In the main menu, from SETTING->EVENT->ALARM, you can see alarm setup interface. See Figure
4-78.
There are four alarm types. See Figure 4-78 to Figure 4-81.
Local alarm: The alarm signal system detects from the alarm input port.

Network alarm: It is the alarm signal from the network.

IPC external alarm: It is the on-off alarm signal from the front-end device and can activate the local

NVR.
IPC offline alarm: Once you select this item, system can generate an alarm when the front-end IPC

disconnects with the local NVR. The alarm can activate record, PTZ, snap and etc. The alarm can
last until the IPC and the NVR connection resumes.
Important
If it is your first time to boot up the device, the disconnection status of the front-end

network camera will not be regarded as offline. After one successfully connection, all
the disconnection events will be regarded as IPC offline event.
When IPC offline alarm occurs, the record and snapshot function of digital channel is

null.
In the main menu, from SETTING->EVENT->ALARM, you can see alarm setup interface.
Channel: Here is for you to select channel number.

Enable: Please you need to highlight this button to enable current function.

Type: normal open or normal close.

Period: Click Setup button, you can see an interface is shown as in Figure 4-83. There are two ways

for you to set periods. There are max 6 periods in one day. There are four record types: Regular,
Motion detection (MD), Alarm, MD & alarm.
Anti-dither: Here you can set anti-dither time. The value ranges from 0 to 600s. The anti-dither time

refers to the alarm signal lasts time. It can be seem as the alarm signal activation stays such as the
buzzer, tour, PTZ activation, snapshot, channel record. The stay time here does not include the latch
time. During the alarm process, the alarm signal can begin an anti-dither time if system detects the
local alarm again. The screen prompt, alarm upload, email and etc will not be activated. For example,
if you set the anti-dither time as 10 second, you can see the each activation may last 10s if the local
alarm is activated. During the process, if system detects another local alarm signal at the fifth
second, the buzzer, tour, PTZ activation, snapshot, record channel will begin another 10s while the
screen prompt, alarm upload, email will not be activated again. After 10s, if system detects another
alarm signal, it can generate an alarm since the anti-dither time is out.
Alarm Out: The number here is the device alarm output port. You can select the corresponding

ports(s) so that system can activate the corresponding alarm device(s) when an alarm occurred.
Latch: When the anti-dither time ended, the channel alarm you select in the alarm output may last

the specified period. The value ranges from 1 to 300 seconds. This function is not for other alarm
activation operations. The latch is still valid even you disable the alarm event function directly.
Show Message: System can pop up a message to alarm you in the local host screen if you enabled

this function.
