How	to	use	the	terminals	of	the	ALARM/CONTROL	connector
These terminals are used for emergency recording, auto time adjustment and when installing a buzzer, a lamp or a similar alarm 
device.
The connector to be used should be compatible with the pin array.
Pin array
The pin array is different from other digital disk recorders. Make sure 
that the connection is correct referring to the following.

recorder will be generated as the signal output, 
and then the time of all other recorders is adjust-
ed to the time of this recorder. 30 kΩ, 5 V pull-up, Output cur-

Connection for emergency recording
When the external switch is turned on, emergency recording will start.
Emergency recording will differently be performed depending on the settings on the [Emergency rec.] tab under the "Basic"  page 
of the setup menu. (+ Page 70) 
Connection	for	external	recording	mode	changeover
When the external switch is set to "On", recording will start after changing the recording program.
The recording program can be set on "Time table setup(Ext.)" on the [Time table] tab under the "Schedule" page of the setup 
menu (+ Page 81).
Connection for synchronization of the sequence switchover
Camera channel of the sequence display will be switched upon the signal \
input to the sequence switchover input. When using 
multiple recorders, it is possible to synchronize the switchover timing.
The setting for the sequence switchover timing can be configured on "Sequence timing" on the [Monitor 1] tab (or "Monitor 2" 
tab) under the "Display" page of the setup menu (+ Pages 86 and 88).
When synchronizing the sequence switchover timing between multiple recorders, the setting for the sequence switchover timing 
is differently configured between the master recorder and the slave recorder as follows.
Master	recorder: Set to "Int" (functions as the output terminal)
Slave recorder: Set to "Ext" (functions as the input terminal)

Connection	for	the	auto	time	adjustment	function	(1)
When "Master" is set for "Auto time adjustment" on the [Time & date] tab under the "Basic" page of the setup menu
"Time adjustment signal output" becomes available and the clock of this recorder will be applied to other devices.
The time adjustment signal output will be generated from pin no. 20 (time adjustment I/O) at the time set for "Activation ti\
me"
Connection	for	the	auto	time	adjustment	function	(2)
When	"Slave"	is	set	for	"Auto	adjustment	time"	on	the	[Time	&	date]	tab	under	the	"Basic"page	of	the	setup	menu
"Time adjustment signal input" becomes available and the clock of the othe\
r device will be applied to this recorder.
When a signal output from the other device is supplied to the time adjustment I/O terminals (p\
in no. 20) 15 minutes before/after 
the time set for "Activation time", the clock of the recorder will be set to the time set for "Activation time".
Example:
When "15:00" is set for "Activation time"
	 •	 Signal	is	supplied	at	2:50:00	(hour:minute:second)	pm	→ Set at 3:00:00 pm
	 •	 Signal	input	supplied	at	3:14:45	pm	→ Set at 3:00:00 pm
	 •	 Signal	is	supplied	at	3:20:00	pm	→ Time will not be adjusted.Important:
	 •	 When	"Slave"	is	selected,	the	clock	will	not	be	adjusted	during	event	recording	or	emergency	recording.

Connection of the control output
When an alarm device such as a buzzer or a lamp is connected, the signal\
 output from pin nos.15 - 18 can be used to notify the 
status by sounding a buzzer or lighting a lamp.
The following example is of a connection with the HDD error output (pin no. 16).
Connection with the Uninterruptible Power System (UPS)
This is an example of a connection with the uninterruptible power system\
 (UPS) to be installed to protect from a power outage.
When a signal is supplied to the outage detection input terminals from the uninterruptible power system (UPS), internal process-
ing (stops recording safely) will start to shut off the power supply for the recorder.
After completing the internal processing, a signal will be supplied from the outage processing end output terminal to the uninter-
ruptible power system (UPS). Then, the power supply to the recorder can be suspended.Important:
	 •	 Be	sure	to	use	an	UPS	that	provides	a	sine	wave	output.
    Do not use an UPS that provides a square wave. It may damage the recorder.
