16-Channel Digital Video Recorder

Highlighting the box under the Video Loss Interval heading allows you to set the duration of a signal loss before the DVR will report a Video Loss. The DVR will not consider any signal loss from a camera to be a Video Loss if the detected signal loss is shorter than the interval set on this screen.

Highlight Use Ignoring Time and press the button to toggle between On and Off. When set to On, the DVR will ignore video loss events occurring during the preset period.

Highlighting Time Setup and pressing the button allows you to set up event ignoring time.

The DVR can be set to react to video loss differently for each camera. Each camera can be associated with another camera, trigger an Alarm-Out connector, sound the DVR’s internal buzzer, notify a number of different devices, and/or move PTZ cameras to preset positions.

Highlight the box under the Record heading and press the button. A list of cameras appears. You can associate as many cameras with that camera as you wish. If the DVR detects video loss on the selected camera, it starts recording video from all the associated cameras.
