Patrolling Settings
Note: Settings in this section are relevant only if you are using PTZ cameras for which patrolling
has been set up.
The regular patrolling of PTZ cameras may be interrupted, either manually or when a particular
event occurs. The Patrolling settings section lets you specify how many seconds should pass
before the regular patrolling is resumed after a manual or event-based interruption. Default is 30
seconds.
The settings in this section will apply for all installed PTZ cameras.
IMPORTANT: Users of the NetGuard-EVS are—in addition to manual control—able to stop a
selected PTZ camera's patrolling entirely. This takes place through a context menu in the
NetGuard-EVS view. Therefore, for NetGuard-EVS users, the number of seconds specified in the
Patrolling settings section does only apply when users manually control a PTZ camera; not when
users stop a PTZ camera's patrolling entirely. When NetGuard-EVS users stop a PTZ camera's
patrolling entirely, the camera's patrolling will resume only when the NetGuard-EVS user selects
to resume it.
Tip: PTZ patrolling for individual PTZ cameras is configured in the
Setup PTZ Patrolling window

Logfile Settings
The Logfile Settings section lets you specify where to keep the general log files containing
information about activity in the Administrator and recording server, and how long for.
Separate log files are generated for the Administrator and recording server service.
Logfile Path
By default, the Administrator and recording server log files are stored in the folder containing the
NetDVMS software.
To specify another location for your log files, type the path to the required folder in the Logfile
Path field, or click the browse button next to the field to browse to the required folder.
Days to Log
A new log file is created every day. A log file older than the number of days specified in the Days
to log field is automatically deleted. By default, the log file will be stored for five days.
To specify another number of days, simply overwrite the value in the Days to log field.
The current day's activity is always logged, even with a value of 0 in the Days to log field. The
maximum number of days to log is 9999.
