Chapter 11 Configuring recording settings This chapter provides instructions on how to define the recording settings of your DVR. This chapter covers how you can configure your initial recording settings, schedule recordings, protect your recorded files, and set up your HDD for redundancy. Initializing recording settings Before you can set up your DVR to begin recording, you must first configure general recording settings for the analog cameras. Note: IP cameras cannot be configured from the DVR.

Chapter 14 Camera management The TVR 60 can support up to 16 analog and eight 4-CIF IP cameras. However, the number of IP cameras supported can depend on the resolution of the IP cameras and on the number of analog cameras enabled. For a complete list of the analog and IP camera numbers that can be supported, see Appendix F “Camera matrix” on page 149. An example is shown in Table 19 below.
13BChapter 14: Camera management Figure 38: Camera management screen Enabling or disabling analog cameras When you turn on the DVR the status of all 16 IP cameras is automatically on and all the cameras are recording, even if there are not 16 analog cameras connected. You can disable the unused camera links in order to save space on the hard drive. You may also need to disable analog cameras in order to be able to add more IP cameras to the system.
13BChapter 14: Camera management Configuring IP cameras Use the Camera Management menu to set up IP cameras. You can also add or delete IP cameras. Only TruVision IP cameras can be configured from the DVR. The DVR detects and lists all TruVision IP cameras in the IP Camera Settings screen. By default they all have the same IP address.
