Plan against the maximum load of each connected camera instead of multiplying the per-port maximum by the number of ports. A Gigabit network uplink connects the recorder to the wider network for authorised access and management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSeparate recording capacity from viewing performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe recorder accepts up to 16 camera inputs, but the number of streams it can decode at high resolution is a separate limit. The HDMI output can support a 4K monitor; that does not mean every connected camera can be displayed at full 4K resolution simultaneously. Size the main streams, substreams and overall bitrate around the actual viewing and recording needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKeep local recording useful for the working day\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLocal recording gives the site a place to review events, locate a time period and export relevant footage. Continuous and scheduled recording can be combined with supported event triggers to suit the installation. Recording duration depends on the installed drives, camera bitrate, frame rate and recording schedule, so a fixed number of storage days should not be assumed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChoose storage for continuous surveillance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse compatible surveillance-grade SATA hard drives designed for sustained camera recording. Check the exact drive and capacity against the recorder’s hardware and firmware rather than choosing by capacity alone. A failed drive or an overwritten recording can still lose important footage, so export critical incidents and maintain any separately required backup process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReview events through an appropriate management path\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSupported VIGI applications provide a practical way to review a site without standing beside the recorder. Use authorised accounts and a properly configured network for remote access. ONVIF provides a route to mixed-camera installations, while advanced detection, two-way audio and other functions remain dependent on the camera, protocol and firmware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMatch the supplied revision to the project\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurrent manufacturer specifications and the earlier UN1.0 datasheet differ in bandwidth, decoding, USB, alarm connections and weight.
