Video Alarm Setup sub-tab allows setting up screening engagement and disengagement holdoff

input). In the default example settings shown here, engagement and disengagement of alarm

Factory default holdoff settings shown here are recommended for at least initial settings. If holdoff
periods are too brief, nuisance alarms may be generated during transitions to and from programs
