Automatically calculates the maximum FPS for each active channel after
you choose a resolution setting in the Normal recording mode.
Event Auto
Automatically calculates the maximum FPS for each active channel after
you choose a resolution setting in the Event recording mode.
The Normal and Event frame rate calculators on the left side of the above menu are there
to quickly add the total frames per second requested via the resolution settings, FPS, and
cameras selected. Up to 240 frames are available for each group of 8 channels that
your DVR model may contain (240 for 4 and 8 channel models, and 240 + 240 for the 16
channel model). If a fast recording speed (high FPS) is needed with many cameras,
you can select a lower resolution to accomplish this. If the highest resolution setting is
needed on most of your cameras, then you may need to select a lower FPS (recording
speed) for some cameras. The numbers on the calculators will turn red if your demands
are too high. Lowering the resolution or FPS on some cameras will correct this situation.
Clicking on the Auto button will quickly adjust the overall settings for you.
3.3 Event Setup
As mentioned above, video motion detection and alarm / sensor recording are a great way
to conserve hard drive space, limit recordings to meaningful activities, and create a means
to quickly find recordings that are pertinent. The video motion detection feature built into
this DVR is designed to be one of the best in the industry with 11 sensitivity settings and a
selectable detection grid of 330 small squares (22 x 15) per camera. Pinpoint accuracy is
made possible with this type of grid system.
