Recording settings
This function is only available in the one-channel and four-channel encoders, which
have a SD card.
It is not available in eight-channel and 16-channel encoders.
Defining a recording schedule lets you specify when the encoder records video and
which pre-defined settings are used. Each camera can be configured to have its own
recording schedule.
The schedules are visually presented on a map for easy reference. See Figure 9 below
for a description of the recording schedule window.
