The Recording Schedule - Swann DVR4-5600 Operating Instructions Manual

The Recording Schedule

The first step in setting the schedule is choosing which channel you'd like to set
the schedule for. From the CHANNEL drop-down menu, select the channel you'd
like to set the schedule for.
If you'd like to set the schedule for more than one channel at a time, you have two
options. One option is to manually enter the same information for each channel
individually.
The other option is to choose ALL from the CHANNEL drop down menu. Selecting
this will apply the settings in the schedule to all channels on the DVR. If you want
to set a base schedule for all channels, and then configure them individually, select
ALL, set your basic schedule, and then fine tune channels one at a time. Changing
the ALL schedule will overwrite any schedule already set for individual channels.
The DVR schedule can be set to record using three different record modes.
ALARM: Will record only when the alarm function has been triggered.
GENERAL: Will record based on the general settings on the DVR - either constantly,
or when motion is detected, depending on your motion detection settings.
NO RECORD: As the name suggests, the DVR will not record.
