4. After selecting the camera and the recording mode, you have two basic options for creating the schedule:
a. Setting the time manually: Select a day from the Day list, which contains Monday–Sunday. After selecting the day, adjust the start
and end time for that day using the up/down arrows. The timeline (graph) will automatically be updated depending upon the day for
which the schedule has been set.
b. Setting the time with the mouse: Drag the mouse on the calendar grid. For example, drag the mouse to start on Monday at
4:00 AM and end on Monday at 5:00 PM. The start and end time displayed above the grid is updated automatically depending upon
the schedule drawn.
After a schedule is created, you can click on the left or right edge of the recording bar to adjust the start or end time.
You can schedule more than one block of time per day. For example, you might want to record continuously during the day
(8:00 AM–5:00 PM) and only record on motion or alarm from 5:00 PM–8:00 AM the next day. To achieve this, draw three discrete
schedules: 12 AM midnight–7:59 AM, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM, and 5:01 PM–11:59 PM (refer to Figure 51).

5. To repeat this process for each camera, select “Apply Schedule to.” To clear a schedule, select Clear Schedule.
NOTE: To set up a schedule for the whole week, drag the mouse from the upper-left corner of the timeline (12:00 AM on Monday) to the
lower-right corner of the timeline (12:00 PM on Sunday). You can also drag the mouse across multiple rows to set up multiple days.
COPYING AND REUSING A RECORDING SCHEDULE
Right- or left-click a weekday arrow and a menu appears (refer to Figure 52). From this menu, you can clear the schedule for the selected day,
copy a schedule from one day to any other day of the week, or apply the schedule to all the days of the week.
