TruVision NVR 10 User Manual 31
There are two ways to start and stop a manual recording:
• Use the quick access toolbar
You can start/stop manual recording for each camera individually. Position the
cursor over a camera image and left- click the mouse to display the quick access
toolbar. Click the manual record icon to start or stop manual recording. The icon is
red when recording.
• Use the configuration menu
This option lets you select more than one camera at a time. Go to Video Schedule
> Manual Record to access the manual recording menu and check the boxes of the
cameras to start or stop manual recording.
Motion detection schedules
For IP cameras you can configure from the NVR the schedule when the camera can be
triggered by motion. However, you need to configure the area of the video display
sensitive to motion from the camera itself.
For information on scheduling motion detections, see “Setting up motion detection” on
page 36.
External alarm schedules
The NVR can be scheduled to record when an alarm is triggered by an external alarm
device such as a PIR detector or dry contacts. For information on scheduling external
alarms, see “Clearing alarm outputs manually” on page 41.
Protecting recorded files
There are two methods to prevent recorded files from being inadvertently overwritten or
deleted off the HDD. We highly recommend that important recorded events be
protected from deletion. Recorded files can either be locked or the HDD that the files
reside on can be set to read only.
