User Manual
6.5.1 Program Setup
Using the [Program] menu, you can set up a program to use for both Manual & Event and
Schedule & Event. You can adjust the frame rate, video quality and resolution of the program.
Two choices are available: 1) Select a program by the frame rate, quality, and resolution, or 2)
Set up a program manually. For Event Recording, you can select a frame rate up to the
maximum possible for one channel. When events occur simultaneously in more than two
channels, the recording frame rate may be automatically adjusted.
Program
Under the Program menu, a total of 26 programs labeled from A to Z are available for you to define
with the recording resolution and quality for each channel. For more information about the setting
values of the Program menu, please refer to section 3.5.
Ch (Channel)
Indicates a channel number.
R (Resolution)
Indicates the recording resolution. A total of three types are available: D1 (704x480), Half D1 (704x240),
and CIF (352x240).
F (fps)
Indicates frames per second: from 1 to 30fps. The maximum frame rate may vary depending on
settings.
59
Page 61
User Manual
Q (Quality)
Indicates the recording quality: Q5, Q4, Q3, Q2, and Q1. For Event Recording, Q3 or higher is
recommended.
Max R/F
Indicates the maximum frame rate available for a selected resolution. For instance, CIF 30fps
means that you can select up to 30fps for the CIF resolution of a selected channel. D1 30fps
means that you can select up to 30fps for the D1 resolution.
How to Calculate Recording Performance
D1 [704x480] = 2 x Half D1 [704x240] = 4 x CIF [352x240]
120 D1 compressed frames = 240 Half D1 compressed frames = 480 CIF
compressed frames
The resolution and maximum frame rate vary depending on the number of enabled channels.
• When disabling a channel in the Channel settings
How to Disable: Select Menu > Camera Settings > Use Channel > Disable. (The channel is then
grayed out to show that it is disabled.) For example, the SVR-1660C can record every channel at up to
CIF 30fps. If a channel is "Disabled" in the Channel settings, there is then a surplus of CIF 30fps
recording capacity. You can use the —surplus CIF (352x240) 30fps to increase another channel's
resolution to Half D1 (704x240) 30fps (remember from above that CIF x 2 = Half D1).
• Setting a channel's frame rate to "0fps" in the Program settings
Surplus CIF 30fps cannot be used to increase another channel's resolution because the 0fps
channel still uses at least 2 to 3 recording frames per second for various reasons
including network communications. You must disable the channel instead of setting it to
0fps if you want to conserve and use the surplus CIF 30fps recording capacity for
another channel.
Relation Between Normal Recording and Event Recording
When an event occurs, Event Recording is activated with the Program settings. DVR
recording performance varies depending on the model. For example, the recording performance
of the SVR-1660C is CIF 480fps for both Normal and Event Recording. When both recording
modes are in effect, its recording performance cannot exceed CIF 480fps. That means that
Event Recording can be set up for the SVR-1660C only if the total of Event and Normal
Recording of all channels does not exceed CIF 480fps.
60
Page 62
User Manual
• Event Settings in and CIF 480fps Recording Performance
When every channel is set up to record normally at CIF 30fps, the Event Recording settings
of for 1
st
channel are limited to CIF 30 fps, Half 15 fps, and D1 7fps. If you want to set the Event
Recording settings value to D1 30fps, the Normal Recording settings value of the other
channels must be changed to total CIF 360fps or less.
• When Events Occur in Multiple Channels Simultaneously
When events occur simultaneously in multiple channels and the Event Recording settings value
exceeds the DVR's maximum recording performance, the Normal Recording settings value is
retained, and the channels with events drop their Event Recording frame rates settings to
record the events.
The SVR-1680C provides D1 30 compressed frames for all channels; it can record programs
at a manually selected resolution and frame rate at all times.

individually to N.O., N.C. or Off.
6.7.1 Text Setup
Recording
You can turn recording for text input on or off.
Sync Text With
This selects channels to link with text data.
Seek Header
This parameter is not needed if, just like Star Finger-007, protocols are already registered and
supported for various types of data that comes from external devices (Access Control, POS,
ATM, etc.). However, this parameter is needed to see how one unit of data out of continuously
incoming text data is structured. In other words, all data has its start and end points, and the
header is data that is always inserted to indicate the start point. Therefore, by defining a header
here, the DVR can recognize from the header that it is the start point of the data. Two headers
can be set and detected because one device can send various types of data to external
receivers.
Delimiter
The delimiter value may differ depending on the device used. For more information on delimiters,
refer to the user manual or the device manufacturer.
Timeout (ms)
Lines defined below are the maximum number of text lines available for one piece of data. Even
though data is standardized, lengths may differ. For example, three lines are programmed for
client name input for an ATM, but if someone registers only his/her first name and last name,
only two lines are provided when the person uses an ATM. However, the DVR cannot detect this
automatically, so Timeout is used to determine how long is needed to recognize the received
data as complete data after the last line is entered.

Lines
This defines the maximum number of lines for one piece of data.
An external device may not be recognized depending upon it s characteristics,

Digital I/O are digital ports available for input and output at the same time., There are 12 digital
inputs and outputs.
Digital I/O Channel & Input/Output
All 12 channels can be set to input/output. When channels are set to input, if an input signal is
received by even one channel, emergency recording will operate. When they are set to output, if
sensor input is received, it will operate.
In Digital I/O Setup, if you set one of the 12 Digital I/O to [Input], set Input Type to [Emergency]
and turn Digital I/O on, the emergency recording will operate. The macro set in the event
recording is used for the recording. The recording will continue based on the value set in
[Recording After Event] under Event Recording and then stop.
※ SVR-480 does not support Digital I/O.

Type
76
Page 78
User Manual
This is used to select the network type (Ethernet/xDSL) connected to the DVR. Select Ethernet
when the DVR is connected to dedicated line, cable modem or LAN.
Select xDSL when the DVR is connected to a PPPoE-type xDSL line. However, if the xDSL line
is not of the PPPoE type, you must select Ethernet.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) manages host addresses on a network. All the
hosts on a LAN use this protocol to share limited IP addresses when accessing the Internet. In
other words, a DHCP server allocates dynamic IP addresses to all the hosts on the LAN.
If the LAN has its DHCP server and the DHCP menu item is enabled, the DHCP server
allocates an IP address to the DVR.
'DHCP' is used on a LAN with a DHCP server installed. Generally, small and large LANs have
DHCP servers while small LANs use Network Address Translation (NAT) from a hub or router.
IP Addr
IP Address is used for communication between the DVR and Network Manager, and is also
used when Webviewer accesses the DVR. This is available only when Net Mask and Gateway
are set.
Net Mask
Net Mask specifies a range of IP addresses and enables IP addresses in the range to
communicate. Net Mask should be allocated by a network administrator.
Gateway
Gateway must be specified to enable IP addresses to communicate and should be allocated by
a network administrator.
DNS1
DNS1 must be specified to register the DVR to SWR while DNS Address should be allocated by
a network administrator.
Additional DNS
Additional DNS is used to replace DNS1 when it is unstable or has a problem.
Port
