Important
• If the recording period for a schedule ends while motion
detection recording is in progress, recording will stop.
• The detection indicator is not affected by the [Duration]
setting. Be sure to take the detection time into account when
adjusting the motion detection settings.
• To perform motion detection on the Storage Server, you must
specify [JPEG] for the [Video Format]. Also, if you
simultaneously use more than one recording mode, all the
[Video Format] settings must be [JPEG]. An error message is
displayed if you try to use a format other than [JPEG] and
motion detection on the Storage Server at the same time.
• Make the [Priority] setting on the [Recording Settings] tab
lower than the priority of any of the other recording settings.
