Search results
A search will usually produce a list of recording files, which may extend to several
pages. The files are listed by date and time. The most recent file is listed first. You can
then select a file to play it back. See Figure 16 on page 35 for an example of a search.
A recording file can be up to 1GB in size. Every day at midnight a new recording file is
started, and each event is also stored as a separate recording file. For more details
about how to archive multiple recording files, please reference the Archiving
instructions in the appendices of the user manual.
Only one file can be played back at a time.
