RELAY ARRAY
A relay array is a grouping of relays that are associated with the same device in the DVR5100 network. These relays can be configured by
selecting the relay array and then setting up the individual relays within the array. Relays work much like switches. When triggered, relays can
activate external devices, such as sirens, light fixtures, and door locks. Each of these relays can be configured separately in the Devices screen
(refer to Figure 88 on page 78).
One relay is provided for every four channels:
• One relay output is provided for a 4-channel DVR.
• Two relay outputs (One, two for channels 1 and 2, respectively) are provided for an 8-channel DVR.
• Four relay outputs (One, two for channels 1 and 2, respectively; three, four for channels 9 and 10, respectively) are provided for a
16-channel DVR.
