Keep Recording Files
for (1-999 days)
:
The NVR server will keep recording file of specific device for the
number of days you set here. The default value is
30
, and if you want
to modify it, please check the box to start configuring it. Available
value is among
1~999
days.
Specific Storage
You can assign a dedicated storage disk for a camera. By enabling
this option and assigning a specific disk, the video footages will be
recorded only to this selected disk rather than those you select on
Setup
page
Storage
tab. Please remember to configure the
storage-related settings for this specific disk on
Setup
page
Storage
tab after you enable this option.
Set the Schedule
Here you can configure camera
’s recording schedule on 7 days / 24 hours basis. The schedule
is split into segments of 20-minute length. By default, once a device is added to the system, its
schedule is automatically set to full time schedule recording and event handling. You should
configure it according to your system plan.
Go to
Setup
-
Schedule
tab, on
Schedule Setting
panel:

Select the recording mode from
“

Tip
How to make proper storage arrangement
In NVR 3.0 system, there are two file-deleting mechanisms you can use based on different
needs. If both rules are set, the one with the threshold to be reached earlier will execute the
deletion first.
1.
“
Keep Recording Files for (1-999 days)
”
– Set this rule if you have the concern on
how long the recordings are kept, especially when you don’t want the old recordings
to stay longer in the system than a certain period.
2.
“Reserve space”
in the
Disk Drive List
on
Setup
page
Storage
tab - If the disk
space is more critical in your system, please give an approximate value here, the
system will always reserve this amount of space to store the newer recordings.
Given that you set the
Reserve space
as
30G
, while
Keeping Recording Files
setting is
5
days
, certain recording file will be deleted when it has been kept on disk for 5 days, despite
that there is still plenty of available disk space.
Before setting up the rules, you can make use of a handy storage calculator provided by
ACTi to find out the estimated storage your system requires on ACTi corporate website.
