Video loss alarm Off If you select On, the signal from the video source (the camera in most cases) is monitored constantly for
interruption. If no signal is received, the NET300 triggers an alarm.
Alarm input 1 Off/High
1. Select On from the pull-down menu if you want to activate an alarm through an external alarm sensor.
2. Select High or Low for the voltage level to activate the alarm.
3. Enter a name for the alarm input to be displayed on the screen if an alarm is activated (31 alphanumeric
characters maximum).
If alarm input is set to follow motion alarm, then motion detection must be set to On.
Alarm input 2 Off/High Functions in the same manner as the Alarm Input 1 field.
Connect on alarm Off The alarm functions would have little effect without automatically triggering corresponding actions. Select On
for automatic connection to the video receiver’s IP address. The idea is to provide a monitoring station with live
video in case of an alarm. (If you want both motion and alarm input to activate an alarm, set this field to On. If set
to motion only, motion alarms will activate an alarm but no input alarms will be recognized.)
This feature can be useful even for many applications not related to alarm conditions. One example is a video-
equipped door entry system: when the doorbell is pressed, a contact closes and the connected transmitter
automatically connects to a receiver.
Select Follows input 1 (transmitter) or Follows input (receiver) to specify that the connection remain as long
as the alarm is active. (If Follows input 1 or Follows input is set, motion will not activate an alarm.) Select
Follows motion alarm (transmitter only) to specify that the alarm will turn on when motion is detected and
turn off 10 seconds after motion is no longer detected. (If Follows motion alarm is set, alarm inputs will not be
recognized.)
Number of video
receiver address
1 The NET300 can store up to 10 different alarm IP addresses. When an alarm occurs, a connection is established
to the first address. Up to 10 separate addresses can be added should the first address not accept the call.
Use the pull-down menu to select how many additional addresses to contact, if necessary. (Add the IP addresses
in the next field.)
Live video
receiver/
transmitter IP
address
0.0.0.0 Enter the IP addresses (10 maximum) of the receivers (if configuring a transmitter) or transmitters (if configuring
a receiver) to be notified in the event of an alarm.
Remote receiver/
transmitter
password
N/A Enter the password for the remote unit if it is protected by a User or Live password.
Live video auto-
connect
Off Select On if at each restart an active connection should be setup automatically to the receiver’s IP address. The
auto-connect feature guarantees active connection to the receiver’s alarm IP address even after connection
breakdown or network failures. As soon as communication is restored, the connection is reinstated. On a
receiver, this feature is enabled to establish a connection to a transmitter automatically.

Setting Description
WARNING: Setting a User level password on a transmitter can cause complications on the receiver
side in a box-to-box configuration. To avoid this, on the receiver’s Alarm Settings configuration page
enter the transmitter’s IP address and user password in the appropriate fields (live video receiver IP
address and remote receiver password). If no User level password is set on the transmitter, then the
receiver needs no setup.
