2.3.2 Installing Sensor Alarm

The DVR has 4, 8, or 16 channel alarm input (depending on model) and
four-channel alarm output.
Alarm Input:
The alarm input is triggered by electric level (High: 5V, Low: 0V). Users can
connect external sensors, like gas detector, smoke detector and infrared
detector. Once the DVR detects that the electric level meets the setting user's
make, it will trigger DVR recording or alarm out.
For example, a sensor is connected to alarm input1. Cable A and B will be
connected once the sensor detects an event. Users set Device type as NC
(Normal Close). It will input +5V (high level) to input1 when events happen. DVR
is triggered.
