Units
The settings within this menu can be configured in either the number of
Pictures Per Second or Milliseconds. Using the
option, use to select ms (milliseconds).
Note: To specify record rates less than 1PPS it is necessary to use
milliseconds.
Record operation
This allows the record, alarm rate and alarm pictures to be determined when
variable recording is enabled. The options available are:
• Off - Camera not recording.
• Standard - uses settings applied within the Standard Record menu.
• Variable - allows the record, alarm, pre-alarm rate and pre-alarm pictures to
be configured for each camera.
• Both - applies both variable and standard recording to the selected
camera.
Recording Rate
The Record rate and Alarm record rate can be configured for each camera
enabled in the Variable Recording settings. Select the camera to be configured
by pressing the corresponding camera key.

Record / Alarm Rate
This is the record rate for cameras selected in variable record rate. Select a
record rate in PPS (or ms) to be recorded on the cameras selected for variable
recording. The maximum record rate is 25PPS/30PPS (PAL/NTSC) for a single
camera.
Note: This option is not applicable when standard is selected in the 'Record
Operation' section.
Pre-Alarm Rate
This determines the rate the images will be continuously recorded into the pre-
alarm memory and are available for enhanced pre-alarm recording. Select a
record rate in PPS (or ms) to be recorded on the camera being configured.
Pre-Alarm Pics
When the pre-alarm record rate is set, it is also necessary to identify the
number of pre-alarm pictures that are captured which will be added to the
alarm recording and stored when an alarm is triggered.
Note: If the Schedule option is enabled the pre-alarm record rate can be set in
any of the day, night or weekend modes.
Pre-Alarm Used
The Pre-Alam Used section is read only and identifies the overall usage of pre-
alarm pictures for all cameras, (i.e. identifies how much alarm space is
available).
Important Note: The menu options will change when the schedule function is
enabled. The standard record and alarm record rate can be configured for Day
time operation, Night time operation and Weekend operation allowing the
system to automatically change the required number of PPS (or ms) between
the two time schedules, e.g. Day time would be business hours, Night time
would be outside of business hours.
