RECORD SCHEDULE

By default, the DVR unit is customized for continuous 24-hour video recording. If you prefer to record video only at certain time schedules within a day, you can choose specific recording hours. If the DVR unit is connected to sensor devices, you can also customize the unit to initiate video recording only when the sensors detect an event.
