4.1Setup Overview
The Setup options allow you to optimize your DVR unit by adjusting things like camera names, reboot schedules, recording schedules and more. It is extremely important that you setup your DVR correctly for several reasons.
•Recording Schedules – By optimizing the recording schedule you can increase the amount of pertinent recorded video that is saved on the DVR and keep it longer. You can optimize the type of recording done by adding motion detection to this as well, again increasing the amount of useful video.
•DVR Access – By setting up the access passwords you can tightly control the types of access an individual may have. This ensures the security and integrity of the DVR unit.
•Camera Naming – By naming each camera you can easily identify the location and any other pertinent information that may be helpful simply by viewing it on the Video Display Area.
•Adjusting Camera Color – By adjusting each camera’s color settings you can optimize the clarity and detail that is recorded.
