Open the General Event Settings dialog to arm or disarm the camera's main event control and to configure associated functions such as custom signals, the master/slave feature or the event LEDs.
Note: Click on the More button at the bottom of the dialog to display all options.

Arming |
When you deactivate arming permanently or temporarily, events will continue to be recognized (and highlighted in the image symbols) but they will not be processed any further. Consequently, the images are not stored, the event counter is not incremented and neither actions nor messages are executed.
Notes:

Time Table Profile |
In order to arm the camera in a time-controlled manner, you need to select a Time Table Profile. You need to enable arming. The time table profile can also be combined with arming via signal-input. |

Source |
The custom signals CS1, CS2 and CSL are states maintained on the local camera that can be configured to update themselves from various sources and that can then be fed as additional inputs into the camera's arming controls for Main Event Arming, Recording, Actions, Messaging and Messaging 2. The possible input sources for CS1 and CS2 are:
The possible input sources for CSL, the so-called logically combined custom signal, are as follows:
Another important property of the custom signals is the fact that they can also be distributed among a set of networked cameras using the Master/Slave feature. |

Signal Input |
Allows you to specify which of the available signal inputs to use as input for the respective custom signal. Depending on your camera model and the expansion hardware connected, you may have the following options: |
||||||||||||||||
Signal Input Status |
Allows you to specify which particular state of the signal input channel sets the respective custom signal to true:
|

Time Table Profile |
This list allows you to select one of the locally defined time table profiles as input for the corresponding custom signal. The custom signal will be true only when the time table profile is currently active. |
Option | Parameter |
---|---|
Flashing LEDs |
This parameter controls the flashing of the camera LEDs that have been set to Event in the LED Setup dialog:
|
Blinking LEDs |
This parameter provides numerous options for controlling the blinking (slower than flashing) of the camera LEDs that have been set to Event in the LED Setup dialog. The default setting is Blink on recording. |
Note: This option is only available if the camera detects attached signal inputs.
Option | Parameter |
---|---|
Arming Delay |
This parameter allows setting a delay that will pass without alarms after arming has been activated from a signal input. |
Disarming Delay |
This parameter allows setting a delay that will pass after arming has been deactivated from a signal input. |
Click on the Set button to activate your settings and to save them until the next reboot of the camera.
Click on the Factory button to load the factory defaults for this dialog (this button may not be present in all dialogs).
Click on the Restore button to undo your most recent changes that have not been stored in the camera permanently.
Click on the Close button to close the dialog. While closing the dialog, the system checks the entire configuration for changes. If changes are detected, you will be asked if you would like to store the entire configuration permanently.
