Data Lifetime indicates the duration that a video is saved and recallable in the HDD. Only those video recorded within Data Lifetime can be displayed on the screen and played back. The video exceeded Data Lifetime will be hidden and cannot be retrieved for playback.

Press ENTER to select this item in Record Setup menu, and then use UP / DOWN keys to set the data lifetime. The value ranges from <1> to <365> days, or select <0> to disable the function.

NOTE: To play back a video exceeding the data lifetime, please extend the duration until the recording data / time of the video is included.

3.6.7Pre-Alarm Recording

This item is used to set the recording duration of pre-alarm video. The pre-alarm recording function aims to allow the user to view a complete event video. What user can view is not only the video recorded after the alarm is triggered, but also the video recorded few seconds before the alarm is triggered.

When an event is triggered while normal recording is in effect, the unit will start copying the pre-alarm and the post-alarm video to the event video. The pre-alarm duration can be set from 0~30 seconds.

The quality of the pre-alarm video is the same as the quality setting for normal record video; and the quality of the post-alarm video is the same as the quality setting for event record video.
