Then, the system operates as follows: • The camera image (alarm image) appears on the monitor. In the factory default setting, the alarm inputs 1 to 16 are associated with the same-numbered camera input connectors. All the video output signals are sent to Monitor 1. For example, when the alarm (sensor) connected to the alarm input 1 becomes active, the camera input connector 1's image appears on Monitor 1. • "ALARMnn" appears on the monitor. (nn is the alarm number). ALARM01 • Alarm output signals are supplied from Alarm Output 1 to 4 (#10, 11, 23 and 24) of the ALARM port (25-pin Dsub connector) at the rear panel. Alarm Output 1 to 4 is associated with MONITOR OUT 1 to 4. For example, when an alarm input signal is activated on MONITOR OUT 1, the matrix switcher supplies an alarm output signal from Alarm Output 1. • The alarm number and "Alarm" sign will appear on the LCD.
