If the camera has a built-in or pluggable digital input, the Sensor Input is displayed as a child of the Channel in the object tree. The number of Sensor Input objects for a video camera is equal to the number of discrete inputs for the camera.
To configure a Sensor Input object, perform the following:
- Select the Sensor Input object in the objects tree (1).
Enable the device (2).
Info title Note When a sensor Input is enabled, the Channel parent object is automatically enabled.
When you disable all child objects, the Sensor Input and Relay Output parent object Channel are also disabled.
- Enter the name of the sensor Input (3).
- Set the status to which the sensor Input will be set when no alarm is present.
- Click the Apply button.
The sensor Input will then be switched to its assigned work mode.
The current status of the sensor Input is displayed in the Sensor Input information group.
If a sensor Input is part of an IP server, the sensor Input settings allow choosing the video camera of the IP server it will be matched to. When you do this, the sensor Input object will appear as the child object of the specified camera in the object tree.
