[Explanation of Table]
The setup examples in the table on the preceding page are explained below.
Example 1: Spot (S)
An alarm will cause the picture of the alarmed camera to be displayed on the designated monitor.
Contents of Example 1 setup:
When Alarm 1 is activated, Monitor 1 displays the picture of Camera 1 at preset position 1.
When a second alarm, Alarm 2, is activated, Monitor 1 switches to the picture of Camera 2, and after 5 seconds again
switches to the picture of Camera 1 for 10 seconds. After that Monitor 1 displays the two camera pictures alternately.
Notes:
• If plural Spot Cameras are assigned to a monitor in the event of alarm, it is recommended to program a Tour Sequence in
advance.
• To keep the latest alarmed Spot picture on a monitor, do the following:
1. Set both the Dwell time and Auto Reset time to 30 seconds.
When several alarms are activated within a short period of time, the previous Spot picture may momentarily appear on
the monitor.
2. Make the Auto Reset time shorter than the Dwell time.
If the Auto Reset time expires before the next alarm is activated, the alarm mode will be reset and the Sequence or
Spot picture displayed in response to the previous alarm remains on the monitor.
Example 2: Tour Sequence (T)
An alarm will activate a previously programmed Tour Sequence on the designated monitor.
Contents of Example 2 setup:
When Alarm 3 is activated, Tour Sequence 1 runs on Monitor 2.
Example 3: Group Sequence (G)
An alarm will activate a previously programmed Group Sequence on the designated monitor.
Contents of Example 3 setup:
When Alarm 4 is activated, Group Sequence 1 runs on Monitors 3 and 4.
Important:
Group Sequences must be assigned to monitors before programming the Setup menu.
Example 4: Combination of all of the above
An alarm will activate a combination of the above previously programmed functions.
Contents of Example 4 setup:
When Alarm 5 is activated, Monitor 5 display the picture of Camera 3 at preset position 2.  At the same time, Tour
Sequence 2 runs on Monitor 2 and Group Sequence 2 runs on Monitors 7 and 8.
Error (E) display
An attempt to assign an incompatible mode to a monitor will cause E for Error to be displayed in the table.
Example 5: Error (E)
An attempt was made to assign Tour Sequence 3 to Monitor 9, although Monitor 9 is designated as a Spot monitor.
