Planet NVR-820 User Manual page 110

This function allows users to use camera's digital input port from the recorder as source of an
event. You can set up the recorder to receive events from a particular camera's input port and
then trigger the NVR to start recording.
*The recorder only acts as a medium for pairing up input/output ports between
cameras and the recorder.
*Only connected cameras will be displayed in the list.
*Some cameras only allow one trigger source to be configured at a time, e.g.,
If the camera has the motion detection function turned on, its digital input will be
disabled and vice versa. Under such circumstance, if you set to use camera's
digital input port as the event trigger source, you will not be able to select motion
detection as the trigger source for this camera under "Event Trigger" setup page.
* The image(s) that are uploaded to the destined FTP server or emailed to a
destined mail recipient are in their own proprietary image file format (.h4i or .p4i),
which can only be opened by the NVR media player.
Event servers are to be used with event trigger actions. In case of unusual motion detected by
the camera or a disk failure, the recorder can send notification with the acceptable format
(image / txt) to a destined event server according to the configuration.
