16-Channel Digital Video Recorder

Figure 25 — Pre-Event setup screen.
When the DVR is in the Event Record mode it is possible to
have it record images before the event occurs. The Pre-Event
screen allows you to define how to handle pre-event recording.
You can turn individual cameras On or Off for pre-event
recording. The image speed can be set from 1.00 to 30.00 ips
(25.00 ips PAL), image quality can be selectable from Very
High, High, Standard and Basic, and image resolution can
be selectable from Very High (D1), High (Half D1) and
Standard (CIF).
You can set the amount of time to record prior to the event
by adjusting the Dwell. You can set the Dwell from 5 seconds
to 30 minutes. The longer the dwell set, the fewer maximum
ips can be set.
NOTE: When the DVR is in the Time or Time & Event mode, it ignores the pre-event settings and follows the
time settings.
