If the [SAVE] button is not pressed then the setting changes will not have been effected.
2. Setting the ID for the IR Remote Controller
It is important at this stage to set the ID for the IR Remote Controller. Every function of the DVR can be controlled
remotely by using the IR Remote Controller. Some functions on the SWE4 Series are easier to select by using it as
dedicated buttons are assigned for each function.
To set the ID for the IR Remote Controller enter the System Setup and select the System tab. Highlight the General option
and press [ENTER]. Highlight the IR Remote ID option and press [ENTER]. Use the up and down arrows to change the
value. This can be from 1 to 99. In most cases this value will be 1, but the same IR Remote Controller can be used to
control several DVRs. When the required value has been displayed, press [ENTER], then highlight the [SAVE] key and
press [ENTER].
To program the IR Remote Controller with the required ID press the [SCR/CH] key and the [F/O/E] key at the same time.
The red LED will come on. Now enter a two digit value. For the value 1, enter 01. The red LED will flash on and off for a
few seconds indicating that the programming of the IR Remote Controller was successful.
3. Setting the recording picture size
To change the recorded image size, enter the Setup menu. Use the left and the right arrows to access the System menu.
In the system menu highlight the General option and press [ENTER]. Press [ENTER] and a line will appear below the
image size.
Note
A full explanation on the three image sizes available can be found in the User Manual.
The image size relates to the resolution of the picture. This is the number of pixels in width x length which are used to
display an image. This has a bearing on the overall recording duration and the quality of the images on playback.
The option 720x576 is the largest image size and will give the sharpest picture quality on playback. 640x288 will produce
a softer picture on playback as will 352x288 produce an even softer picture.
When the required image size is selected by using the up and down arrows, pres [ENTER]. When finished, save and
press [ENTER].
4. Setting the number of recorded images per second
The required number of pictures to be recorded per second for each camera will need to be set. Enter the Setup menu
and select the Camera tab. In the Camera menu select Recording and press [ENTER]. By default, the Recording Quality
is set to 70. Any value less than 100 will cause the machine to record motion detection only. If continuous recording is
required, then this value should be changed to 100. This is done by highlighting the Quality value and pressing [ENTER].
Use the up and down arrows to change accordingly.
Note
A full explanation of the Recording Quality can be found in the User Manual. This should be read and fully
understood, as this will have a bearing on the storage time of the DVR.
The number of pictures that each camera will record is calculated in Frames per Second (fps). The default values set are
the maxim number of pictures possible relative to each image size. Once the image size has been set, then only the
values for each camera for that image size need to be adjusted. For the purpose of calculating the maximum storage time,
the value of one frame per second per camera is used. The installer must decide how many frames per second per
camera should be set based on the operational requirements of the camera.
To change the number of frames highlight the existing value under the required image size and press [ENTER]. Use the
