*1 Do not use H.264 in small-scale systems, as this can have a negative effect on system operation.
*2 The data size of recorded audio is calculated using a frame rate of 10 fps per camera.
*3 Total number of all types of events.
*4 Assumes a standard resolution ([Image Quality] setting is [3]) and that the receive size and display size are the same. If the receive
