Important Guidelines
The schedule presented on-screen applies to one channel
only.
Use the Copy function to quickly assign identical schedule
layouts to multiple channels at once.
Be careful when programming your schedule. It's one of the
most important aspects of setting up your DVR, and if it's
wrong in any way, it could lead to disastrous complications
later.
Camera: Select a camera that you would like to add a schedule
to.
Enable Schedule: Select this to enable the schedule.
Copy (Channel): Located at the base of the screen, this will
allow you to copy the schedule from the channel you're
editing to another channel or channels.
Note: The Action Options for Motion Detection and the
External Sensors will affect the way the schedule works.
By default, all channels are armed to use Motion
Detection as their recording mode, but not to use
external sensors (not included).

Record: Schedule

There are four types of recording to choose from.
Normal: The DVR will constantly record for any period where
Normal is selected. You won't miss anything, but constant
recording will fill your hard drive very quickly. (The DVR does
record the equivalent of a DVD film every two hours on every
channel, so that's rather a lot of data!) Typically, we suggest
Motion as a better recording mode for most users.
Motion: The recommended recording setting for most
applications. The DVR will only record when it detects
something moving in front of a camera, and will then only
record footage from the camera(s) that do detect motion.
Before setting any of your schedule to Motion, ensure that
Motion Detection is properly configured for the channel(s)
you want to associate with it. See "Camera Management:
Motion" on page 28 for more information about setting up
and configuring Motion Detection.
Alarm: The DVR is armed to record if it detects an alarm
event. This is the setting you'll want to use if you've connected
external sensors to the DVR's alarm block.
Motion & Alarm (M & A): Will trigger the DVR to record when
there is an alarm event and motion being detected.
Motion | Alarm (M | A): Will trigger the DVR to record on
either an alarm event or motion being detected.
None: As the name suggests, the DVR will not record
anything.
