Chapter 6 — Recording
You can record video from cameras connected to devices registered in the administration service and iNEX
program provides three types of recording: Time-Lapse Recording, Event-Based Recording (Event and
Pre-Event) and Instant Recording. During Time-Lapse recording or Event-Based recording, the system
performs recording based on the settings of schedule Presets during the scheduled time. Instant recording
can be manually started or stopped while monitoring video.
When more than one recording mode is set up for the same period, the iNEX program records video with
the recording settings of the highest priority recording mode. The priority order of recording modes is as
follows: Pre-Event recording (lowest) → Time-Lapse recording or Event recording → Instant recording
(highest). In the same recording mode or between the Time-Lapse recording and Event recording mode,
the schedule higher up the list in the Schedule Setup window has priority over the other schedules. You
can change a schedule’s priority by changing its position in the schedule list.
First, check the following and run the Setup program.
 Services should be running on the system. Refer to 3.1 Running Services (p. 19) for details.
 Devices should be added to a device group. Refer to Chapter 13 — Device Management (p. 107)
for details.
NOTE: Recording is not supported for DVRs.
