NOTE: If you get a "Bandwidth Exceeded" message, it is because you have set the combined bitrate or framerate for all your cameras higher than the NVR can process. It is recommended to set the bitrate and framerate to the following settings, based on the number of channels your NVR has:

Recommended Frame Rate and Bitrate per Number of Channels

Configuring the Pre-Record and Post-Record Times

The NVR supports pre-recording to record video from before events (such as motion or video loss) occur. The Pre-Record time determines how long the NVR will record before an event occurs.

The Post-Record time determines how long the NVR will record after an event occurs.
