Highlighted in white, is the schedule option, this will allow you to set your schedule based on either hour, day or month. 

Highlighted in the green box is the Trigger start conditons, here you can set the trigger to star the recording or have an alarm happen when this trigger is met.  Depending on what condition you choose, the different options in the highlighted green box will change. 

Highlighted in the yellow box is the Trigger stop conditons.  This is the same thing as the start, expcept for that it will stop the alarm/ recording for you. 

Highlighted in the Blue box is your alarm settings.  The alarm conditon will allow you to choose which alarms (1,2,3 or4) will go off for what which channel.

IF you want your alarm to stay until the stop conditon is met, that when the alarm hold option would com in handy.
