Manual recording
The NVR lets you manually record video during live view. This can be useful if you
know that the NVR is not currently recording and you see something of interest on a
camera window that should be recorded.
Once a manual recording is started, the recording continues until it is manually
stopped. If an alarm occurs during a manual recording, the alarm recording has priority
over the manual recording. If a scheduled recording is already in progress when a
manual recording is started, it continues to record as scheduled.
You can check to see if a camera is recording manually by looking at the icon on the
quick access toolbar. The icon is red when manually recording. Default is off.
