Delete a channel
You can delete a channel using the Admin panel. Deleting a channel removes all recorded files that are
associated with that channel. You cannot recover recordings for a channel after the channel is deleted. We
recommend that you stop recording or streaming for the channel before deleting the channel.
If you have multiple configuration presets, deleting a channel removes all recorded files that are
related to that channel across all presets. For important information about how channels are
indexed in Pearl-2 and how that affects deleting channels when configuration presets are used,
see Configurationpreset considerations.
To delete a channel, follow the steps below.
1. Login to the Admin panel as admin, see Connect to the Admin panel.
2. From the Channel menu, select a channel and click Status. The Status page for the channel opens.
