ACKNOWLEDGING AN ALARM OR MOTION EVENT
The DX4104 allows you to manually acknowledge an event state that has activated a relay output. By default, the DVR’s output relay is turned off
when the post-alarm time expires. Acknowledging an alarm or motion event does not end alarm or motion event recording. The post-alarm time
determines the time period for alarm recording. For information about configuring the relay off setting, refer to Relay Output Setup on page 41.
For information about configuring the post-alarm time, refer to Schedule Menu on page 34.
The acknowledge alarm feature supports the following actions:
Output: A relay associated with a channel and linked to an alarm input. If the relay is configured for an acknowledged alarm, the relay
output is activated until it is manually deactivated.
Sound alert: An audible signal from the unit when an unacknowledged event occurs.
Visible indicator An indicator in the camera pane that appears for the length of time set by the post-alarm time.
Remote notification: Mail notification and emergency notification to alert remote users that an event has occurred.
To acknowledge an event, click the Alarm OFF button .
The event is acknowledged and the relay output is deactivated. If sound is enabled, it is turned off.
