One-minute manual recording (Record Now)

A manual recording with duration of one minute can be initiated at the maximum frame rate. The manual
recording is displayed on the Timeline and [Live Events Log] as [Manual recording (<username>)]. This is
handy for capturing random events not associated with sensor recording or outside preset recording times.
To initiate manual recording:
1. Select a Video Window for manual recording.
2. Click [Record Now].
Note
The [Record Now] function records at the maximum frame rate. Extended recording time will use
additional disk space on the Storage Server. It is limited to 5 fps for VK-Lite.
The [Record Now] function is only enabled if a Storage Server is configured for the camera.
Recording will be for approximately one minute. The actual duration of recorded video may vary
depending on settings and network delays.
The priority of an event created by a manual recording using [Record Now] will always be Priority 1.
The [Record Now] function allows recording video in JPEG format. However, video will be recorded in the
MPEG-4 format if and only if recording in MPEG-4 is scheduled (VB-C500VD, VB-C500D, VB-C60).
If audio transmission is enabled on the camera, audio recording is also performed.
