Alarm Input/Output
Alarm input and alarm output ports are used for alarm action purposes,
and although each has a specific function, both are configured within this
section.  Each I/O card supplies 32 relay circuits in banks of 8.  Because
of this, 8 consecutive IDs must be configured with the same directional
type - either input or output.  For example, if ID 1 is configured as an
input port, then IDs 2-8 must be input ports as well.
Then, port 9 through port 16 can be configured as output ports if...

Alarms
Alarms play an important role within an SCS.  Alarms can automatically
trigger up to ten actions, such as camera spots, tour sequences, or group
sequence, in any combination.  These actions allow the system to open or
close a contact connected to an I/O port that will start a siren or possibly
turn on a spotlight.  They also can alert the operator on a monitor during a
triggered alarm.
In order to configure alarms successfully, an administrator must first
create the alarm targets, and then...

An alarm target is an ID number that defines a group of one or more
monitors.
Alarm targets are assigned to alarms in order to link alarm actions to
specific monitors.  At least one alarm target must be created before you
can create an alarm.
When an alarm is triggered, an action will occur.  For example, causing a
camera spot (configured in the alarm definition) to display on an array of
monitors assigned to a specific target....
