This article will cover how to set up a recording schedule through the web interface of your recorder. We'll be covering our newer recorders, known as Firmware Version 4.0. If you have a legacy recorder, you can find instructions with one of the links below:
ICRealtime recorders come defaulted to record continuously 24/7 and the hard drive is set to overwrite the oldest footage once the drive is full.
Here we'll cover setting up a recording schedule for motion/intelligent motion detection, but the same rules will apply to recording IVS rules such as trip wires and intrusion boxes. Whichever you choose, you'll need to ensure these are enabled and configured correctly in order for the recording schedule to function properly.
To set up Motion Detection, Intelligent Motion Detection, or IVS rules, see the following links:
- Basic Motion Detection / Video Detection
- Intelligent Motion Detection
- IVS Tripwire
- IVS Intrusion Zone
Newer NVRs: Version 4.0
First, we'll need to navigate to the Storage Settings.
1. From the Main Menu, select 'Advanced Settings.'
2. Select 'Storage Settings.'
3. Click 'Schedule,' modify the Channel option to 'All' to save the configuration to every channel, then click 'Setting.'
4. In the window that opens, select the box 'All' to mark each day of the week, select the box for 'Motion' for Period 1, and then click 'Okay.'
Note: Period 1 will already be set to 24 hours. If Intelligent Motion Detection is also enabled, Motion recording will account for this as well. If you have IVS rules set up, you just have to select the box marked 'Intelligent.'
5. The recording schedule will now reflect the changes made. You'll see a yellow bar indicating Motion Detection running along the length of the time bar for each day. Click 'Apply' to save the configuration.
