Auto Erase Video: The hard drive will automatically erase video after it has been on the hard drive for the selected number of days. To use the maximum hard drive space, choose “OFF”.

This feature is useful if local rules and regulations require recorded video to be discarded after a specific number of days, or to limit the retention of older recorded video to clear space in anticipation of event recording.

The built-in record period calculator can give a rough estimation of the total recording time for the DVR with the current settings. In order to compute as accurate an estimate as possible, please enter your expectations for the hours per day you expect recording to take place due to motion events and due to other alarm conditions.

Figure 4-8 Record & Play Menu-Built-in Cal.

Motion: Enter the expected number of hours per day due to motion recording.

Alarm: Enter the expected number of hours per day due to alarm recording.

If the total of Motion and Alarm hours is more than 24 hours, the calculator will assume that motion and alarm recording take place for the entire 24 hour period.
