The STORAGE screen enables the configuration and management of media
(video and images) storage.
MAIN ST O RAGE
Main Storage
The MAIN STORAGE is the internal primary place where all the videos, images, and
settings data for the NVR and cameras is stored. An external SATA drive can also be set
as the main storage.
The total capacity, used disk size and available disk space are displayed in megabytes.
The total estimated duration in hours that the NVR can record video on the main
storage is also displayed. The estimation is done based on the recording configuration
of all the cameras and the average bit-rate of all the added cameras. If no cameras are
added, then the default estimation is for a compressed video at a constant bit-rate of
1024 KBits/second (1 mbps).
Clicking on DELETE ALL IMAGES will delete all images stored on the NVR. Clicking on
DELETE ALL VIDEOS will delete all videos store on the NVR.
BACKUP ST O RAGE
Backup Storage
The NVR system can be configured to backup the videos, images and logs from the
main storage to secondary storage. Backup can be enabled from this page by checking
ENABLE BACKUP, selecting the items to be backed up, the location for the backup, and
the schedule for the backup. Additional storage devices must be connected for backup.
