You can define the recorded footage schedule in the Record menu, and the recorded image snapshot schedule in the Snapshot menu. By default, cameras are set to non-stop Regular recording (24 hours a day, 7 days a week). Motion detection recording is not set by default. Schedules can be set in hourly periods for individual days for each camera, with colour-coded options for:
- Regular/General for all regular recording.
- MD/Motion for recording on motion detection.
- Alarm for recording on triggering an integrated alarm.
- MD & Alarm for simultaneous alarm/motion detection recording.
- IVS for recording on triggering IVS (Intelligent Video Surveillance) such as a virtual tripwire.
- POS for point of sale transactions.
We recommend adding MD & Alarm & IVS to all channels to accompany your regular recording.
