Delete
– The deletion of a device is a much easier operation than “insertion”. It
removes the selected network camera from the camera list. Highlight the
camera that you want to delete from the list and click
on the “Delete” button.
Using IP surveillance Software (continued)
The selected camera
will be deleted.
History
– Clicking the “History” button will popup a historical camera list, which
lists the latest 16 cameras you inserted into the camera list. 16 is the default
number; you can change the number of the latest installed cameras you want
to keep in the registry. Clicking on one camera in the history list will insert the
camera into the camera list. The historical camera list is shown below.

triggering criteria for the digital input of the
DCS-2000
. The alert
of the digital input can be defined as high-level triggered or low-
level triggered.

Enable motion detect
This will trigger an alert sound that has been specified in the
section titled “Global Settings \ Alert Sound.” Check this option to
enable audio alert for the camera selected.
Enable digital input
This function is similar to “Enable Motion Detect” mentioned
above. Once this option has been checked, a digital input device
will be able to trigger an alert sound and recording.
Record # secs. before event
Once the automatic video recording has been activated, you can
change this setting to regulate the recording of triggered events.
Recording will start from the specified number of seconds before
the alert event has been invoked.
Record # secs. after event
Recording will last for the specified number of seconds after the
alert event has been invoked.
Media Type
You can specify which media type you want to record: Video,
Audio, or both.

Changing the Camera Order in the List
Using IP surveillance Software (continued)
You can “drag and drop” in the grid area of the camera list to change the
sequence of the connected Network Cameras, which is shown below. This will
allow you to rearrange the cameras in an order of your choice. Once the camera
is moved to a specified location, the proceeding cameras will then move 1
position up or 1 position down depending on which direction the selected camera
was moved.
Step 1:
Step 2:
Press the left mouse button
at the gray index field.
Move the mouse to your new
selected location and release
the mouse button. Then Video
1 will be moved (to the 12th
row in this example).
Once you click the “Save” button in the left-bottom corner of this window, the
changes for all camera configurations will be saved and will be applied
immediately to the IP surveillance.

Global Settings
After completing the connection to each remote Network Camera, we need to
configure some global settings for all the cameras. These include the video
database directory, the usage of the Hard disk, and options for video display.
You can activate the global settings window from “Configuration Menu > Global
Settings...” shown above.
All recording processes will be stopped
when activating the global settings
window, indicated by a warning window popped up in advance to keep you
informed.

Directory Settings:
Snapshot directory
The directory for storing snapshots in *.bmp format from video
channels of the monitor and playback programs, which is shown
on page 79.
±
Recording directory
The directory for storing the recorded video data from video
channels.
±
Scheduler directory
The directory for storing the default and user-customized
schedules for the scheduled recording of each channel.
±
Record Diskspace Usage Settings:
Cycle Recording
When you turn this setting on, the video database system of this
application software will overwrite the oldest data if the specified
path has become full. That means it will record video data in a
loop. If this setting is unchecked, a warning message will pop up
when it is approaching the storage space limit. All recording will
stop when the limit of the hard disk usage is reached.
±
Reserved space
Indicate the size of the hard disk that will be reserved for other
Windows applications (at least 15%). The remainder of the hard
disk space will be available for recording. The more space you
have reserved, the less there will be available for your camera(s)
to record to. As you move the bar to the right, more space will be
available for your camera(s) and conversely, less space will be
available for your other applications. If the recording data exceeds
this limitation, the new video data will replace the oldest data (on
a First In First Out (FIFO) basis) when “Cycle Recording” has
been checked.
±
Alert Sound
You can load a custom *.wav file for the sound of alert triggering.
You can also select from the sound files in Windows.
