Recording at a Video Server
At a Video Server, you can:
• Double-click a camera-image to zoom to full
screen, and start recording (if "Instant
Recording" is enabled);
• Start or stop recording by selecting camera
numbers(s) in the "Record" area of the main
screen (on the right);
• Click [ Record All ] to start or stop recording
all cameras at the same time.
Tip: The camera number appears in yellow for any
cameras that you select for manual/instant
recording.
Recording Priority: Manual (instant) recording will
override scheduled recording on the specific
camera. (Scheduled recording resumes when you
stop instant recording.) Conversely, instant
recording is not available while alarm recording or
pre-alarm recording is in effect for a specific camera
(and alarm recording will override all other types of
recording).
Exception: Beginning with v2.2, you can change
the recording priority if desired.
Related Topics: "Priority" tab under:
17.2 Recording Setup (in DSR Configuration).
Hard Drive Usage Bar: Check the bottom of the
Video Server screen for a hard drive usage
indication. If the coloured bar is 2/3 of the way
across or more, use the 'housekeeping' feature to
free up disk space by deleting or moving files.
Mapped Drives: Recording to a mapped drive is
subject to network speed/loading.
