Control recording with a USB keyboard or mouse
In addition to using the red button or on-device buttons to toggle recording, you can set up custom
configurations that determine how an attached USB keyboard or mouse works to control recordings. By
default the left mouse button or the keyboard Enter key toggles recording in the same way as the default on-
device button behaves. Press and release the button or key once to start recording and again to stop.
The device supports keyboards with media buttons such as Play/Pause and Volume Up/Down or a mouse with
up to three buttons.
When configuring the mouse or keyboard for recording, set the Down actions. Down action is chosen so the
recording starts or stops as soon as the button or key is pressed, avoiding any delay that may happen before
the finger is released.
To configure a start recording and stop recording button:
1. Connect to the admin interface using your preferred connection mechanism. See Connect to the Admin
Interface .
2. Login as admin.
3. Select Button Actions in the Configuration section; the button action configuration page is displayed.
4. Pick Start Recording from the Down drop-down list for the desired mouse button or keyboard key
(from Enter, Play/Pause, Volume Up, or Volume Down).
5. Pick Stop Recording from the Down drop-down list for the desired mouse button or keyboard key
(from Enter, Play/Pause, Volume Up, or Volume Down).
6. Click Apply.
Save directly to USB drive
Your VGADVI Recorder supports saving recordings directly to the USB drive instead of to internal storage.
When this feature is configured, the Files Archive list will show the files on the USB drive. This view
is read-only and no file maintenance is possible.
