Searching event logs
There must be an SD card inserted in the camera to be able to record logs. The
log function is not available for the bullet cameras as they cannot be used with an
SD card.
The number of event logs that can be stored on a SD card depends on the
capacity of the card. When this capacity is reached, the system starts deleting
older logs. To view logs stored on the camera’s SD card, click Log on the menu
toolbar. The Log window appears. See Figure 17 on page 47.
Note: You must have view log access rights to search and view logs. See “User
management” on page 37 for more information.
