• Over configuration of the system can lead to unsatisfactory performance.
•
Storage Calculator provides recording storage estimate based on the
recording configuration (bit rate estimate of cameras, recording schedule and
retention) of current cameras on NVR versus the maximum Recording storage
drive space supported by the NVR in graphical manner (Percentage recording
storage estimate is displayed and the indicator changes to red if the storage
estimated is above the NVR recording storage capacity).
• Archival storage calculations is not included in the estimation.
• This is an estimate for reference purpose only. While providing a reasonable
storage estimate it should not be inferred that the results are absolute and will
apply to all the systems and locations.
• Recording bit-rate and duration can be dramatically effected by PTZ
cameras, higher levels of activity, image quality, light levels and noise.
• All the Estimator calculations are based on the fixed bit rate (Mbps) and
might vary based on the site environment if the camera is set to VBR (variable
bit rate) mode.
