Recording Video
Once you have installed the DVR following the instructions in
Chapter 2 — Installation
, it is ready to record. The DVR
will start recording based on the settings you made in the
Record
setup screen. See
Chapter3 — Configuration.
Recycle On
or
Recycle Off
. The factory default is
Recycle On
. It does this by recording over the oldest video once
the hard disk is full. Setting the DVR to
Recycle Off
causes it to stop recording once the hard disk is full.
Although you will be able to record without changing the unit from its original factory settings, you will want to take
advantages of the DVR’s many tools. See
Chapter 3 — Configuration
for detailed descriptions of the recording mode
options.
