Name Description
Built-in motion detection
Select this check box to record video in which motion (see "Motion
detection & exclude regions" on page 95) is detected. Unless post-
recording (see the following) is used, recording will stop
immediately after the last motion is detected.
On event
Select this check box to record video when an event occurs and
until another event occurs. Use of recording on event requires that
events have been defined, and that you select start and stop events
in the neighboring lists.
Tip: If you have not yet defined any suitable events, you can quickly
do it: use the Configure events list, located below the other fields.
Start Event
Select required start event. Recording will begin when the start
event occurs (or earlier if using pre-recording; see the following).
Stop Event
Select required stop event. Recording will end when the stop event
occurs (or later if using post-recording; see the following).
Enable pre-recording
Available only when the option Conditional is selected. Specify the
number of seconds for which you want to record video from before
recording start conditions (that is motion or start event) are met.
Enable post-recording
Available only when the option Conditional is selected. Specify the
number of seconds for which you want to record video after
recording stop conditions (that is motion end or stop event) are met.
Note that manual recording (on page 78) may be enabled. With manual recording, users of XProtect
Smart Client with the necessary rights (see "Configure user and group rights" on page 166) can
manually start recording if they see something of interest while viewing live video from a camera which
is not already recording. If enabled, manual recording can take place even if recording for individual
cameras is set to Never or Conditionally.
