ate or framerate for all your cameras higher than the NVR can process. It is
recommended to set the bitrate and framerate to the following settings, based on the
number of channels your NVR has:
Recommended Frame Rate and Bitrate per Number of Channels
Number of Channels Frame Rate (frames per second) Bitrate (Kbps)
4 channels 30 8192
8 channels 30 4096
16 channels 15 3200
Configuring the Pre-Record and Post-Record Times
The NVR supports pre-recording to record video from before events (such as motion or
video loss) occur. The Pre-Record time determines how long the NVR will record before an
event occurs.
The Post-Record time determines how long the NVR will record after an event occurs.
