Recording

1. From the live viewing screen, click > Settings > Camera Setup.

2. Select the channel for the camera you want to configure recording time for.

3. Select a period of time the camera will record video for when motion is detected.

NOTE

• You should configure motion detection settings to ensure objects of interest are being recorded. For full

instructions, see 13.2.10 Configuring Motion Detection Settings, page 50.

• Depending on your system, you may have the option to record continuously by setting Camera Record-

ing Time to Continuous. This option is only available on systems that use a hard drive for storage

rather than a microSD card, and only on cameras which have a wired connection to power.

7.2 Configuring Manual Recording

The system will automatically record video when motion is detected by a camera. You can also

use manual recording to record a video file with a custom start and stop time. By default, man-

ual recording is enabled on all channels.

To enable / disable manual recording:
