motion recording.  
Field Rate  
The available rate depends on the  
resolution and the number of channels  
being recorded. For most applications set  
to Max.  
Resolution  
Set the horizontal resolution to 720 or 360.  
The copy function within the Schedule allows  
copying the setting from one channel to  
others. Once the recording schedule for an

other days. To copy the channel or the day  
select the Copy To button.  
The quality level (QL) can be assigned to  
each hour. The level ranges from 1 (low) to 7  
(high). Low quality setting results in high  
compression which takes less storage  
space. High quality setting retains more  
detail with lower compression but takes up  
more space.

to the locale.  
• DHCP  
DHCP is a protocol used to automatically  
configure the network settings of the DVR.  
If a DHCP service is available, choose  
DHCP and select the Apply button. Ask the  
network administrator for more detail.  
• Static IP  
If DHCP is not available or to manually  
configure the DVR, enter the IP address,  
Subnet Mask, Gateway and at least one  
DNS Server. Then select the Apply button.  
If not known the network administrator can  
supply this information.  
To automatically set the date and time select  
Time Server Setup. Then configure the time  
server and the local time zone. The DVR  
must be connected to the network in order to  
use this feature.

obtain the average time among 5 public  
servers (rime.nist.gov, time-a.nist.gov,  
time-b.nist.gov, ntp.nasa.gov and  
clock.isc.org). Then specify how often the  
time is synchronized in minutes. If there is  
a specific time server then select private  
and enter its host name or IP address.  
• Use Password  
Select this option to enable password.  
Enter the password for Administrator using  
the channel buttons 1 ~ 10(ZR-DH921NP :  
1 ~ 9).  
After enabling the password for the first time
