Technical Overview
In addition to replacing both a time-lapse VCR and a multiplexer in a security
installation, your DVR has many features that make it much more powerful and easier
to use than even the most advanced VCR.
This DVR converts analog NTSC or PAL video to digital images and records them on a
hard disk drive. Using a hard disk drive allows you to access recorded video almost
instantaneously; there is no need to rewind tape. The technology also allows you to
view recorded video while the DVR continues recording video.
Digitally recorded video has several advantages over analog video recorded on tape.
There is no need to adjust tracking. You can freeze frames, fast forward, fast reverse,
slow forward, and slow reverse without image streaking or tearing. Digital video can be
indexed by time or events, and you can instantly view video after selecting the time or
event.
Your DVR can be set up for event or time-lapse recording. You can define times to
record, and the schedule can change for different days of the week and for user-defined
holidays.
The DVR can be set to alert you when the hard disk drive is full, or it can be set to record
over the oldest video once the disk is full.
Your DVR uses a proprietary encryption scheme making it nearly impossible to alter
video.
You can view live video, search for images, and control your DVR remotely by
connecting via external modem or Ethernet. There is a USB port you can use to
upgrade the system or copy video clips to USB-IDE hard disk drives, USB CD-RW
drives, or flash drives.

Note
Recording higher quality images requires more storage space
and reduces the recording capacity of the hard disk drive.

defined during Time-Lapse Record Setup. Highlight the field beside Time Lapse
Recording and press

Setting the Maximum Amount of Time-Lapse Video Storage
This feature is useful when you want to keep recorded time-lapse video for a different
length of time than you want to keep recorded Event video. The time-lapse video is
stored separately from the Event video.
When Keep the continuous pictures is set to On, you can set the storage amount from
1 hour up to 490 hours depending on the hard drive capacity limits. When the DVR
time-lapse recording duration reaches the time limit specified in the Keep the
continuous pictures field, the DVR starts recording over the oldest recorded
time-lapse video. For example, if you turn on Keep the continuous pictures and set
the storage capacity to 40 hours, then the DVR will record 40 hours of time-lapse video
before overwriting it. The remaining space on the hard disk drive is allocated to Event
recording.

Note
You should use this feature only if you enable Event recording
during time-lapse recording. If you do not have Event recording

space for time-lapse recording.

The maximum storage time is only an estimate because the
amount of space required to store video varies depending on
many factors such as motion and image complexity.

Recording Video
After installing the DVR (see Chapter 2, Installation), you are ready to record. Unless you
change the setup, the DVR immediately begins to record video and continues to record
until the hard disk drive is full.
The factory default is set to Overwrite when the hard disk drive is full. When in the
Overwrite mode, the DVR continues recording when the hard disk drive is full by
overwriting the oldest recorded video. The DVR can be set to stop recording (Stop)
when the hard disk drive is full.
Although you can record without changing the unit from its original factory settings, you
can use the many tools to set the DVR for your recording needs. See Chapter 3,
Configuration for detailed descriptions of the recording mode options.
Note
When the DVR is recording video, the RECORD LED lights up on
the front panel and the icon displays on each camera screen.
Panic Recording
If you have set time-lapse or event recording, you can override these settings by using
the PANIC button to start recording immediately.
To activate Panic recording, press PANIC. When Panic recording, the DVR records
video regardless of the time-lapse or event recording schedule.
To release the Panic recording, press PANIC again.
Note
When the DVR is in the Panic recording mode, the RECORD LED
flickers and displays on each camera screen.
