Defining a recording schedule

You can define a recording schedule for the camera in the “Schedule record”
window. The recording is saved on to the SDHC card in the camera. Although all
recordings are saved on a DVR, the camera’s SDHC card provides a backup in
case of network failure, for example.

The selected recording schedule applies to all alarm types.

You will be prompted to reboot the camera after making any schedule
modifications.

Post-event recording times

The post-event record time is used if you have the motion detection enabled.
When a motion alarm is cleared, the camera will continue recording based on the
value specified in this option. Options include: 5 (default), 10, 30 seconds, 1, 2, 5,
and 10 minutes.

To define a recording schedule:

1. In the “Channel parameters” folder click the

Schedule record

subfolder to

open its window.

2. Click the

Enable Recording

box to enable recording.

Note:

To disable recording, deselect the option.

3. Select the post record time from the drop-down list.

4. Select whether the recording will be for the whole week (All day recording) or

for specific days of the week (Section recording).
