Linked alarms are automated responses triggered when a specific event occurs in a surveillance or security system. They connect one device or actionāsuch as motion detectionāto another, like activating a siren or recording video.
For example, if a camera detects movement in a restricted area, a linked alarm can immediately turn on lights, send alerts, or start recording. This fast response helps deter threats and improves situational awareness.
While basic systems may trigger only one action, advanced platforms support multiple linked responses. As a result, users can build flexible and intelligent security workflows.
By using linked alarms, organizations respond faster to incidents and improve overall system effectiveness.
