12.3- NVR Settings
The NVR settings menu is used to assign Cameras to the NVR, configure Camera settings such as
Privacy masks and Motion Detection, configure settings for NVR Recording and Alarms, check status of
and format the NVR HDD(s), and configure System settings.
NOTE that the 4CH NVR has no physical Alarm inputs. So “Alarms” or “Alarm inputs”, as they pertain to
the 4CH NVR, consist of either:
The DI Input of a Wirepath IP Camera (when DI Input (Camera) is Enabled in Alarm Trigger
Setup), or
The Alarm input of a Wirepath Encoder (when DI Input (Camera) is Enabled in Alarm Trigger
Setup), or
In some cases, a Motion event as detected by a Wirepath IP Camera or Encoder.
Any differences in how these alarms or events are handled by the NVR will be specified below, when
appropriate.
