To configure recording to the archive and the initiation of an alarm when a detection tool is triggered, you must perform the following steps:

1. Select the Record to archive and alarm check box (1).

1. In the Actions list (2), select the desired action to be taken when the detection tool is triggered:
   1. Write to archive (for the value Write on detection tool trigger).

Note: When this value is selected, an alarm is not initiated in the system when the detection tool is triggered.

1. 1. Record to archive and initiate an alarm in the system (the value Record and initiate alarm).
   2. Record to archive and initiate an alarm in the system if there is not currently an active alarm (the value Record and initiate alarm if no alarm is active).
2. In the Record to list (3), select the archive to which you need to record the video image (and audio signal, if configured accordingly) when the detection tool is triggered.

Attention! Recording from the detection tool video camera to this archive must be setup (see the section Configuring Recording of the Video Stream from Video Cameras to the Archive).

1. In the Alarm flag position field (4), enter the number of seconds by which the alarm flag will be shifted back from the actual time the alarm was triggered.

Note: If the alarm flag position is set, playback of an event received for processing begins from the moment corresponding to the flag's position, and not from the moment of the beginning of the alarm.

1. In the Post-record time field (5), enter the post record time, which is the length in seconds of post-alarm recording which will be added to the end of the recording made in connection with the alarm. The post record time is counted from the moment of the end of the alarm and is observed only if the alarm is evaluated by the operator before the end of the given time. If the alarm is evaluated by the operator or automatically after the end of the post record time, the recording ends at the moment of evaluation of the alarm.

Note 1: Post-alarm time is 0 seconds by default.
Note 2: For example, let's say that the post record time is 2 minutes. An alarm is registered. If the operator evaluates the alarm before it is over or within 2 minutes of the moment it ended, the recording will end exactly 2 minutes from the moment the alarm ended. If the alarm is evaluated by the operator or automatically after two minutes have passed since the end of the alarm, the recording ends at the moment of evaluation of the alarm.

1. Go to another automatic rule, or click Apply.

Configuration of recording to the archive and initiation of an alarm when a detection tool is triggered is now complete.
