TOA Electronics C-DR091 CU Series Pre-Recording, Recording State, Normal recording

15.4.2. Normal recording

This function automatically records camera images set by schedule. For Normal recording, settable items for each individual camera include: Recording ON/OFF; Recording Rate; and Picture Quality. (Refer to p. 81; Normal Recording setting.) Recordings can be made on scheduled patterns like "day and night," and "weekdays and holidays” by combining two or more programs.

15.5. Pre-Recording

This function records images immediately before Priority recording or Alarm Event recording is initiated. Setting the Pre-Recording interval to 1 second or more allows Pre-Recording to be performed. In Pre- Recording, the recording rate and picture quality cannot be individually set for each camera. Instead, recording rate, picture quality, and audio ON/OFF settings are common to all connected cameras. The maximum recording rate per camera is 4 IPS. (Refer to p. 85; Pre-Recording setting.)

Pre-Recording can be performed under the following conditions.

•When Priority recording begins while recording is stopped.

•When an alarm event occurs and alarm even recording begins while a schedule in which Normal Recording is not available but Alarm Event Recording is available is in operation.

Note: Pre-Recording cannot be performed during Normal Recording.

15.6. Recording State

The Digital Video Recorder permits recordings to be set to best meet user requirements.
