The new enhanced color Graphical User Interface (GUI) makes configuration over the network, from the front panel or with the included mouse fast and easy. An Express Setup option allows rapid configuration of time & date, global recording settings and network configuration from a single screen. Choose from continuous, event or schedule recording, or pick the number of days you want to record and the Express Setup does the rest.
