Alarm Monitor Overview
The Alarm Monitor software is a utility that streams video across a Local Area Network to
a Client PC when an alarm is detected on the DVR. The video that streams across can
be stopped, played forwards and backwards, in slow motion or real time.
The utility is loaded at startup and placed in the taskbar. It constantly monitors for a
signal from the DVR. When an alarm signal is detected the Alarm Monitor Image Viewer
Window opens and starts playing the video from the camera associated to the alarm.
