Advanced Recording; Alarm Recording - Nuvico EVLite EVL-400 Instruction Manual

5. ADVANCED RECORDING

Advanced recording comprises of alarm, motion and schedule recording. Unlike the continuous
recording mode which records 24 hours a day and seven days a week based on the same settings,
these three recording options provides the user the flexibility of customizing the record settings, thus
making the most of the hard disk drive usage. Moreover, using these features would shorten search
time when the needs arise, as the recorded can be directly accessed from the system logs.
