4.5.2.7 Accelerometer 
 

 

 
 

This screen allows you to change the parameters of the optional Accelerometer (G-Chip). 
The settings are the sample frequency, this is either 5hz,10hz or 20hz the higher the figure 
the more accurate the data (1hz = 1 sample per second so 20hz = 20 samples per second), 
however as this has such a small impact on HDD space used we recommend you always 
use the highest 20Hz setting. 
 

4.5.2.8 Logging 
 

 

 

This allows you to set the amount of time in days for each type of data logged by the 
system irrespective of the video data recorded. There is an option to duplicate the server
