” selection
respectively. If recording is “
ON
“, depending on the recording interval, the LCD will
be updated every 10 seconds or 1 minute. Therefore, when the LCD is set to “

will be updated every 10 seconds.
Selecting “
UPS

capabilities of the iServer will all operate on the battery. Due to heavy power
consumption the battery will not last more than an hour.
