Digital Video Recorder

NOTE: When the storage device does not have enough space to record video data longer than the preset Limit
Time-Lapse Recording period, the DVR records over the oldest video data (time-lapse or event video)
as it would in the Recycle mode even if this feature is turned On.
The maximum storage time is only an estimate because the amount of space required to store video
varies depending on many factors such as motion and image complexity.
CAUTION: When more than one disk is installed in the unit, the DVR records video on the disks
sequentially based on time. And these sequentially recorded videos have the advantage
that you can search recorded video easily even though a disk is removed from the unit.
However, video recorded in the same time range might be saved on different disks by
channel and by the type of recording mode. Once the Limit Time-Lapse Recording is
set to On, the DVR will maintain this recording limitation even after disabling the function.
If you want the DVR to record video on the disks sequentially based on time again, you
must format all disks that are currently used for recording.
