In addition, please install a web browser for the Internet in advance on the 2. Surveillance Solutions Using Local Storage The local storage system in NUD360-F is based on MicroSDHC memory cards. Below is the list of possible scenarios where the local storage could be used. - Page 3 Local Storage Manual Rev.1.0 Network Live Stream (for recording) Download Since the recording speed of MicroSDSC/SDXC is not as fast as Hard Disk, therefore one should keep in mind that MicroSDHC/SDXC based Camera Local Storage recordings may sometimes have less frames recorded compared to HDD recordings, while the quality of a single frame is just as good as in case of HDD recordings.
- Page 4 Local Storage Manual Rev.1.0 Disadvantages of “Local Storage Only” solution: Risk of dropped frames. When the amount of data is big, there is a risk that MicroSDHC cannot record them all in real-time speed, because it is not a hard disk. In such case, some of the video frames may be discarded by storage system.

- Page 6 Local Storage Manual Rev.1.0 Advantages of “Local Storage + FTP Server” solution: Cost efficient. Compared to NVR solution, this solution is more budget friendly. Nowadays there are many FTP hosting plans that are totally free of charge. Easy to maintain. You don’t need to maintain the cloud FTP hosting by yourself – the owner of the hosting would do it.
- Page 7 Local Storage Manual Rev.1.0 2-3. LOCAL STORAGE + NVR SERVER This is the most professional solution – to have the NVR server continuously record the best quality video from the camera while the local storage of the camera is being used for backup recording at the same time to have the redundant video evidence in case of NVR server failure (for example power loss of server PC, unexpected Windows OS reboot, network link failure between camera and NVR, etc.).
- Page 8 Local Storage Manual Rev.1.0 Advantages of “Local Storage + NVR” solution: Video backup. Camera’s local storage can act as a video backup system. The user does not have to invest into an additional backup server computer. Besides, the remote backup server would still be useless if the network connection from the camera fails, whereas the local storage based backup system does not require network connection.
- Page 9 Local Storage Manual Rev.1.0 2-3. Solution Comparison Table There are surveillance projects that require the highest degree of recorder security and reliability, such as banks, while some others merely need basic video evidence and prefer cost-efficient solutions, such as construction sites, pet hotels, residential, etc. The following comparison table gives a simple and clear overview of each recording solution and their value to the customer.
