RECORD QUALITY AND RECORD IPS
A brief explanation of IPS and recording quality will help you get the most of your system and the storage space you
have.
IPS (images per second) is the rate that the camera captures video. The less the IPS, the choppier the video will be,
the higher the IPS the smoother the video will be. However, the higher the IPS, the more space on your hard drive the
video will take. Note that you have a TOTAL of 120 IPS (30/camera) for all the cameras combined.
To save space, and optimize your video logs, it is often recommended to set the normal record IPS low, so that when
nothing out of the ordinary is happening the video quality is low, but not taking up too much space. You can then set
the Event Record IPS and the Pre-Record IPS to a higher IPS so when an event occurs you guarantee a better quality
video. This will help save space so you will not run out of hard drive space when an important event happens, and
provide you with the optimal video for the times when it is most necessary.
Record Quality
– Sets the record quality for this camera. Press +/- buttons to select the value (1-9, with 1 the lowest
(rough) quality, 9 the highest (fine) quality).
Event Record IPS
– the IPS (Images Per Second) for this camera if an event (Motion, Alarm) occurs for this camera.
This camera will be recorded at this rate for post-record time since the event occurs. (Please refer to the following
sections for post-record time.) Press +/- buttons to select the value (30 (NTSC)/ 0 – 25 (PAL), discrete).
Pre-record IPS
– the Pre-record IPS for this camera if an event (Video Loss, Motion, Alarm) occurs for this camera.
This camera is recorded at this rate for Pre-record time before the event occurs. Please note that the total
Event Record IPS / Pre-record IPS
should not exceed the system recording capacity (NTSC: 120/CIF, 60/Half-D1, 30/
Full-D1; PAL: 100/CIF, 50/Half-D1, 25/Full-D1), or the system will lower the actual rate automatically at recording.
Normal Record IPS
– the normal record IPS for this camera. This camera will be recorded at this rate if no event
occurs. Press +/- buttons to select the value (0 –
Pre-record IPS
for this camera, discrete).
NOTE:
The total Event Record IPS/Pre-record IPS can not exceed the system recording
capacity (NTSC: 120/CIF, 60/Half-D1, 30/Full-D1; PAL: 100/CIF, 50/Half-D1, 25/Full-D1),
or the system will lower the actual rate automatically at recording.
