1. Record mode

Record Switch: Check to enable the recording in this channel.
Stream Mode: Choose the recording quality. If you choose Dualstream, the system will record in both Mainstream & Substream.
PreRecord: If this option is enabled, the NVR starts recording a few seconds before an alarm event occurs. Use this option if your primary recording type is motion or I/O alarm based.

2. Record Schedule

This menu allows you to specify when the NVR records video and defines the recording mode for each channel. The recording schedule lets you set up a schedule like, daily and hourly by normal (continuous) recording, motion recording, I/O alarm recording & PIR recording (if your NVR supports). To set the recording mode, click first on the mode radio button (Normal, Motion, IO, PIR), then drag the cursor to mark the slots. The recording schedule is valid only for one channel. If you want to use the same recording schedule for other channels, use Copy function.

Channel: Select the channel to set its recording parameters.
Normal: When the time slot is marked green, this indicates the channel performs normal recording for that time slot.

Motion: When the time slot is marked yellow, this indicates the channel records when a motion is detected during that time slot.

IO: When the time slot is marked red, this indicates the channel records when the sensor is triggered during that time slot.

PIR: When the time slot is marked purple, this indicates the channel records when the PIR is triggered during that time slot.
No Record: A time slot marked black means that there is no recording scheduled for the time slot.
