Lesson 5.2: Initial System Setup & Recording Modes

DVR/NVR Initial Setup

  • Date & Time Configuration: Set the correct system date and time to guarantee accurate timestamps for evidence

 

  • Recording Mode Configuration: Select and set the operational recording mode

    • Continuous: Records 24/7 constantly

    • Motion Detection: Triggers recording only when movement is detected

    • Schedule: Records strictly during user-defined hours or days

  • Storage Retention & Overwrite: Configure retention time and enable overwrite settings so the recorder automatically overwrites old video files once the HDD reaches capacity
