 •EVENTRECORDFPS

Set the Frames Per Second Record rate for each camera when events such as motion or alarm inputs

trigger the camera to record. Settings for Post Record time determines how long the DVR will record

after the event triggers recording. Please refer to Section 9.3.6 and Section 9.3.8 for Post-record time.

Select a value from 0 (off) - 30.

Note: The total Event Record FPS should not exceed the system recording capacity of 240 FPS at CIF

resolution, 120 FPS at Half-D1 resolution or 60 FPS at Full-D1 resolution as set in Pre-Camera setup in

Section 9.3.4. Check the system’s total Event Record FPS by adding each camera connected to the

system’s individual FPS.. The DVR will automatically lower the actual record rate if set beyond the

system’s capabilities once the total maximum FPS is reached.

 •PRE-RECORDFPS

The Frames Per Second Rre-Record rate for each camera when events such as motion, video loss or alarm

inputs trigger the camera to record. For this DVR, the Pre-Record FPS is always the same as Event Record

FPS. Settings for Pre-Record determine how much time the DVR will record before the event triggers

recording. Please refer to Section 9.37, Section 9.3.6, and Section 9.3.8 for Pre-record time.

 •NORMALRECORDFPS

Unless disabled in the schedule (see Section 9.3.10), or this setting is set to 0 the DVR is always recording.

If there is no event triggering the DVR to record (such as motion or alarm inputs), the recording is referred

to as Normal Record. Set the FPS for each camera to be recorded at from a minimum of 0 (off) to a

maximum equal to the Event Record setting.
