Setting a time period for storing video
To set a time period for storing video, complete the following steps:
- In the Expiration Configuration list, select a camera and then click Add.
- From the Added Cameras list, select a camera.
-
From the Type list, choose one of the following options:
- To delete a video after a period of time, select At Most. If you select At Most, you cannot select the camera for archiving, or delete bookmarked video from the camera.
- To save a video for a minimum period of time, select At Least. If you select At Least, the system attempts to save video from that camera for the set period of time. However, if necessary the system reduces the amount of time for other cameras that are also set to save data on the servers. The system can stop recording video from all cameras to avoid violating the expiration configuration setting.
-
From the Days list, select a period of time.
Note: To apply a time period to all the cameras in the system, use the Type and Days list in the Expiration Configuration area.
- Click Apply.
