This section shows you how to operate and
manage the DVR when it gets in the way.
3.1 Configuring Recording
Settings
Recording time will vary depending on the image
size, recording rate, and the capacity of the
hard-disk drives. Generally, the DVR comes with
a built-in hard-disk drive for continuous recording
from one to four weeks under most recording
conditions. The table below shows the possible
recording times based on a 20GB hard-disk drive
at certain refresh rates and the corresponding
image quality. With one or more hard-disk drives
in operation, please calculate the recording time
using the table below in accordance with your
requirement. For an NTSC unit, for example, if
the unit is set to record images with BEST quality
at a 30 fps record rate, normally a 20GB
