Basic Setting - EverFocus PARAGON Series Instruction Manual

5.3.1 Basic Setting

Camera: Select the camera number.
Title: The title setting allows you to assign a title to selected camera. Each title supports up to 16
characters. The on-screen keyboard will appear when you click the title option.
Install: Check the box to enable the current camera. To take full advantage of the DVR's recording
abilities, any unused cameras should be disabled.
Covert: Check the box to hide the camera picture in live and sequence modes. However, the image will still
be recorded and can be played back by any user who has playback rights.
Record Mode: 2 record modes are available.
Normal + Event: This recording mode includes continuous and event recording.
Event Only: Video will be recorded only when events occur.
Resolution: Select recording resolution based on video format.
NTSC: 704x480 / 704x240 / 352x240
PAL: 704x576 / 704x288 / 352x288
Record Quality: Select an image quality for recording. There are five different qualities available: Superior,
High, Standard, Basic and Low. A higher image quality uses more HDD space.
Normal Speed: Record rate in frames per second (FPS) for continuous recording. The speed is limited to
the maximum recording rate of the DVR (displayed in the bottom left corner) divided by the number of
installed cameras. If the resolution option is changed, the unit of this field will also be changed.
Recording capacity (shown next to the Normal Speed field): The number here indicates the remaining
recording capacity available for all 16 cameras. When this number is positive, it means the record speed
can still be increased. If this number is negative, it means the recording capacity has been exceeded,
and the user must lower Normal Speed or Resolution. This number must be positive or zero in order to
save changes, otherwise an error window will display "Total FPS exceed maximum recording rate,
discard changes!" and the settings for all cameras will return to previous values.
Event Speed: Record rate in frames per second (FPS) for event recording.
