Simple and Advanced Modes
This System allows you to configure the 
Recording Options in two ways:
•  Simple Recording: Simple recording 
will set all cameras to behave in the 
same way, with the same resolution and 
FPS. In Simple Recording, the 
recording type can be set to either
Continuous, Motion, Alarm or None.
•  Advanced Recording: Advanced 
recording will allow you to configure 
each camera to behave in a different 
way, based on quality, FPS and 
resolution. In Advanced Recording, the 
menus are separated so that you can 
set each camera to record in 
Continuous, Motion and Alarm at the 
same time.
For example, set the system to record 
in Continuous, Motion and Alarm at the 
same time. A camera will be in 
continuous recording, however when a 
Motion or Alarm event is detected, the 
onscreen indicator will switch to M or 
A, and the event will be logged in the 
system. 
To switch between Recording Modes, 
change the Recording Mode setting on the 
RECORDING OPERATION tab to either 
Simple or Advanced.
