The right click menu in the Main Interface mode (Picture 3) allows you
to access the Main Menu interface (Picture 4). To set up the recording
parameters and settings of your DVR, go to [Main Menu]
[Record] to
enter into [Record Setup] menu (Picture 7).
The [Record Setup] menu (Picture 7) allows you turn the recording
status for each camera channel on and off, set the recorded image
resolution and enable audio. This menu also allows you to schedule
your recording times and set your recording interval durations.
The [RECORD] button on your Record Setup Menu (Picture 7) allows
you to turn each camera channel’s recording ability on or off. The
[QUALITY] button gives you the option of choosing the quality of your
recorded images from a drop down list for each individual camera
channel. The [AUDIO] button allows you to turn the audio input on or
off. When the audio is turned off, the DVR system will not record
audio and you will not hear sound during playback of your recorded
events.
The [REC MODE] button allows you to setup the system to record 24
hours a day, on a set schedule or when motion is detected. The
[PACK TIME] button allows you to set the maximum recording time for
all recorded files to be 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes.
To record 24 hours a day, set the Rec Mode to Always. To record on motion or a set schedule, select Time Schedule
Record and click the “Schedule” option. A “Schedule” interface will open as shown in Picture 8. You can choose
from a pull down menu at the top of your Schedule interface to adjust the recording options for all channels or from
the channels specified in the drop down menu if you prefer to set the recording parameters for each individual
channel separately.
You are also given the option of setting up the date parameters of your scheduled recordings by choosing from the
drop down menu on the bottom of your Schedule interface in the “From” and “To” options. Checking the ALARM
(motion recording), GENERAL (always recording) and NO RECORD boxes will allow you to further customize options
for your scheduled recordings.
If you decide that you do not wish to customize your system recording schedule, the Default recording schedule is as
follows:
Hr 01:00 am - 07:59 am: No recording (Not recording)
Hr 08:00 am - 18:59 pm: Normal recording
