Recording: Schedule

Camera No.:

 

Select a camera that you would like to configure.

Enable:

 

A Motion Detection recording schedule is enabled by default.

Normal:

 The NVR will constantly record for a set period of time.

Motion:

 The NVR will only record when motion has been detected from 

one or more cameras.

None:

 As the name suggests, the NVR will not record.

In the above example, a Motion Detection recording schedule has been 
created for 06:00 a.m. to 06:00 p.m. and a Normal recording schedule 
for 06:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. Sunday to Saturday. Using the mouse, you 
can click on a particular square or section to change or select the de-
sired recording mode (Normal, Motion or None) then click and drag the 
mouse over the squares corresponding to your desired time period.

•  Click the “Default” button to revert back to default settings.
•  Use the “Copy to” button to apply all settings to the other cameras.
•  Don’t forget to click “Apply” to save settings.
•  Right-click the mouse to exit the Menu.

By default, a Motion 
Detection recording 
schedule has been 
enabled for each con-
nected camera. You 
can however change 
the schedule according 
to what fits in with your 
needs. The schedule is 
presented as a 24 hour 
7 days a week grid and 
is colour coded to rep-
resent the event type.
