RECORD TIME LIMIT: In accordance with certain local or organizational requirements and data protection laws, it may be necessary to limit the
amount of footage being stored on the DVR. The RECORD TIME LIMIT refers to the amount of time that the data will be stored on the DVR
before being erased or replaced. You can set the recording limit from between 12 hours – 1 month, or turn this feature off entirely.
• EXAMPLE: The RECORD TIME LIMIT is set to 1 Month, and you begin recording on January 1st. On February 1st, the DVR will begin to
overwrite (hour by hour) all recorded footage that took place on January 1st. On February 2nd, the DVR will begin to overwrite (hour by
hour) all recorded footage that took place on January 2nd.
OVERWRITE: Can be turned ON or OFF. The overwrite option determines the actions that the DVR will take when the hard drive becomes full. If
set to ON, the DVR will overwrite data when the hard drive is full, beginning with the earliest recorded footage. When turned OFF, the DVR
will halt recording when the disk becomes full and no footage will be overwritten or erased. Recording will stop, and the DVR’s buzzer will be
activated.
FORMATTING THE DVR’S HARD DRIVE
If necessary, all recorded footage on the DVR can be
erased by selecting the FORMAT option.
1. Click the START button next to FORMAT.
NOTE: Formatting the DVR erases all recorded footage. Your recording and system settings will NOT be erased. If you wish to restore
your DVR’s settings to its factory defaults, please see UPDATING THE SYSTEM MANAGEMENT MENU, pg.54.
NOTE: When a RECORD TIME LIMIT is set, the OVERWRITE feature will automatically become set to ON and can not be changed unless you
change the RECORD TIME LIMIT status to OFF.
