Event; Log - ROHS SV-HVR2800 series User Manual

SV-HVR2800 Series DVR User Manual
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 won't have been copied. While backing
up, particularly when transcoding to AVI, the
DVR might take a few moments to register that
you've selected Cancel.
Note that, while the backup is in progress the DVR will be inoperable. 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).
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.

5.3 Event

The Event Search menu will show you recordings that were triggered by the DVR
detecting motion. Typically, the majority of
recordings based upon "Events" are likely to be
recordings triggered by the DVR'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.

5.4 Log

The Log Search screen operates in the same
way as the other search screens, but is able to
access the entire DVR's event log, not just
recorded footage. If you're looking for an event
which has no recorded footage associated with
it (such as a lost video signal, hard drive error,
Internet communication problem or similar) this
is where you'll find it.
