CAUTION: When you update the recorder's frame-size settings, all the recorded video that is currently stored<br />
on the storage media is deleted.<br />
By default, the recorders are allocated equal shares of the available disk space. If you wish, you can allocate the<br />
disk space differently. For example, if three recorders are event triggered, and the other records continuously, you<br />
may wish to allocate 20% of the disk space to the event-triggered recorders, and 75% to the continuous recorder. (It<br />
is recommended to leave approximately 5% of the disk space free for management overhead.) This allocation would<br />
maximize the recording time available for continuous recording without significantly limiting the disk space<br />
available for the recording of events.<br />
Video storage normally follows the FIFO (first-in, first out) model: when the disk space allocated to a recorder is<br />
full, the system automatically erases the earliest recordings from the camera to make space available for new<br />
recordings. If this is not desirable, linear recording can be implemented instead. In this case, recording ceases for<br />
the camera when the disk space allocated to it is full. Recording from the camera can only be started again after the<br />
existing recordings are manually erased (see Erasing Recorded Video, page 104). If you select linear recording, you<br />
can choose to receive e-mail notifications when the disk space is nearly full and when it is completely full. When<br />
linear recording is selected, (WP) (Write Protection) appears in the Camera Summary screen after the recording<br />
type.<br />

CAUTION: When you update a recorder's disk allocation or size settings, all the recorded video that is currently<br />
stored on the storage media is deleted.<br />
NOTE:<br />
TV-Out makes use of the same system resources as the unit’s video recorder. As a result, the global<br />
framerate available for recording is reduced somewhat when TV-Out is enabled. For additional<br />
information, see Configuring a CCTV Monitor (TV-Out), page 28.<br />
