Connecting Motion / Alarm Device - Appendix #2
Motion detection and Alarm controls are enabled through the Menu system on the Observation System.
Additional motion sensor devices can be connected to the system (Motion Sensors, Door/Window
Sensors).
A motion detection or sensor unit can be used to send a signal to the Observation System to begin
camera viewing on the matching Video Channel (when enabled in the “Setup Menu – Event - Motion”
submenu).
• Example: A Window sensor unit has been installed on Alarm Block port #4. When this sensor is
activated, the camera on port #4 will become active (if enabled in the MENU on the Observation
System)
Installing a Sensor
1. Connect the GROUND Cable to the GND port on the Alarm Block on the Observation System
2. Connect the SIGNAL Cable to a numbered port (1-8).
To start ALARM RECORDING on the System, refer to the “Setup Menu – Event – Alarm-In” submenu for
menu configuration.
