PLAYBACK FOLLOWING TIME CHANGE
The DVR uses the time and date to index video on the hard disk drive so you can find it later.
Changing the time can cause the DVR to work improperly, when you try to play back video. If
you set the hour ahead, this is not a problem. But, if you set the hour back, there will be more
than one recording with the same time stamp.
Such as during the October Daylight Saving Time changeover, if you try to search for video
between 1 am and 2 am, the recorder may not operate properly because there will be two
hours of recorded video during this time period. To view video during this overlapping time
period, you must start playback before 1 am, then recorder will play both hours between 1
am and 2 a.m.
You cannot do a backward search through the overlapping time. But, you can do forward
search.
The Time and Date and the DST time can be changed from the front panel, the Mouse or the
Remote Control
