SPEED
A DVR usually records in a mode that
conserves hard drive space, but increases
the speed and quality for a short duration
to record the alarm event.
Note: Setting a camera speed to OFF
causes a camera to not be recorded during
an alarm. This allows other cameras to be
recorded at a higher speed.

CAMERA 4 QUALITY
The EX4 Plus 35 DVR uses MPEG-4 video
compression to extend the recording time
on the hard drive. The picture quality
option lets you trade off the amount a
picture is compressed versus the amount
of memory the picture takes up on the
hard drive. A higher picture quality (6)
means lower compression and therefore a
higher memory requirement. A lower
picture quality (1) means higher
compression. See Table 3-5, “Picture
quality settings” on page 3–10.
