3.2.11 Continuous Recording
The camera can be configured to
continuously save video to a storage device.
To prevent the disk from becoming full, it is
recommended to configure the disk to
automatically remove old recordings. If a
new stream profile is selected while a
recording is ongoing, the recording will be
stopped and saved in the recording list and
a new recording with the new stream profile
will start. All previous continuous recordings
will remain in the recording list until they are
removed manually or through automatic
removal of old recordings.
To start a continuous recording, follow
these steps:
1. Go to Recordings > Continuous.
2. Select Enabled.
3. Select type of storage device from the
Disk list.
4. Select a Stream profile to use for
continuous recordings.
5. Click Save to save and start the
recording.

First attach the network cables and power.
Apply power to the camera system. Cable
ties may also be used to secure the cable to
one of the sidebars.
The camera will power-up as indicated by
flashing amber lights of the camera. A green
light should be displayed once the network
connection is established.
Test the camera by initiating the network
software. Start the IP Setup Program and
select the camera. It should be set to either
automatically acquiring the IP address
(DHCP) or it will display the manually
entered IP address.
At this point, all systems are now
operational and ready for the final pre-
deployment check.

The camera employs a PoE connection that
can be removed and reattached
underwater. The underwater portions of the
connector should be protected from
contamination as much as possible
especially if they remain unconnected for
long periods of time. Special cable plugs are
available as accessories for this purpose.
Check to see that the connections are firmly
attached and the stress relief sleeve is
lightly tightened. The camera system is now
ready for deployment.
