzer, notify a number of different devices, and/or move
PTZ cameras to preset positions.
Highlight the box under the Record heading and press the
button. A list of cameras appears. You can associate as many
cameras with that camera as you wish. If the DVR detects
video loss on the selected camera, it starts recording video
from all the associated cameras.
NOTE: For the Record action, the camera you select
should be set to the Event or Time & Event
recording mode in the Record Schedule setup
screen.
Highlight the box under the Alarm-Out heading and press the button. A list of Alarm Outputs appears. You can
associate as many Alarm-Outs with that camera as you wish. When the DVR detects video loss on the selected camera,
it will trigger output signals on all the associated Alarm-Out connectors. You can also have the DVR’s internal buzzer
sound if video is lost on the selected camera.
NOTE: For the Alarm-Out action, the alarm output and beep you select should be set to the Event mode in the
Alarm-Out setup screen (Schedule tab).
Highlight the box under the Notify heading and press the button. You can toggle the entire list On and Off by
highlighting Notification and pressing the button. You can toggle the individual items On and Off by highlighting
that item and pressing the button. Highlight OK and press the button to accept your changes.
NOTE: For the Notify action, the notify item you select should be enabled in the Notification setup screen and
the DVR should be registered in the Speco Central (Remote Administration System).
