PIR camera zone association

You can associate a PIR (passive infrared) camera with up to eight sensors. If any of the sensors trigger, the PIR camera records video footage for a short period of time.

In the PowerManage web application, the footage associates with the alarm event that the sensor triggers and not the

PIR camera. In the following example, the sensor in zone 1 connects to the PIR camera in zone 248. For more information, see Camera Zone Assign in PIR camera zone association and Zone in PIR camera zone association. When the sensor in zone 1 triggers an alarm, the PIR camera footage attaches to the sensor. For more information, see Camera icon in PIR camera zone association.

To associate a PIR Camera with one or more sensors, see Associating a PIR camera with a sensor.
