PPS
PPS stands for Pictures Per Second and refers to how many pictures will be captured in 1 second. The more PPS, the smoother the video, and the less
PPS the more choppy the video will appear.
Normal record PPS will adjust the PPS for full record and manual record mode.
Alarm record PPS will adjust the PPS for motion detection and external alarm detection. Generally the normal record PPS will be lower to minimize
the amount of HDD space used when non-important events are happening and the alarm record PPS is higher to use smooth video recording when
motion or alarms are triggered.
To Change the Normal Record PPS:
1. Select to set the Normal Record PPS.
2. Use the mouse wheel or the directional buttons to adjust the PPS.
3. When in 720 x 240, you can change each camera’s PPS.
4. When in 360 x 240 The Normal PPS for CH1 and CH2 will change together,
as will CH3 and CH4.
5. Press ENTER or select to save settings and return to Record Setup Menu.
6. Exit the record setup Menu to save changes.
7. Exit the Main Menu . The DVR will take a few moments to load the settings.

RESOLUTION:
You can set the resolution to:
NTSC Mode
1. 720 x 240 (max 60 PPS)
2. 360 x 240 (max 120 PPS)
PAL Mode
1. 720 x 288 (max 50 PPS)
2. 360 x 288 (max 60 PPS)
Note: NTSC video standard is the video standard for North America. Europe and other
countries use the PAL video standard. NTSC videos or cameras will not work on
PAL television sets or monitors.
Changing the resolution will affect the picture quality. A higher resolution will produce a better
quality picture; however, footage recorded in a higher resolution will take up more space on the
hard drive. The higher the resolution causes the maximum number of PPS (pictures per second)
be lowered.
