When the unit internal video sensor send a trigger, it will be
output at the SENSOR ALARM OUT terminals. By connecting
indicator lamps switching circuits to theses connectors (Fig. 1),
an indication can be generated when the video sensors send a
trigger.

For example, the video sensor alarm indicator lamps could be
laid out on a factory floor plan to give accurate indication of
trigger location. The terminals are normally open (NO). A trigger
at the video sensor for one of the cameras, will switch the signal
to LOW.
