How to Edit Recording Schedules

After editing recording group settings, you can begin to edit recording schedules for the devices in a recording group. By default setting, all devices are assigned to the default recording schedule (Please refer to the default time frame on page 44). Therefore, once you insert a device to the station, the ST7501 server will begin to record live video according to the default recording schedule. You can manually remove a device from the default recording schedule. However, please note that you cannot assign recording schedules to those devices which have been deleted from a recording group.

Following is the illustration of recording schedules, which are composed of several time frames. For each time frame, it has its own time segments, applying time range, repeat interval, and recording mode. Therefore, you can create different recording schedules with simple or complex time frames based on your need.

Devices in Recording Group

Time Frame a

Time Frame b

Recording Schedule 1

Time Frame n

Time Frame y

Recording Schedule N

Time Frame z

In addition, you can arrange the priority of each time frame according to its importance. The recording schedule with the highest priority will be applied first. This design is very useful because you can specify a new time frame with the highest priority for temporary need without modifying all the other time frames.

Features of the recording schedules:

Each device can be assigned to only one recording schedule.

Each recording schedule may contain many time frames.

Each time frame has its own repeat frequency and recording mode.

To save your time of editing recording schedules and time-frames, we also provide a useful template function for you to save your setting of schedules/time-frames. That is, you can save a specified schedule and download it as a template for future application or upload a well- arranged schedule template designed by others.

Please note that after you save the recording settings to the server, the recording schedule will begin automatically according to your settings.
