Milestone XProtect ® Express 1.1Administrator's ManualNameDescriptionSeconds [of post-recording]Specify the number of seconds for which you want to record video fromafter recording stop conditions (that is motion or stop event) are met.Usually, only some seconds of post-recording is required, but you canspecify up to 65535 seconds of post-recording, corresponding to 18 hours,12 minutes and 15 seconds. However, if specifying a very long postrecordingtime, you can potentially run into a scenario where your postrecordingtime spans scheduled or unscheduled archiving times. That canbe problematic since post-recording does not work well during archiving.The template can help you configure similar properties quickly. For example, if you have 20 cameras and youwant a particular frame rate on all of them, you can simply enter it once in the template, and then apply thetemplate to the 20 cameras.NameApply TemplateSelect AllClear AllApply template on selectedcamerasDescriptionSelect which cameras you want to apply the template for. You then use oneof the two Set buttons to actually apply the template.Tip: To select all cameras in the list, click the Select All button.Click button to select all cameras in the Apply Template column.Click button to clear all selections in the Apply Template column.Lets you apply the value from the template to selected cameras.Configure Video & Recording Wizard: Live & Recording SettingsMPEG CamerasThis wizard page only appears if one or more of your cameras use the MPEG video format.Specify which frame rate to use for each camera. You can also select pre- and post-recording, allowing you tostore recordings from periods preceding and following detected motion and/or specified events.Note that all of the properties can also be specified individually for each camera.NameLive Frame RateDescriptionRequired average frame rate for live video from the camera. Select numberof frames, then select the time unit interval (second, minute or hour).If the camera supports dual stream and dual stream is enabled, the LiveFrame Rate column will be read-only with the value Dual streaming—which cannot be altered.www.milestonesys.com 60 Wizards
Milestone XProtect ® Express 1.1Administrator's ManualNameDescriptionLets you select under which conditions video from the camera should berecorded:Record onAlways: Record whenever the camera is enabled (see "General"on page 90) and scheduled to be online (see "Online period" onpage 126) (the latter allows for time-based recording).Never: Never record. Live video will be displayed, but—since novideo is kept in the database—users will not be able to play backvideo from the camera.Motion Detection: Select this to record video in which motion (see"Motion detection & exclude regions" on page 101) is detected.Unless post-recording (see the following) is used, recording willstop immediately after the last motion is detected.Event: Select this to record video when an event occurs and untilanother event occurs. Use of recording on event requires thatevents (see "Overview of events and output" on page 111) havebeen defined, and that you select start and stop events.Tip: If you have not yet defined any suitable events, you canquickly do it: Use the Configure events list, located below theother fields.Motion Detection & Event: Select this to record video in whichmotion is detected, or when an event occurs and until anotherevent occurs. Remember to select start and stop events in theneighboring columns.Pre-recordingSeconds [of pre-recording]Post-recordingYou can store recordings from periods preceding detected motion and/orstart events. Select check box to enable this feature. Specify the requirednumber of seconds in the neighboring column.How does pre- and post-recording work? XProtect Express receivesvideo in a continuous stream from the camera whenever the camera isenabled and scheduled to be online. This is what lets you view live video,but it also means that XProtect Express can easily store received video fora number of seconds in its memory (a.k.a. buffering). If it turns out that thebuffered video is needed for pre- or post-recording, it is automaticallyappended to the recording. If not, it is simply discarded.Specify the number of seconds for which you want to record video frombefore recording start conditions (that is motion or start event) are met.Usually, only some seconds of pre-recording is required, but you canspecify up to 65535 seconds of pre-recording, corresponding to 18 hours,12 minutes and 15 seconds. However, if specifying a very long prerecordingtime, you can potentially run into a scenario where your prerecordingtime spans scheduled or unscheduled archiving (see "Aboutarchiving" on page 118) times. That can be problematic since pre-recordingdoes not work well during archiving.You can store recordings from periods following detected motion and/orstop events. Select check box to enable this feature. Specify the requirednumber of seconds in the neighboring column.www.milestonesys.com 61 Wizards
