Scheduling

XProtect Basis+’s scheduling feature makes sure camera and

alert activity is enabled in accordance with defined periods of

time.

With the system’s default settings, cameras are automatically

online at all times, and you will only need to modify scheduling

settings if you require cameras to be online at specific times,
on specific events, or if you want to enable certain alerts.

If required, click the Scheduler… button in the Administrator

application to set or clear periods on a per-camera basis.

Archiving

XProtect Basis+’s archiving feature enables recordings to be
kept for as long as required, limited only by the available

hardware storage capacity.

The Archive Setup window lets you enable archiving, specify

which cameras you want to include in the archiving procedure,
specify the number of days to keep archived recordings,

specify daily archiving times as well as where archives should

be stored.

Click the Archive Setup… button in the Administrator

application to open the Archive Setup window.

General Settings

Clicking the General Settings… button in the Administrator

application lets you manage a considerable number of settings,
such as user rights, e-mail accounts, logging, etc.

Configuring Cameras

Camera settings are configured individually for each camera:

1. In the Administrator application’s Device Manager

section, click the plus sign next to the required device.
Select the required camera, and click the Settings…

button to open the Camera Settings for … window.
