The system will record video from all 4 channels simultaneously with MOTION, SCHEDULE and MANUAL record modes. One of the four channels will have audio available. Note: To toggle between recording and
not recording sound with the video image press the “Power” button once briefly. The icon 
will show on the screen when the sound is muted. See Audio/Video Recording Caution Statement below. The time slot boxes in the diagram above each represent hourly slots, e.g., selecting AM 10:00 means recording will occur from 10:00 am to 11:00 am. Also if for example, boxes AM 10:00 and AM 11:00 are set to “S” (Schedule) recording, please note that a continuous 2 hour video file will not be recorded but separate files depending on the recording time for each file setup, i.e., if set to 2 minutes then 60 clips will be recorded in a 2 hour schedule recording slot.
While the system is performing MOTION recording, audio will automatically switch to the channel triggering by motion. Recording cannot be stopped until 30 seconds after recording has started. This mandatory system operation is designed to prolong the overall life of memory card. To stop recording, press REC/DEL once. To remove the memory card, please power off the system first.
If SCHEDULE recording mode is set, the system will automatically resume recording 60 seconds after recording is stopped manually. If MOTION record mode is set, the system will resume motion detection function 60 seconds after recording is stopped manually.
Recording must be stopped before entering the system main menu and the system will resume the mode selected in the IDLE DISPLAY SETUP.
NOTE: Recording will not work if there is no memory card inserted into the DVR.

Caution: Audio surveillance in some states is illegal or requires permission from one or both par- ties to record someone’s voice. Laws are also different from residential vs. commercial applications. Some federal, state, and local laws prohibit certain surveillance activities and/or the use or distribution of the information obtained from such activities. Prior to using this system, you should become familiar with the per-
tinent laws to ensure compliance with those applicable to surveillance activities.
