REC SET
The REC SET settings define the recording characteristics of the DVR.
As has been described previously use the arrow and ENTER buttons on the r/c to highlight and
change the settings (unless otherwise described)
We recommend using 4D1 (all channels recorded at D1 Resolution) or
2D1_2CIF = Channels 1 & 2 recorded at D1, Channels 3 & 4 at CIF
Resolution (This option increases recording time for a small reduction
in quality on what are normally the less critical cameras).
The TIME SLICE is the
time period over which
a video file is saved if
the DVR is not turned
off – we recommend it
is set at 30 minutes
The ENCRYPT function
is not currently
supported
The SD Function is important to understand:
LOST REC configures the DVR so that if the
HDD does not exist (or is faulty) the video
will be recorded to the SD Card – so all SD
Card DVR's must be configured with this
setting. This also allows a HDD DVR to have
an SD Card back up should the HDD fail.
NO REC only records video to the HDD.
MIRR REC records video to both SD card and
HDD
TIME LIST is used with the TIME setting
(under the RECORD MODE options) so that
the DVR only records between pre-set times
The SUB-STREAM setting is used with Live-
View systems and use is covered in a
separate manual.
Highlight the SAVE option and press the
ENTER button on the r/c to save the changes.
All Vision systems will be PAL unless
specifically ordered to be otherwise.
Auto Record Mode is used for 95% of
Vehicle applications as means DVR
always records when it is running.
If recording 4 cameras set bit rate to
1600 as processor capacity cannot
process data any faster.
These settings set up the recording configuration for
each camera channels individually.
To select the camera to be configured highlight the
CHANNEL number and press ENTER on the r/c to change
the channel number.
Always set the QUALITY setting to 1 (best quality)
We recommend a FRAME RATE of 15 (15 fps) which
offers the best compromise of quality and file size.
Turn RECORD ON only for those channels that are to be
recorded (recording channels with no cameras
connected just wastes storage space).
Turn AUDIO to record sound – But note that only
Channel 1 and 4 have audio hardware connected.
NORMAL mode means that the
oldest video is overwritten when
memory device is full.
ALARM DELAY sets time period
after an alarm event occurs that
video is recorded for.
PRE RECORD sets time before an
alarm event that video is
recorded for.
Note that Alarm Files will not be
overwritten when memory is full
