IMPORTANT NOTE
The system normally retains recorded video from all cameras for as long as possible, deleting the oldest video only
when required to create room for newly recorded video. Thus,
it is recommended that you use the Expiration
Configuration feature only when necessary
, such as when video must be deleted after a specific maximum time
period as required by law.
When using the feature, the Days of Recorded Video indicator should be higher than the greatest number of
minimum days configured for a camera in the Expiration Configuration area. For example, if you configure a
camera’s video to be stored for at least 30 days, the Days of Recorded Video indicator should be at least 30
(assuming the system has been recording video for at least 30 days). If the Days of Recorded Video indicator were
lower than 30, video recording would stop for that camera until the oldest video stored from that camera got
deleted (after 30 days).
To resolve issues with video expiration, you can expand your storage capacity by adding hard drives, reducing the
minimum time that video needs to be stored, or reducing frame rates or quality settings for the applicable
cameras. The best way to determine your needs is by trial and error; allow the system to record at your desired
settings and then monitor the Storage page to ensure that the settings will meet the storage requirements.
