From this menu you can configure the
DVR to emit an alarm tone from it’s
internal buzzer, or configure the DVR to
send an ‘Auto-Mail’ email alert when
motion is detected or other events occur.
Copy To: A quick way to copy the settings for the current channel to any or all other channels.
MD Alarm: Whether the DVR’s Motion Detection function will trigger an alarm event. Note that this
can be set independently of the Motion-based recording, which is controlled via the Schedule (page 16)
and motion detection configuration (pages 26~27) menus.
HDD Loss: Will trigger an alarm/buzzer if the hard drive stops functioning.
HDD Space: Will trigger an alarm/buzzer when the hard drive is out of space.
Video Loss: Will trigger an alarm/buzzer when a camera stops supplying images.
Alarm Management: Here you can configure how the DVR will alert you in the case of an internal
alarm event. You can select whether the DVR attempts to trigger an external alarm or sounds an
internal buzzer, as well as how long this alarm/buzzer will be active.
Email Setup: See page 25.
Alarm Time: Allows you to choose how long an alarm event will be; that is, how long the DVR will
spend alarmed after an event occurs.
Pre-Record: Allows the DVR to save a short amount of footage taken before an event actually occurs.
This can be particularly useful for video loss alarms, as you might just catch who or what caused this
alarm event!
