REC QUALITY:

This option determines the image quality to be recorded. The DVR stores images in the compressed format and allows the image quality to be altered by the image size. There are 4 levels of image quality you can select from: BEST, HIGH, STANDARD, and BASIC. Selecting the BEST image for use provides higher-resolution recorded images, and normally takes up more storage space than a HIGH, STANDARD or BASIC image does.

DISK FULL:

This option determines the way to utilize storage media in case of a full disk.

REWRITE: When the hard-disk is full, the device continues recording by displacing the old data.

STOP: When the hard-disk is full, the device will stop recording.
