You can also record on specific channels, for example, you can turn off the record function of CH1 and CH2 and then the system will only record video on CH3 and CH4.
5.6 Record Quality There are three levels of recording quality: High, Normal, and Low. Higher quality records the best images but uses more hard drive space.
