Keep Recording Files

for (1-999 days)

:

The NVR server will keep recording file of specific device for the

number of days you set here. The default value is

30

, and if you want

to modify it, please check the box to start configuring it. Available

value is among

1~999

days.

Specific Storage

You can assign a dedicated storage disk for a camera. By enabling

this option and assigning a specific disk, the video footages will be

recorded only to this selected disk rather than those you select on

Setup

page

Storage

tab. Please remember to configure the

storage-related settings for this specific disk on

Setup

page

Storage

tab after you enable this option.

Set the Schedule

Here you can configure camera

’s recording schedule on 7 days / 24 hours basis. The schedule

is split into segments of 20-minute length. By default, once a device is added to the system, its

schedule is automatically set to full time schedule recording and event handling. You should

configure it according to your system plan.

Go to

Setup

-

Schedule

tab, on

Schedule Setting

panel:

1.

Select the recording mode from

Recording Mode Bar

Tip

How to make proper storage arrangement

In NVR 3.0 system, there are two file-deleting mechanisms you can use based on different

needs. If both rules are set, the one with the threshold to be reached earlier will execute the

deletion first.

1.

Keep Recording Files for (1-999 days)

– Set this rule if you have the concern on

how long the recordings are kept, especially when you don’t want the old recordings

to stay longer in the system than a certain period.

2.

“Reserve space”

in the

Disk Drive List

on

Setup

page

Storage

tab - If the disk

space is more critical in your system, please give an approximate value here, the

system will always reserve this amount of space to store the newer recordings.

Given that you set the

Reserve space

as

30G

, while

Keeping Recording Files

setting is

5

days

, certain recording file will be deleted when it has been kept on disk for 5 days, despite

that there is still plenty of available disk space.

Before setting up the rules, you can make use of a handy storage calculator provided by

ACTi to find out the estimated storage your system requires on ACTi corporate website.
