5.4.4 VIDEO LOSS ALARM
The DVR supports a Video Loss Alarm function which allows an Alarm Event to occur
when a camera loses its signal. The lost signal can be due to Power failure to the
camera, the camera cable being cut or unplugged, or the camera being damaged in
some way.
In order to use Video Signal Loss detection, cameras must either be turned ON or
OFF. This is because the DVR needs to know which cameras it should expect to
receive signals from. To turn camera(s) ON, open Frame Setup, and set the Frames
Per Second to anything above zero. By designating zero frames per second the
camera will not be used by the DVR.
