Where is video recorded and how long does the recording last?
Video is recorded onto the gateway’s hard-drive which are 160GB to 500GB depending on the model. How long it lasts depends on the quality of video recorded and whether it is configured to record continuously or by event. A single camera recording continuously at 10fps/96Kb SIF (MPEG) will fill approx. 1GB per day. ie: 160GB Hard disk drive – 160 days (4 cameras = 40days) 250GB Hard disk drive – 250 days (4 cameras = 62 days) 500GB Hard disk drive – 500 days (4 cameras = 125 days) Of course recorded video can be downloaded onto a PC at any time and when the hard drive is full new video records over the oldest recordings first.
