Note
• Be sure to perform date and time settings before recording. (Refer to p. 14; "Clock Settings".)
• Be sure to set the Alarm Recording Setting’s Alarm Setting to "VALID" when performing Alarm Recording.
This places the Digital Video Recorder in alarm standby mode.
• The setting is factory-preset to "VALID."
1. A buzzer is sounded and the Buzzer stop key flashes red when an alarm signal is received. At the same
time, the Recording key lights red and recording is started. The
Buzzer stop key continues flashing red during Alarm Recording.
• If "DISP" has been selected in Screen Display Settings, setting data is
displayed on the monitor, and the "ALARM" indication is displayed for
recording status.
• Pressing the Buzzer stop key during buzzer output stops the buzzer.
Whether or not to sound a buzzer can be set by selecting ON or OFF
in Alarm Recording Settings.
• Alarm Recording provides an open collector signal from the Alarm
Output Terminal. An alarm output duration can be set to "1 SEC" or
"DURING REC" in Alarm Recording Settings.
2. Recording stops when the end of the Preset Alarm Recording Period is reached. The illuminated Recording
key extinguishes, however the Alarm Reset key remains lit. To reset Alarm Recording before the Preset
Alarm Dcording Period is started, hold down the Alarm Reset key for at least 1 second.
Note
• Pressing the Recording key ( /) during Alarm Recording resets Alarm Recording, and switches it over to
General Recording. However, the Alarm Reset key continuously lights red to indicate that an alarm has been
activated.
• To extinguish the illuminated Alarm Reset key, hold down the Alarm Reset key for at least 1 second.
• If the Alarm Recording’s Alarm Settings is set to "VAL REC," alarm signals are only accepted while
recording is in progress. Alarm inputs can be only accepted during the necessary surveillance period by
combining both Alarm and Internal Timer recordings.
• If the Alarm Recording’s Alarm Settings is set to "INVALID," any alarm input is not accepted.
• If other alarms are activated during Alarm Recording, the preset alarm time is initialized to make the
recording period longer. In this case, the number of recorded blocks is one.
