Alarms

Intensive on Recording – Enable this function to increase the frame rate and resolution for a camera if an alarm or sensor is activated,
or if motion is detected.
Video Loss Alarm – Determine how the recorder will respond if a camera channel loses video. The recorder can beep, the loss can be
added to the System Log, or you can activate an external alarm.
Login Failure – Enable this function for the recorder to beep continuously in response to a failed login attempt. Only an authorized login
will stop the beeping.
Note If Video Loss Alarm is enabled, do not use Control Output 16 for other purposes. (For 8-channel models, do not use Control
Output 8 for other purposes.)
