You can specify the retention times for recordings. If the available memory capacity of a
medium has been used, older recordings are only overwritten if the retention time entered
here has expired.

Enter the required retention time in hours or days for each recording. Recording 1
corresponds to Stream 1, Recording 2 corresponds to Stream 2.
NOTICE!
The alarm inputs are configured and activated on the Alarm Inputs page (see
Section 10.34 Input Options, page 86).
The numbering of the checkboxes for the alarm inputs corresponds to the labeling of the
alarm inputs on the IP AutoDome.
The motion alarm is configured and activated on the VCA page (see Section 10.45 Advanced
Mode: VCA, page 101 onwards).
NOTICE!
For more information, please see the Alarm Task Script Language document and the RCP+
documentation. These documents can be found on the product CD supplied.
NOTICE!
Make sure that the retention time corresponds with the available memory capacity. A rule of
thumb for the memory requirement is as follows: 1 GB per hour retention time with 4CIF for
complete frame rate and high image quality.
