8.4 Triggering Alarms On Detection of Objects Outside of Set
Thermal Temperature Threshold
On models with the 35 mm thermal lens, you can set a High Temp Thermal Meter or Low
Temp Thermal Meter in order to trigger an alarm if the thermal spot meter identifies that the
temperature of an object in the view of the camera is outside of the temperature threshold set
in the system. The alarm input "High Temp Thermal Meter" identifies the high temperature
threshold for objects in view of the camera. If the camera detects an object with a
temperature that is higher than the threshold that is set in the system, it triggers an alarm.
The alarm input "Low Temp Thermal Meter" identifies the low temperature threshold for
objects in view of the camera. If the camera detects an object with a temperature that is lower
than the threshold that is set in the system, it triggers an alarm. For both inputs, the
temperature range is -40 °C to +150 °C, in 1 degree increments. The temperature scale is in
degrees Celsius only. The system allows you to set multiple high and low temperature inputs.
You can also set only a High threshold, or only a Low threshold; you do not need to set both.
To trigger the alarm, you must set the temperature threshold (high or low or both), and then
set the alarm rule.
Set the Temperature Threshold
To set the High Temp Thermal Meter input, follow these steps:
1. Access the Alarm Setup menu of the OSD.
2. Select the Inputs Setup submenu.
3. Select the number of the input that you want to set.
4. Select the value "High Temp Thermal Meter".
5. Select the degree for the high temperature threshold (for example, 50 °C). The default
option is "Not Set."
6. Exit the Inputs Setup submenu. The High Temperature threshold is now set.
To set the Low Temp Thermal Meter input, follow these steps:
1. Access the Alarm Setup menu of the OSD.
2. Select the Inputs Setup submenu.
3. Select the number of the input that you want to set.
4. Select the value "Low Temp Thermal Meter".
5. Select the degree for the low temperature threshold (for example, -10 °C). The default
option is "Not Set."
6. Exit the Inputs Setup submenu. The Low Temperature threshold is now set.
Set the Alarm Rule
To set the rule for the thermal temperature alarm, follow these steps:
1. Access the Rule Setup submenu.
2. Select the number of the rule that you want to define.
3. Select "Input."
4. Select the appropriate Input value: "High Temp Thermal Meter" or "Low Temp Thermal
Meter".
5. Select "Output."
6. Select the appropriate Output value. For example, in order to display the thermal
temperature alarm, when triggered, on the OSD, select the value "OSD."
7. Select "Yes" when prompted to "Enable Rule" in order to activate the alarm rule.
8. Exit the Rule [number] submenu. The rule that you selected is now "Enabled" in the
Alarm I/O Setup Menu.
