PRE-ALARM RECORDING

This setting determines if pre-alarm images will be recorded either before motion is de- tected or before there is an alarm signal at the ALARM IN terminal. If the pre-alarm record- ing option is selected, the recorder temporarily records video, but saves it only if motion is detected or the ALARM IN terminal is activated. The duration of the saved recording de- pends on the settings in the MAX REC FIELDS, IMAGE QUALITY, and PRE-A REC fields.

Skip steps 1 and 2 if they have already been done.

NOTE: The duration of recording before the alarm occurs depends on the settings in the MAX REC FIELDS, IMAGE QUALITY, and PRE A-REC fields.
