Events Active
Select whether the alarms and activity are on or off for day, night, and weekend
schedules. When an event is triggered it is automatically interleaved with the
non-event cameras, i.e. if camera 1 has an event, the recording sequence
would be 121314121314 rather than the standard sequence of 12341234,
effectively increasing the record speed of camera 1.
Tip: By using event interleave, it is possible to keep the record rate constant
but effectively increase the speed of alarm or activity recording.
Recorded File Size
The file or image size affects the quality of the images recorded to disk. A
larger file size has superior picture quality, but will fill the hard disk faster, so
less time will be recorded before the images will be overwritten. The file size
can be set between 6 and 45KB. The table below shows the image quality at
typical file sizes:
Image quality
LOW
MED
HIGH
Note: The equivalent image quality is representative in most circumstances;
however, camera views with large amounts of image detail may require the file
size to be increased to obtain a similar image quality.
Maximum Recording Time
The maximum recording time is the number of days and hours before the
images are overwritten. The maximum record time is calculated automatically
when the standard or event record rate is highlighted and changed. Note that
the maximum recording time will include the audio, if it is enabled in the
System Options menu page.
File Size (KB)
14KB
18KB
25KB
Tip: Reducing the file size (KB) or record rate (PPS) can increase the
maximum recording time.
Main Storage (Protected %)
The total video storage in Gigabytes (GB) is displayed along with the
percentage of video storage which is protected (will not be overwritten). Note
that the calculations for recording time assume there is no protected video.
Video that is protected will need to be manually unprotected before it can be
used for recording again.
Event Storage
This is a read only section and identifies how much of the hard disk has been
allocated to event partitioning. Event partitioning is configured within the
Record Option menu page and is detailed below.
Earliest Recording
The earliest recording displays the date and time of the first image on the disk.
Note: If an event partition is set (in the Event Setup menu) then the earliest
recording could be an event that is older than the first standard recording.
Earliest Event
This identifies the earliest event stored within the event partition section.
Note: This is only displayed when an event partition has been set.
