cally detects when the Video
Recorder is in playback
mode and will display the

The history list shows all
events that have been
caused by an alarm, door-
bell, motion or a special
alarm.
A snap shot of the camera
image is stored every time
the doorbell is activated and
can be viewed via the history
list. Up to 10 images can be
saved before new images
are recorded over old ones.
This enables the system to
use functionality available
with a remote surveillance
unit.
When there is an alarm, the
system automatically
acknowledges the alarm and
replays the event (if event
replay is activated) after the
programmed alarm duration
has expired (can be set from
5 sec. to 15 min).
