Chapter 10. NVR Setup -- Recording Configurations

10.1 General Settings

The "recording configurations" gives users the overall control of how and when a recording is
performed and the quality of different types of recordings performed on each channels. It can
help the recorder to operate with sufficient system resource by performing recording only when
it's necessary with adjustable recording frame rate.
You can define the following in "General Settings":
• Pre-Alarm/Post-Alarm recording length
• Recording frame rate
• Define to always keep a number of days of previously recorded data
• Enable/disable different recording types on different cameras
• Enable/disable audio recording
The "recording buffer" allows user to define "pre-alarm" and "post- alarm" time for event
recordings. The "pre-alarm" time sets the NVR to record in advance when an event is triggered.
The "post-alarm" time sets the NVR to continue recording for a period of time after an event
trigger is finished.
