DO NOT INSERT ANY METALLIC OBJECTS THROUGH THE VENTILATION GRILLS OR OTHER OPENINGS ON THE EQUIPMENT. CAUTION EXPLANATION OF GRAPHICAL SYMBOLS The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. [. . . ] The first method involves leaving the REC button on to start recording manually and combining event recording. This would be useful in a scenario where a location needs to be recorded continuously even at a very minimal recording speed, but when an event is triggered, the recording speed is boosted to the desired pictures per second. The second method involves leaving the REC button off so that only events are recorded. The following settings will assume that the second method is used for event recording. With either method, the events will trigger the designated relays and send out 57 SAGA "ST" Series notification e-mails if the e-mail addresses have been defined. Please see 6. 4. 8 RELAY OUTPUT under 6. 4 EVENT SETUP section on page 101 and 6. 6. 5 E-MAIL under 6. 5 LINK SETUP on page 119. 5. 3. 1 ALARM RECORDING Alarm recording is a form of event recording that triggers off of the circuit lines connected to the terminal blocks in the rear of the DVR. Typical circuits comprise of normally closed circuits (NC) and normally open circuits (NO). Verify that the alarm option has been selected in either QUICK SETUP or RECORD PROGRAM. The channels on which the alarm is triggered will display the "ALARM" message. The REC button will light up as the DVR starts to record and the channel status will change to red. The recording will include the pre and post recording time on the channels that are recording. 5. 3. 2 VIDEO LOSS RECORDING Video loss recording is a form of event recording that is triggered when a channel loses its video input signal. Video loss recording is useful to have other channels compensate for the loss of the video signal on a specific channel. For example, when a video loss occurs on channel 1, then the DVR can start recording on channel 2, 3 and 4. Moreover, the channel which loses the video signal will retain the last five seconds of the video to retain what occurred before the video loss. Verify that the video loss option has been selected in either QUICK SETUP or RECORD PROGRAM. The channel on which the video loss occurred will display the "VLOSS" message. The REC button will light up as the channels that are designated to record when a specific channel has a video loss start recording. On the example to the left, channels 2, 3 and 4 are designated to record when channel 1 goes out. The recording will include the pre and post recording time on the channels that are recording. 58 SAGA "ST" Series 5. 3. 3 MOTION RECORDING Motion recording is yet another effective form of event recording that is triggered when a channel detects motion in its field of view. The channels which detect motion will display the "MOTION" message. The REC button will light up and the channel status will change the color to red in the channels in which the motion was detected.
