Record Service provides the ability to record an MPEG-2 Live Channel into an Archive. You can
either record continuously creating files of a fixed duration, or you can manually record a specific event.
Alternatively you can schedule recordings to happen at particular times and dates.
The record service has the following limitations:
Continuous and manual records under 1 minute in duration are not saved
The Record service can only use Archives on the same server as the Record service or on a NAS
The Record service needs an audio track to function correctly. If you recording a CCTV camera
then you will need to enable audio on the camera to create an audio track even if there is no
microphone on the camera.
You cannot record Producer channels

When you select Video Recorders > Configure Recorder the following page appears (FIG. 93):
If you are recording to an archive on a drive with less than 40GB space then Vision

will
refuse to enable the record service until this issue is resolved. If drive space falls below this
limit while recording is taking place then the service will continue to write to the disk until all
disk space is consumed. You will receive a warning when you enable a record service if the
drive space is less than 150GB. You can view the amount of space remaining on your drive in
the Archive > Configure Archive screen
