Record 2 Settings Menus
Built-in dual technology allows the recording of two information streams, one designed for high resolution
playback on a PC, and the other for real-time viewing over a low bandwidth network, such as a cellular
link. In the event of an emergency, access the video on-line with a cell phone or PDA via your cell network
plan to assess the situation.
The Record 2 settings are less than the highest setting for speed and quality of the primary recording
stream. Use the Record 2 Settings menus to set the FPS, picture quality, and recording resolution for up to
4 standard analog cameras.
