Per Camera Configuration
Per Camera Configuration allows you to set the specific frame rate and
image quality for each camera for normal recording and during an alarm
event. Frame rate, given in Pictures Per Second (PPS) dictates how
smooth video will look on your screen.
A high frame rate (30 PPS) captures motion very smoothly but uses
more system resources. A low frame rate produces choppier video, but
uses less recording space.
Most applications do not require a continuous high frame rate of 30
PPS. A lower frame rate of 10-15 PPS is sufficient for most event
recording.
1. Select each camera channel and set up the configurations for
frame rate, quality for normal and event recording.
2. Click Camera Select and select the camera channel you want to
configure.
3. Select the frame rates in Pictures Per Second for normal recording
(Normal PPS) during Day, Night, and Weekend schedules.
4. Select the image quality in Kilobytes Per Second (kbps) for normal
recording (Normal Qlty) during Day, Night, and Weekend
Schedules.
5. Select the maximum frame rate to be recorded during an alarm
event (Event Max PPS) for Day, Night, and Weekend Schedules.
6. Select the image quality to be transmitted during an event (Event
Qlty) for Day, Night, and Weekend Schedules.
7. Select the kind of event (Event Act) that will trigger Event
Recording (Motion, Alarm, Both, or None) for Day, Night, and
Weekend Schedules.
8. Close Per Camera Configuration.
