Normal and Event Record Rate (IPS)
When an alarm occurs, DigiMux records all video based on the Event Record IPS
setup. After the alarm duration expires, or the alarm is no longer in effect, the record
speed returns to Normal Record IPS. Normally, you would set Event Record IPS to a
value equal or greater than Normal Record IPS. Depending on your application, you
can reduce record speed (or turn it off completely) during the alarm period. If Event
Record IPS is set to OFF, DigiMux stops all recording during alarms.
Pre-Alarm Video Quality and Record Rate
The quality of the pre-alarm video is the same as the quality setting for normal record
video. The quality of the post-alarm video is the same as the quality setting for event
record video.
The record rate (IPS) of the pre-alarm video is same as that of the normal record video.
Event Record Mode
The setting for Event Record Mode indicates how an event is recorded from the
camera on which it occurs to the unit. When an alarm is detected, the Event Record
Mode determines how the event video is recorded in terms of camera sequencing.
More fields from the alarmed camera or cameras are recorded during an Alarm In or
Motion Detect condition than for cameras that are not the subject of an alarm. When
an alarm occurs, the event is recorded in one of three ways, as shown in the figure that
