4.12 Instant Recording
Instant Recording is a feature that allows manual starting of a camera recording, superseding the current schedule.
When Instant Recording is activated on a camera it also flags the specified video so that an Index Search can be
performed at a later date to bring up all the Instant Recording instances.
This can be used, for example, when a suspicious object or person is being recorded and you want to flag that section
of video for easy retrieval at a later date.

1) 1. From the Live View screen, double right-click on the camera on which to enable instant recording. An INSTANT
label will be placed on the upper right corner of the video.
2) To turn the Instant Recording option OFF, double right-click the video a second time.
