Search: Event / Log Search

The Log Search displays a list of events,
presented in chronoloical order: the most
recent events will be at the end of the list.
The Log will list all events that the NVR
monitored, whether or not any footage was
recorded as a result.

While the backup process is executed, the NVR will display a pair of progress
meters. The top one indicates the progress of the current video event, the
lower one shows the overall progress.
To end the backup process before it's complete, choose Cancel. Some or all
of the incidents you selected will not have been copied. While backing up,
particularly when transcoding to AVI, the NVR might take a few moments to
register that you've selected Cancel.
Note that, while the backup is in progress the NVR will be inoperable locally.
It will continue recording and monitoring, but won't respond to the mouse
being moved or buttons being pressed (at least, not quickly - cut it some slack,
it's working really, really hard).
You'll still be able to access the NVR remotely via the SwannView Link software.
However, due to the system requirements of backing up footage, the NVR's
performance might be reduced.
Backing up footage can be a slow process - doubly so when transcoding to AVI.
If you're backing up more than a few minutes footage at a time, you've got time
to make a cup of coffee, maybe call a friend or catch up on some TV. Seriously,
it can take a while - talk to any video editor about transcoding and they'll tell
you it takes a long time.
The Event Search menu will show you recordings
that were triggered by the NVR detecting motion.
Typically, the majority of recordings based upon
"Events" are likely to be recordings triggered by the
NVR's motion detection feature.
The search function operates in the same way as the
main playback search: the only difference is you'll
select an Event Type rather than a Video Type.
