4.11.2 User
Rank
The User Ranking structure allows the option to assign a privilege system (1-10 where one has the most rights) to
users of the DVR. For example. Since only one user is allowed to use the PTZ controls at any one time, an
administrator with a higher rank can kick another user out and take control of the PTZ.
The User Rank option affects:
SETUP
ACCESS
Each DVR can only have 1 user accessing Setup at any given time. A user with a higher rank
will kick another user out and then open Setup.
PTZ CONTROL
Each DVR can only have 1 user using the PTZ controls at any given time. A user with a higher
rank will kick another user out and then open the PTZ controls.

Instant Recording
Instant Recording is a feature that allows manual starting of a camera recording, superseding the current schedule.
When Instant Recording is activated on a camera it also flags the specified video so that an Index Search can be
performed at a later date to bring up all the Instant Recording instances.
This can be used, for example, when a suspicious object or person is being recorded and you want to flag that section
of video for easy retrieval at a later date.
Activate Instant Recording
1) 1. From the Live View screen, double right-click on the camera on which to enable instant recording. An INSTANT
label will be placed on the upper right corner of the video.
2) To turn the Instant Recording option OFF, double right-click the video a second time.
Searching ‘Instant Record’ Video
