Operation Instruction

Figure 21 — Record Settings screen.

Highlighting Recycle and pressing the button toggles between On and Off. In the Recycle mode, the DVR records over the oldest video data once all available storage space has been used. When Recycle is turned off, the DVR stops recording once all available storage space has been used.

Highlight the Event Record Dwell box and set the length of time you would like to record for the associated event. You can set the dwell from 5 seconds to 30 minutes. Refer to Event Actions screen in this chapter for information regarding event recording.

Highlighting De-Interlaceand pressing the button toggles between On and Off. When set to On, the DVR will turn the de-interlace filter on while recording video with Very High (D1) resolution.

NOTE: The video signal has a time difference of 1/60 second (1/50 second for PAL) between odd and even fields because it is composed of 60 interlaced fields per second (50 fields for PAL). When recording video with Very High (D1) resolution, video is made up of frame units combining two fields – one odd field and one even field. This can cause horizontal scan lines or flashes in areas with motion because of the time difference between the two fields. Turning on the de-interlace filter provides clearer video by eliminating these horizontal scan lines and flashes.

The DVR can record up to four audio inputs. Highlighting Record Audio and pressing the button toggles between On and Off.

Highlight the slide bar beside Auto Deletion, and use the Left and Right arrow buttons or Up and Down arrow buttons to adjust the length of time recorded data will be kept from 1 to 999 days. The DVR automatically deletes video recorded earlier than the user-defined period under three conditions: at midnight, whenever the system reboots or whenever the user changes the Auto Deletion settings. Selecting Never will disable the Auto Deletion function.

Highlight the slide bar beside Limit Time-Lapse Recording, and use the Left and Right arrow buttons to adjust the length of the maximum storage time for time-lapse recording from 1 to 99 days. The Limit Time-Lapse Recording feature will function when the storage device has enough space to record video data longer than the preset period.

When this feature is On, the DVR records over the oldest “time-lapse” video once all available storage has been used in the Recycle mode, so more event video can be saved. Selecting Never will disable the Limit Time-Lapse Recording function.

NOTE: When the storage device does not have enough space to record video data longer than the preset Limit Time-Lapse Recording period, the DVR records over the oldest video data (time-lapse or event video) as it would in the Recycle mode even if this feature is turned On.

The maximum storage time is only an estimate because the amount of space required to store video varies depending on many factors such as motion and image complexity.

Highlight the Panic Record tab, and the Panic Record setup screen appears.

Highlighting Use Panic Recording and pressing the button toggles between On and Off.

Highlight the Panic Recording – Duration box and set the duration of panic recording. Panic recording will stop automatically after the preset duration as long as (Panic) in the Live Monitoring menu is not selected to stop the panic recording. You can set the dwell from 5 minutes to 1 hour. Select No Limit if you want to stop panic recording manually.

Highlighting the Panic Recording – ips and pressing the button allows you to set the images per second for Panic recording. You can select from 1.00 to 30.00 ips (25.00 ips PAL).
