Event (Recording Retention Time)
Range: 1 day more than the Normal Retention time (mentioned above) up to 1000
Default: 60 days
Event Recording Retention Time sets the maximum number of days that the FastTrace-R will
attempt to store images that have been recorded as a result of an (alarm) event. Once the Event
time has expired, the disk space will be reallocated for new images.
Note: Depending on the configuration of the system and the current recording rate at any
one time, images may be deleted (over-written) prior to the specified Event
retention time, due to the hard disks becoming full.
Camera Recording Information
An indication of how many days of recording is currently available is also provided. This figure is
calculated based on a range of variables including:
• Overall hard-disk capacity available.
• Quantity / rate of images being recorded (as defined in Camera Behaviour).
• Quality of the images being recorded (high quality image files are much larger than low
quality image files).
Warning: This is for indication only and will be subject to change based on
various conditions such as:
• Large amounts of scene change in a camera’s field of view (including the use of PTZ
cameras).
• High quantities of events and event data being stored.
• Dark, noisy images which can generate large files.
