Recording Functions
Recording Functions
The SC325000 DVR has 4 available recording types: Manual, Schedule, Motion or Sensor.
• Motion: Recording starts when Motion is detected from a Camera input. Motion Recording is
configured through the Motion Menu options. Refer to Page 21 for more details.
• Sensor: Recording starts when the system detects a Sensor Input at the Alarm Block (i.e.
Door Sensor, Window Sensor or Independent Motion Sensor). When an input is detected on
the Alarm Block, recording will begin on the corresponding Camera Channel. Sensor
Recording is configured through the Sensor Menu options. Refer to Page 21 for more details.
• Schedule: Recording starts at a specific date and time. Scheduled Recording is configured
through the Schedule Menu options. Refer to Page 20 for more details.
• Manual: Recording starts when the REC button is pressed.
ꢀ: Indicates the Channel is being
Recorded
E-REC: Indicates that Recording

(QUAD mode recording is
indicated by Q-REC)
Each of these events has a Priority level. This means that one type of event recording will take
priority over another:
• Sensor Event: Highest Priority
• Motion and Manual: Middle Priority
• Schedule: Low Priority.
For example, if the DVR is in Scheduled Recording mode and Motion is detected on a Camera
Input, the Scheduled Recording will stop and Recording will start on the Motion Detection Input

Router Port Forwarding
Router Port Forwarding
You will need to enable port forwarding on your Router to allow for external communications with
your DVR. Enable port forwarding on:
• Port 14337
• Port 14338
Computers, DVR’s, and other devices inside your network can only communicate directly with
each other within the internal network. Computers and systems outside your network cannot
directly communicate with these devices. When a system on the internal network needs to send
or receive information from a system outside the network (i.e.. from the Internet), the information
is sent to the Router.
NETWORK EXAMPLE

External IP
216.13.154.34

DVR

Internet
Internal Network
When a computer on the Internet needs to send data to your internal network, it sends this data
to the external IP address of the Router. The Router then needs to decide where this data is to
be sent to. This is where setting up Port Forwarding becomes important.
Port Forwarding tells the router which device on the internal network to send the data to. When
you set up port forwarding on your Router, it takes the data from the external IP address:port
number and sends that data to an internal IP address:port number (i.e Router External IP
216.13.154.34:14337 to DVR Internal IP 192.168.0.3:14337).
