Pelco DS NVS manual Motion Storage

MOTION STORAGE

The Motion Storage tab (refer to Figure 14) is similar to the Time-lapse Storage tab, except that it allows you to schedule recording only during motion events that occur in the selected camera’s view. While a motion event is occurring, this schedule and its recording rate override the time- lapse recording schedule.

Figure 14. Motion Storage Tab for Scheduling Motion Recording

For example, you have scheduled time-lapse recording at the Slow rate all day on Sunday and motion recording at the Fast rate from 2:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m. on Sunday. If no motion occurs at 2:00 a.m., video is recorded at the Slow rate. When motion occurs from 2:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m., video is recorded at the Fast rate.

When motion is occurring, the motion schedule overrides the time-lapse storage schedule. The exception is at times when motion recording is not scheduled at all. If motion occurs during a time unscheduled on the Motion Storage page, the time-lapse storage schedule and recording rate still apply.

The Motion Storage tab also includes a drop-down menu that allows you to configure how long motion video recorded from this camera is saved. The options in this list are created on the Storage Options page. Refer to the Video Storage Options on page 16 for more information.

Changes saved on the Motion Storage tab are implemented at the next time interval: 0 (zero), 15, 30, or 45 minutes after the hour.
