SHUTDOWN DELAY (S)
The Shutdown Delay parameter is used to control how long you want to keep the ZEUS recording after
the ignition key is switched to the OFF position in the vehicle. For instance, once the ignition key is switched
OFF, the system will delay another x seconds (x seconds is the number that you have entered in the box from
10 seconds to 14400 seconds (4 hours)) before shutting off ZEUS system’s power completely. This technique
prevents potential file corruption or system crash the next time it boots up. The default value of 300 seconds is
pre-set in the DVR.
4.8.5
STANDBY TIME (S)
The Standby mode will enable the DVR to enter into a low power consumption state so that after the
vehicle’s ignition has been turned off, DVR can still be accessed via the Wi-Fi connection for DVR configuration,
live view and play back of video. When DVR enters standby mode, many hardware components are shut down
to conserve power, recording of video is disabled and SmartServer upload occurs.
4.8.6
MAXIMUM FILE SIZE (MB) & MAXIMUM FILE TIME (S)
The menu basically defines how video files are recorded on the removable hard drive(s). There are two
modes that video files can be recorded. (1) Video files can be recorded by file size “Maximum File (MB)” or (2)
by file length “Maximum File Time (s)”. In the field “Maximum File Size (MB)”, you can enter values ranging
from 10 MB to 300 MB. In the field “Maximum File Time (s)”, you can enter values ranging from 60 seconds to
7200 seconds (2 hours).
There are pros and cons associated to each value you enter into this box. It can either slow down or
speed up specific features of the DVR, for example, searching files in Play Back Mode, uploading video in the
SmartServer upload process.
It is recommended the “Maximum File (MB)” values be from 100MB to 300MB for optimal
performance. Each individual video file is broken into or stops recording when it has exceeded these
programmable values and a new video file is automatically generated to continue the recording process.
