4.4 SCHEDULE CONFIGURATION
Configure your camera to record at specific times based on time of day, motion detection or
other sensor input. There are three tabs; Schedule, Motion and Sensor
Schedule Tab
The schedule for automatic recording can be set either of two ways.
1. By highlighting individual hours for specific
days by using the pencil tool in the upper
right of the window. The adjacent eraser
tool removes the highlighting in a block.
Double click on either the pencil or eraser
tool to turn them off. Settings can be
copied and applied to any or all of the
channels and to any other day.
2. Blocks of time to be recorded can also
be set up by double clicking on a field
adjacent to a day. Multiple schedules can
be created and saved with start and stop
times down to the minute. These can then
be applied to multiple days and cameras.
Schedules made in one mode can be altered in the other mode.
Motion Tab
Motion detected during the highlighted hours will cause the DVR to start recording. Setup is
similar to that used in Schedule above. The default mode is for 24/7.
Sensor Tab
This enables the DVR to record based on input from other sensors connected to the DVR. Like
motion detection, it is default scheduled to be able to record at any time. It is also configured
in the same manner as explained under Schedule.

4.5 ALARM CONFIGURATION
Alarm configuration allows the DVR to begin recording based on input from other remote
sensors such as infrared motion detectors or contact alarms which are connected to it.
There are five submenus; Sensor, Motion, Video Loss, Other, and Alarm Out.
SENSOR
In this window you can setup optional external sensors to cause the DVR to begin recording.
There are three tabs in this window: Basic, Alarm Handling and Schedule.
Basic Tab
This allows you to enable the input from
attached sensors. You can also identify the
sensors by name for ease in determining
location.
Set the alarm type according to whether the
alarm is NO (Normally Open) or NC (Normally
Closed). See your alarm’s manual for details.
Alarms can be individually configured or
globally set using the All button.
Alarm Handling Tab
Configure how you want the DVR to handle
the input from an activated alarm. Each
sensor input can be set to launch individual
sequences of action or they may be globally
set through the All button to have the same
results.
Hold Time: determines the time allowed
between consecutive alarm events.
If the alarm is triggered again within
this time, it will be treated as a single
event and the DVR will continue
recording before stopping – unless,
of course, a subsequent alarm is
activated within the hold time.
Trigger: This is what the DVR will do once
activated by an alarm. Selecting
Setting will open a new window with
three tabs; Alarm, To Record, To
PTZ
Alarm allows you to set whether a
buzzer will sound, which camera (if
any) will display in full screen mode,
whether an e-mail will be sent and
whether a signal will be sent via the
ALARM OUT port.
