STORAGE SETUP
You can configure the recording parameters to meet specific retention, resolution, and recording rate targets through the Recording Storage
screen (refer to Figure 55). Enter a desired retention target and allow the system to modify the rate and resolution to achieve that retention
target, or lock specific aspects to see the expected days of storage. The DVR5100 utilizes Pelco’s patented EnduraStor algorithm to capture video
in real time and prune to a lower time-lapse rate after a user-defined delay period. EnduraStor allows you access to recorded real-time video for
the delay period. Real-time video immediately following a security incident makes searching and exporting evidence more effective. Refer to
Table Y on page 73 for more information on storage settings and defaults.
Figure 55. Recording Storage Screen
The Storage screen allows you to specify which storage settings are the most important, such as maximizing the days of storage or maintaining
a high frame rate and resolution. Depending upon your requirements, you can automatically update individual camera settings by clicking the
check box next to the desired setting.
GLOBAL SETTINGS
Global Settings allow you to specify the days of storage, resolution, and stored frame rate for all cameras. By default, the resolution is SIF and
the stored frame rate is 1/1 with 30 frames per second (fps) in live view.
To change a global setting and apply that change to all cameras:
1. Select the check box to activate the control (days of storage, resolution, or stored fps.) Camera settings are updated and fixed to this global
setting.
2. Choose the desired settings from the drop-down lists, and the other values will update automatically.
NOTE: Depending on the values you select for one setting, the range of options for the other settings will be restricted. For example, if you
choose 4SIF, the days of storage are greatly reduced and the range of options for FPS are limited to 1/1 or 1/2.
3. Select the check box to unlock a setting.
NOTE: Changes to global settings will not affect those cameras already locked to a different resolution or frame rate.
