Alarm Recording - Velleman DVR1A Manual De Instrucciones

5. Operation
a) Power ON
Before turning power ON make sure the HDD has been locked, and the power LED is red. After pressing the
POWER button, the POWER LED will turn to orange and all the other LEDs will turn RED, except the LED for HDD.
The screen will display "HDD Detecting" ; power on period will be approx. 5 to 15 seconds. If HDD is set as master,
the screen will display "HDD Master Connect". If HDD is set as slave, the screen will display "HDD Slave Connect".
In order to shorten the power on running time, we suggest setting the HDD as master (by means of the jumper on the
HDD itself). When the DVR1A has powered on completely, the POWER LED will turn to green.
b) Recording
Your DVR1A offers a variety of flexible recording modes. You can set it up to record continuously or programmed, or
only to record events ; you can even set the recording speed and resolution. All these options are set through the
system menu. If there should be a power cut during recording, the device will automatically resume recording when
the power returns. The original recording set-up will be respected.
There are 4 recording modes for your device: alarm recording mode, external trigger recording mode, programmed
recording mode and manual recording mode. All recording modes are described here:

1) Alarm Recording

set in the alarm recording mode set-up.
