schedule can include specific no-record time slots for when users are usually in the office (or
other location where the camera is installed) alone at very early hours of weekday mornings.
The schedule can be easily customized to the user’s needs.
Note: manual recording overrides all other recording settings and will take place until a user
stops the recording or changes the recording mode.
CHANNEL:
Users can select all channels or a single channel.
There are five modes for recording: “MD,” “NORMAL,” “NO RECORD,” “I/O,” and “MD,
I/O.” Different colors are used to identify the different recording modes: Orange refers to “MD
record” green refers to “normal record,” gray refers to “no record,” deep red refers to “I/O
record,” and red refers to “MD
ˈ
I/O record
.”
To set up weekly schedules, click on the box of the recording status to be used (Alarm, Normal,
or No record) and then click on each box in the schedule timeline that this recording status is to
be applied to. See the “Record Schedule Setup” screenshot in the preceding figure. Each gray
block represents one hour on a 24-hour clock, i.e. the first block(next to each day of the week)
represents the hour from midnight-01:00 AM and the last block (below the “23” on the right
hand side of the screen) represents the hour from 11:00 PM-midnight. After setting the schedule,
click the “
” button at the bottom of the screen to save it.
Alternatively, left-click to drag the frames of the boxes in the schedule timeline where you want
to.
Another way to set up schedules is to create a schedule for one day of the week, and then use
the “FROM” and “TO” dropdown menus and COPY button settings to apply the setting from
one day to another day or a series of up to all seven days of the week. To do this, first create a
schedule for one day. Then, from the “FROM” dropdown menu, select the first day of the week
that the schedule should apply to. Next, from the “TO” dropdown menu, select the last day of
the week that the schedule should apply to, and click “COPY.” For example, to set a schedule
where the DVR uses MD recording from 2:00 AM until 1:00 PM, and normal recording from
1:00 PM until 10:00 PM on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, the process would
be as follows:
1. Click the orange box at the bottom of the screen to select “MD record.” Then, in the row of
gray boxes next to the “TUE.” box, click all of boxes from the third box from the left to the box
under the “12” at the top of the timeline(the box directly under the “12” should be selected) in
order to select the hours between 2:00 AM and 1:00 PM.
2. Click the green box at the bottom of the screen to select “normal record.” Then click all of
the boxes in the same row from the box immediately to the right of the box under the “12” at
the top of the timeline to the third box from the right to select the hours from 1:00 PM-10:00
PM.
3. The preceding steps set a schedule for Tuesday, which can now be copied to Wednesday,
Thursday, and Friday. To copy it, from the “FROM” field, first select “Tues.”
4. In the “TO” field, select “Fri.” and then click “COPY.”
5. To save this schedule, click the “
” button at the bottom of the screen.
