This starts recording and an alarm.
Most of the parameters are from the Record to archive command settings (see Record to archive). Other than that, there are following settings:
Select Alarm mode (1, always or only when there are no other active alarms for the camera).
Selecting a camera or group of cameras (2). An implicit selection of a video camera is also allowed - Camera that initiated command execution.
Attention!
If the start of the macro was triggered by the activation of a sensor or a relay (see Configuring filters for event-driven macros) that is not connected to any camera, you need to select a specific camera here. If you select a group of cameras or a camera that triggered the command, the action will not start.
- Select an archive to write to (2).
- In the Alarm flag position field, enter the number of seconds by which the alarm flag will be shifted back from the event time that started the macro (4).
Note
If the alarm flag position is set, the event footage plays from the moment corresponding to the flag's position, and not from the alarm start.
