Option Setting
Recording You can turn recording for text input on or off.
Sync Text With This selects channels to link with text data.
Device Select from various third-party devices, or select Manual.
Seek Header
By defining a header here, the DVR can recognize from the header that it is the
start point of the data. Two headers can be set and detected because one device
can send various types of data to external receivers.
However, this parameter is needed to see how one unit of data out of continuously
incoming text data is structured. All data has its start and end points, and the
header is data that is always inserted to indicate the start point.

Use the onscreen keyboard to enter the text you want displayed for the headers.
Delimiter
The delimiter value will differ depending on the device used. For more information
on delimiters, refer to the user manual or the device manufacturer.
Timeout (ms)
DelimiterLines defined below are the maximum number of text lines available
for one piece of data. Even though data is standardized, lengths might differ.
For example, three lines are programmed for client name input for an ATM, but
if someone registers only his/her first name and last name, only two lines are
provided when the person uses an ATM. However, the DVR cannot detect this
automatically, so Timeout is used to determine how long is needed to recognize the
received data as complete data after the last line is entered.
Lines Define the maximum number of lines for one piece of data.
External devices might not be recognized depending upon their particular features. Review
their product documentation or contact their manufacturer for information.
