Alarm
Alarm Connections
In the event of an alarm, the unit can automatically
connect to a pre-defined IP address. The unit can contact
up to ten IP addresses in the order listed until a
connection is made.
Connect on alarm
Select On so that the unit automatically connects to a
pre-defined IP address in the event of an alarm.
Number of destination IP address
Specify the numbers of the IP addresses to be contacted
in the event of an alarm. The unit contacts the remote
locations one after the other in the numbered sequence
until a connection is made.
Destination IP address
For each number, enter the corresponding IP address for
the desired remote station.
Destination password
If the remote station is password protected, enter the
password here.
Only ten passwords can be defined here. Define a
general password if more than ten connections are
required. The unit connects to all remote stations
protected by the same general password. To define a
general password:
1
Select 10 in the Number of destination IP address
list box.
2
Enter 0.0.0.0 in the Destination IP address field.
3
Enter the password in the Destination password
field.
4
Set the user password of all the remote stations to
be accessed using this password.
Setting destination 10 to the IP-address 0.0.0.0 overrides
its function as the tenth address to try.
Video transmission
If the unit is operated behind a firewall, select TCP
(HTTP port) as the transfer protocol. For use in a local
network, select UDP.
To enable multicast operation, select UDP for the Video
transmission parameter here and on the Network
Access page.
Note
In the event of an alarm, a larger network bandwidth is
sometimes required for additional video streams (if
multicast operation is not possible).
Stream
Select a stream to be transmitted.
Remote port
Select an appropriate browser port depending on the
network configuration.
The ports for HTTPS connections are only available if
SSL encryption is set to On.
Video output
If a hardware receiver is used, select the analog video
output to which the signal should be switched. If the
destination device is unknown, select First available.
This places the image on the first video output with no
signal.
The connected monitor only displays images when an
alarm is triggered.
Note
Refer to the destination unit documentation for more
information on image display options and available
video outputs.
Decoder
If a split image is set for the selected video output, select
a decoder to display the alarm image. The decoder
selected determines the position in the split image.
SSL encryption
SSL encryption protects data used for establishing a
connection, such as the password. By selecting On, only
encrypted ports are available for the Remote port
parameter. SSL encryption must be activated and
configured on both sides of a connection.
