NOTE: The maximum recording speed of each camera group will be limited to 120 ips when set to
Standard
resolution, 60 ips when set to
High
resolution and 30 ips when set to
Very High
resolution
for all cameras.
For example, the maximum recording speed per camera will be 15 ips per camera when set to
On
and
Very High
resolution for two cameras in the same camera group. See the table below.

When set to
High
resolution for all cameras within the same camera group, the 8-channel model
DVR records video from each camera as fast as possible according to the preset recording speed
within the total ips of each camera group. When the total ips are higher than the maximum
recording speed of the camera group, the ips of each camera might decrease so as not to exceed
the maximum recording speed. For example, if you set to
High
resolution for all cameras within
the same camera group of the 8-channel model DVR, 15 ips for Time recording and 30 ips for Event
recording, the event-driven video from one camera will be recorded at 24 ips and the video from
the three other cameras will be recorded at 12 ips each when events are detected by one camera.
In case of 16-channel model DVR, selecting
High
resolution will decrease the maximum recording
speed of all the cameras within the same camera group. For example, the maximum recording
speed of all the cameras within the same camera group decreases to 20 ips per camera when set
to
High
resolution for one camera and set to
Standard
resolution for the three other cameras. See
the table below.
