Frame Rate
Frame Rate setup allows you to set
recording frame rate per camera. Frame
rate determines the number of still pictures
taken per second. The more frames taken
per second, the smoother the motion of the
video when played back. In NTSC video
format – the standard used in the United
States, 30 frames per second is considered
real-time. In PAL video format – the
standard used in Europe, 25 frames per
second is considered real-time.
In this DVR, there are two types of frame rates in effect: Normal and Event. The frame rate under set
under Normal will be the frame rate used by the DVR when there are no events – motion-triggered
events, sensor-triggered events or forced-recording events. When there are events, the frame rate set
under Event will be used instead. The effect is a more efficient use of hard disk space.
Procedure Using the Remote Controller or Control Panel:
1. In SETUP, select Recording->Frame Rate.
2. In Frame Rate Setup, use [UP],
[DOWN], [LEFT] or [RIGHT] to navigate
through the menu.
3. Use [ENTER], [SELECT], [+] or
[-] to change the values. In NTSC video
signal type, the range of possible values is
from 2 to 30. In PAL, the range of possible
values is from 2 to 25. Note that all
changes you make are always saved.
4. When you are done, press
[SETUP] or [BACK].
NOTES:
1. Ensure that total recording speed for 4 channels is not greater than 120fps 25/30fps CIF.
2. For an 8-channel DVR, ensure that total recording speed is not greater than 240fps 25/30fps CIF. An alert will
appear if you set the DVR to run more than its record speed.
3. The Normal frame rate should be less than or equal to the Event frame rate.
