Component Requirement
Archiving Path
Only editable if not using dynamic paths for archiving (see "About
archiving" on page 127). Path to the folder in which the camera's
archived recordings should be stored. Default is C:\MediaDatabase.
To browse for another folder, click the browse icon next to the
relevant cell. If you change the archiving path, and there are
existing archived recordings at the old location, you are asked
whether you want to move the archived recordings to the new
location (recommended), leave them at the old location, or delete
them. Note that if you move archived recordings, XProtect Go will
also archive what is currently in the camera database. In case you
wonder why the camera database is empty just after you have
moved archived recordings, this is the reason.
Delete Archives
Click button to delete all archived recordings for the camera.
Recordings in the camera's regular database will not be affected.
The ability to delete is available regardless of whether you use a
single archiving path or dynamic archiving paths.
IMPORTANT: Use with caution. All archived recordings for the
camera are permanently deleted. As a security measure, you are
asked to confirm the deletion.
Retention time
Total amount of time for which you want to keep recordings from
the camera (that is, recordings in the camera's database as well as
any archived recordings). Default is 7 days.
Retention time covers the total amount of time you want to keep
recordings for. In earlier XProtect Go versions, time limits were
specified separately for the database and archives.
