When operating the NVR300, you can perform various tasks. The tasks that can be performed depend on the user access privileges that may
have been assigned to you by the system administrator (refer to Table D for information about user access privileges).
have been assigned to you by the system administrator (refer to Table D for information about user access privileges).
Operational tasks of the NVR300 include the following:
•
Programming a new recording
•
Editing a recording
•
Scheduling a recording
•
Stopping a recording
•
Searching for a recording
•
Playing a recording
•
Deleting a recording
•
Saving a recording in MPEG format to the local hard drive or to any shared network resource
•
Taking a snapshot of a recording (JPEG format)
•
Playing MPEG files using the MPEG Viewer software
•
Monitoring of NVR300 operational status
The following sections provide instructions to perform the above tasks.
PROGRAMMING A NEW RECORDING
NOTE: Service-level access privileges are required to program a new recording.
Programming a new recording involves setting desired configuration parameters for the recording. For a stream that is generated by a PelcoNet
device and is to be recorded onto hard disk drive storage of the NVR300, you can specify information such as the following:
device and is to be recorded onto hard disk drive storage of the NVR300, you can specify information such as the following:
•
Video format (MPEG-2 or MPEG-4) of the recording
•
Continuous or event-based recording, including a predefined weekly time schedule, if desired
Depending on the device capacity supported by the NVR300 unit, up to 16, 32, or 64 PelcoNet devices (up to 100 Mbps) can be programmed as
the source of NVR300 recordings. Each PelcoNet device can generate two streams; therefore, you can program two streams per PelcoNet device.
If the device is a PelcoNet NET4001A, you can program an MPEG-2 stream and an MPEG-4 stream. If the device is a PelcoNet NET350T or
NET300T, you can program two MPEG-4 streams.

To program a new recording, do the following:
1. Open the NVR-Setup page by clicking the NVR-Setup link.
As the NVR-Setup page opens and displays the Programmed Recordings dialog box, the NVR300 searches for all PelcoNet devices on the
local subnet. The New, Remove, and Edit buttons at the bottom of the dialog box are not operational, and the following message appears
at the bottom of the dialog box:
local subnet. The New, Remove, and Edit buttons at the bottom of the dialog box are not operational, and the following message appears
at the bottom of the dialog box:
Scanning the network devices. Please wait!
After a 2-3 second delay, the New, Remove, and Edit buttons become operational (refer to Figure 26).
