Pre-alarm record time: This sets the length
of time showing events prior to a
motion detection or sensor-triggered
event that is included in the record.
Post-alarm record: Sets the length of time-
from 10 to 60 seconds - that is
added to the record after the event is
finished.
Expire time: The time - up to 60 days - that
an event is saved on the drive before
it could be overwritten (See Recycle

You can set up all channels with same values by selecting All and then configuring one
channel.

available.
