WPS-100-DVR-4CH Installation and Users Manual

•MOTION SETTINGS

Used to set specic actions for when the DVR detects motion. Please refer to Section 6.2.2 for the details.

•COVERT

If a camera’s covert function is enabled, the video of this camera can only be seen if the user has logged

in an Administrator. The default setting is disabled.

• DWELL TIME

Used in conjunction with Call By Event, Dwell Time species how long the main display will show the camera

on the screen. The Dwell Time can be set from 3 to 60 seconds

• AUDIO

Select to record audio from the AUDIO IN with the camera. All cameras are set to N/A by default.

• RECORD QUALITY

Select the record quality for each camera. Values range from 1-9, with 1 the lowest quality and 9 the

highest quality. Note that the higher the quality setting, the larger the resulting le size.

• EVENT RECORD FPS

Set the Frames Per Second record rate for each camera when events such as motion trigger the camera

to record. Settings for Post Record time determines how long the DVR will record after the event triggers

recording. Press +/- buttons to select a value from 0 – 30.

Warning: The total Event Record FPS should not exceed the system recording capacity of 120 FPS at CIF

resolution, 120 FPS at Half-D1 resolution or 60 FPS at Full-D1 resolution. Conrm the system’s total Event

Record FPS by totaling the Event Record FPS for each camera connected to the system. The DVR will

automatically lower the actual record rate (once the total maximum FPS is reached) if set beyond the

system’s capabilities.

Note: The higher the FPS setting for a camera, the more uid the motion on playback. A slower FPS setting

could result in “choppy” video during playback. As a reference, live video equals 30 FPS. In surveillance, 15

FPS is recognized as very good quality video, while 7 FPS is typically sufcient for most cases.

• PRE-RECORD FPS

Pre-Record FPS is the frames per second pre-record rate for each camera when events such as motion,

video loss or alarm inputs trigger the camera to record. For this DVR, the Pre-Record FPS is always the same

as Event Record FPS. Settings for Pre-Record time determine how much time the DVR will record before the

event triggers recording. Please refer to Section 6.2.1, Section 6.2.2 and Section 6.3 for Pre-record time.

• NORMAL RECORD FPS

Unless disabled in the schedule (see Section xx), the DVR is always recording. If there is no event trigger-

ing the DVR to record (such as motion), the DVR is still recording and the recording is referred to as Normal

Record. Set the FPS for each camera to be recorded by pressing +/- buttons to select the value from a

minimum of 0 to a maximum equal to the Event Record setting.
